An adaptation of our legendary 5.11 Stryke Pant, the Stryke Short is built from our exclusive 4.84 oz. Flex-Tac mechanical stretch fabric for lightweight mobility and resilience, and is treated with Teflon to repel stains, spills, soil, and light precipitation. Featuring roomy front a rear pockets, dual multi-purpose thigh pockets, and twin low-profile cargo pockets with internal compartments sized for AR magazines, the Stryke Short offers more than enough space to store your tactical kit. A full running crotch gusset eliminates constriction and ensures full freedom of movement, while a secure and adaptive waistband keeps your gear stable when you're on the move.

Great fabric and quality
These shorts fit well and are comfortable. They are my favorite shorts to wear biking or just around. The fabric is easy to care for with little to no staining. The make is good quality, they are easily my favorite brand of shorts.

These are my new favorite shorts.
Honestly 5.11 really doesn't need to charge the price they do for a pair of shorts, even if it is made of super-modern military-grade nylon. But they work. So far I've owned these for almost a year and they seem to hold up. Maybe I'm just being careful with them because a lot of other people have reported their shorts/pants ripping at the crotch on them, but mine seem to hold up. So at least we know the washer ain't destroying them.- They're a lot lighter than ordinary cargo shorts, and they feel really comfortable too.- While they don't have the elastic waistband that the Stryke Pants do, that's nothing a good old velcro belt won't fix.- There's no other difference in the shorts versus the pants EXCEPT that the front pockets feel a lot bigger. I can get four fingers into the front pockets of these shorts, and only three fingers into the stryke pants. The fabric feels somehow stretchier on the shorts.- The magazine pockets don't come apart at all; they're just long pockets half the length of the main pocket side by side. So try not to put anything small in there that you wouldn't be able to reach, like your keys. Honestly I can fit my whole EDC into these pants. With so much gear you don't want to go running in them, but everything is tight enough on the body that you can if you want. In fact I use these in the gym, because I just feel naked without my EDC.

Best shorts ever!
If you're on the fence about buying these like I was, then go for it. No regrets at all. They're so incredibly comfortable that I took a nap in them. They don't look like they'll be able to hold much but , believe me when I say that they do. I like them so much that I'm going to buy them in every color offered.

Does Most of the Job
I've had these shorts for some time. I've found two areas that need improvement. Both back patch pockets are too narrow to easily carry a folding wallet. The wallet fits snugly through the pocket opening and sometimes requires two hands to take it back out. 2. The fly zipper is rough, even after soaping. The advantage of 5.11 shorts is that they come in odd waist sizes i.e. 35, 37 et.

Great Shorts
My only complaint about these shorts is too many pockets. Don't get me wrong, I use them all, but there are a lot of them.They are well set up. The pockets have purposes. They are well designed and they are great. Just a lot.If that is my only complaint though, they are great. They fit well. They flex a bit for fit. They are very comfortable and they hold up well. I am hard on shorts and I wear them most days. These show no wear and tear. They look the same as when I bought them. I will buy these again.
