Overview
Built to fit the needs of the avid angler, the Aftco M82 Tactical Shorts use a combination of high-tech fabrics and fishing-specific features to ensure peak performance. Incredibly durable and lightweight, the Aftco M82 Tactical Shorts are made using a 2-way rip stop construction and an airy 95/5 blend of polyester and elastene.
Offering plenty of storage as well, the shorts feature two Velcro pockets on the back, two hand pockets, and a convenient plier pocket on the right-hand side. Complete with a DWR finish, the Aftco M82 Tactical Short won't soak up water like traditional cotton shorts or jeans - in case you get caught in downpour or decide to take a dip in the lake. Finished with stylish sublimated graphics, the Aftco M82 Tactical Shorts deliver serious performance for those who are serious about fishing.

Comments: These shorts are the best! Very light, comfortable and dry quickly! The one funny thing I really like about them is the button is tied on with a strap so to speak....not sewn like your normal button on a pair of shorts which makes this much stronger. As far as size, I normally lean towards a size 38 so this is what i ordered and they were way to big. I returned and ordered a 36 which is perfect. I still need a belt but if I ordered the next size down, they would have been to tight. Hope this helps.

Comments: Awesome AFTCO shorts. A lot of the options you look for in a great pair of fishing shorts. The water beads right off them and keeps you cool on warm summer days. You won't be disappointed.

Comments: I ordered these shorts in size 34. I am 6'1 and 175. My usual size is a 33 but it is not an option offered. I like the shorts & they do have an extra inch at the waist, This is not a problem with a belt. I like the shorts so far & they seem light and comfortable. Since the material has no stretch a size 32 would have been restrictive. I ordered the matching face mask & would recommend them.

Comments: These shorts are outstanding they have plenty of pockets for storage, and a dedicated plier pocket which is a plus, they are very light weight and comfortable, the only thing I think could make these shorts even better is if they were a little longer in length.
