Questions & Answers

Is it possible to see through the neutral color?

These aren't transparent in any way. If they could, my grandchildren would put them on every day. They're high-quality and low-maintenance, which is a blessing!

Is the size of the items correct?

The issue is that, like all other fishing-related shorts, they are only available in even sizes. The Aftco shorts have an elastic waist band, so if you're a 33" waist (I'm more or less a 34"), they'll still fit you. I was a size 38 a year ago, and I could still wear them, but the legs were too big. If you're in between sizes, the elastic is stretchy enough to allow you to go down a size. I'm approaching a 32" waist now, but the 34 works well for me. I hope this information is useful; these are fantastic shorts.

Is there a way to find out how long the inseam is?

I've bought three pairs in the last two years, two black and one blue, with a 6 inch inseam on each pair.

What is it about these children's shorts that makes them so pricey?

They are of excellent quality and do not degrade over time.

Selected User Reviews For AFTCO M01 Original Traditional Fishing Shorts

For some, this is a perfect match
5/5

These shorts were a lot of fun to wear. Because AFTCO is hard to come by where I live, I had to order them online, and I was modeling the shorts for my wife when she pointed out that my penis was protruding beyond the bottom of the shorts. Initially, I was flattered because I don't have particularly large genitalia. I do believe, however, that I will need to purchase a new pair of shorts for Memorial Day Weekend.

I really like these shorts, but the legs are a little too wide
4/5

They're tough, but they're not heavy. The cordura-lined pocket is ideal for holding my pocket knife without risking wearing down the pocket's corner. The width of the legs is too much for me, so I deducted a star. Despite the fact that my thighs aren't particularly large, they still appear to be parachuted. I was able to solve this problem by modifying them. If you prefer a slightly more tailored look, these shorts are still worth it even if you pay a little more to have them altered.

I bought a second pair of these shorts because I like them so much
5/5

I had hoped for something like this. After a big meal, I need durable and lightweight shorts that stretch as much as my stomach needs. Camping, fishing, and just about anything else come to mind. They annoy my wife. I wear them a lot because I'm a big fan of them. Maybe if she buys me a new pair of shorts, she won't have to worry about my neighbors noticing that I'm wearing the same pair every day.

That's all there is to it for AFTCO
5/5

V 2. For a trip, I needed some new shorts. br>These are extremely comfortable and well-fitting. br>Because the leg holes are a little big, make sure you're wearing boxers. Unless you enjoy a slight breeze, of course. br>br>While the color is attractive, your underwear is visible. As a result, make sure you're dressed in your baby shark briefs.

Swimming trunks that are very nice
5/5

These are excellent shorts that dry quickly, have plenty of pockets, and do not easily rip or tear. I wear a nylon belt to help with the pull of the waves. I'll admit, they're on the short side; not too short, but if you're not careful, you might get a peep show when sitting in a beach chair.

It's a bit pricey, but it's well built
5/5

These were requested by my grandson, so I gladly obliged. They're pricey, but well worth the money. He is smitten with them. He has long legs, but they are on the "short" side. I believe there is a longer version, so if you are tall and don't want your shorts to be "short," those are the ones to go for.

For active boys, this is the ideal short
5/5

There's no way to go wrong with Aftcos. I buy 2- My now 14-year-old son gets three pairs of shorts every year, and they are the only ones he wears - throughout the year Yes, the price for shorts is outrageous, but we get far more value for our money. They've stood up to a lot of abuse (fishing, swimming, etc. ) and are still in excellent condition to pass down to little brother.

I like the material, but it's a big investment, and I'm worried about its longevity
3/5

Expensive; I like them/the material enough, but at $50+, I expected overall perfection. Although it appears to be of good quality, I had to trim away a lot of fraying threads that were coming loose from the non-essential extra material on the inside of the belt loops after the first/only wash (air dry). On the inside of the waist band, I had to trim some threads as well. I'm hoping this isn't a recurring issue that results in unraveling and a waste of money after each wash. Despite the elastic waist band, they are a little tight around the waist. I'm anywhere between 185 and 190 pounds depending on the week. I'm 5'11' and weigh 190 pounds with a waist measurement of 35/36.
