Purchased these shorts with the intention of using them as an everyday pair of shorts. Overall quality wise they are a nice and strong material. My biggest con to these is the Velcro fly. Now with this Velcro fly its important to understand that is one long strip of Velcro, in other words if you don't have the Velcro evenly attached you risk the potential of your underwear showing in small openings of the Velcro in addition to the chance of it completely tearing open. I learned this the hard way while out with my two year old son running errands. As I was waiting in line at the post office with my two year old. Now as I am standing there it felt like my shorts were sliding down on me but I didn't think anything of it as I wasn't used to the shorts sitting on my hip, should also mention that 20 minutes prior I had used the restroom and struggled for 10 minutes to get the Velcro fly to attach as it kept sticking to my gray boxers, so I attached it as best I could. I hadnt realized that slowly but surely as I was walking from the restroom back to my car, driving to the post office getting out of the car and walking into the post office that the Velcro was slowly ripping apart and then while in line at the post office it completely tore open. I quickly grabbed the shorts to prevent them from falling and re attached the Velcro only for it to rip open a second later, re attach it again only for the same thing to happen.  I finally got it to stay together after a few minutes of being mortified that everyone around me in the post office got a glimpse of my gray boxers. Then my luck would have it again walking out to the car holding my two year olds hand so he wouldnt run off on me the Velcro rips open again. This time one handed I tried to re attach the Velcro which I learned was impossible. So there I am walking in the parking lot of the post office gripping my shorts with a sweaty hand worried that at any second I could drop the shorts, and holding my two year olds hand. I was literally mortified as my shorts were dropping on me as I walked as it became a challenge to grip them with a sweaty hand that kept losing its grip..
After all of this I will keep the shorts but now understand that I must be very careful with the Velcro fly.
