You know that song? "Summer time and the livin' is easy." Whoever wrote it didn't know jack about your job. If you'd have written it, the words would be, "summer time and the nut jobs are uneasy." That's why, even though it's hot out, there's no rest for you. Fights, crashes, drownings, and all the other joys of summer keep you running. But you can keep cool and be dressed for work in a pair of 5.11 Tactical Men's Dark Navy Taclite Pro 11" Shorts 73308 724.
These navy shorts are appropriate uniform wear for all types of first responders. Made of a light but sturdy dark navy, 6.14 ounce material, they're comfortable and breathable. The shorts are 65% polyester and 35% cotton that's woven into a ripstop cloth. Ripstop fabric has a special weave that's designed to prevent--you guessed it--ripping, so these are sturdier than your average shorts.
Since most first responders find themselves coming into contact with all sorts of chemicals, oils and other messes, you'll appreciate that these shorts are treated with Teflon so they resist stains and spills. They're also fade and wrinkle resistant; wash them every night if you want to, and they'll still look great after months of constant wear.
Unlike other shorts with shorter inseams, these have an 11" length that's more covering and modest. You're not at the beach--you're at work and your shorts need to remember that. Instead of restricting, 5.11 gave these a fully-gusseted crotch which offers you a full range of movement. The action waist is comfortable, stays up where it's supposed to, and provides excellent fit. And along the waist band, thick and strong belt loops can support a sidearm or other heavy equipment.
5.11 makes sturdy clothing for well-equipped Working Men. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel and come up with their own versions of zippers and other fastenings, 5.11 relies on excellent parts. The shorts close with a YKK zipper, have Prym snaps, and utilize genuine Horn buttons. Each part of these shorts provides the high level of excellence you rely on from 5.11.
There are enough pockets in these shorts for all the gear you carry every day: two cargo pockets on each thigh, a magazine/phone pocket on the left cargo pocket, and a knife pocket on the right front. At the rear, slash pockets hold cuffs and quick-ties. Inside the magazine and knife pocket, you'll find 100% Cordura nylon reinforcements.
