Great purchase!
Size: 40, Color: 01white Camo
I bought these shorts as consideration for team uniform and they exceeded my expectations! Great quality, nice style, comfortable and not too heavy. Material is cotton and the fit is perfect. Got a little bit bigger because I wanted it to be a more relaxed fit but Iโ€™d say these shorts are true to size.

fit fine
Size: 42, Color: 01black Camo
tbh, they are a little bigger then I expected. seems like a lot of people claimed they fit small, so I ordered a size up and they are a little more loose then Iโ€™d normally want. the material is slightly different, maybe a bit more stiff, but still pretty comfortable for the price. Iโ€™d order them again.
