    Looks good, packs small, lots of pockets

    I own three pairs. Wear them constantly. I live in them, basically. I have a few suggestions.

    One is to get a better handle on your inventory, because I like a 10-in length and you never seen have them, only the 9-in.

    Two, make one of the front pockets zippered. I know there is a zipper on the back pocket but I don't like to carry my phone back there or I can't see it. My son lost his phone to a pickpocket in Buenos Aires so I'm a little paranoid about this. An inside front pocket would be good too.

    Three, one of my three pairs - the oldest one - lost the toggle on its zipper so it's a little hard to zip. Not really a problem, and I had been wearing the shorts for years before that happened, but I would rather have a zipper with a toggle.

    But I'm picking at nits. The five stars says it all. I would give them six stars if I could.

    Excellent Shorts

    The fit, styling, and pockets are excellent. The quality of the fabric, lining, and stitching is impeccable. I was reluctant to spend $100 on a pair of shorts from an Internet seller I had no prior experience with, but I’m glad I did. Great job.

    Almost Perfect

    I’m wearing these now on a trip to the UK and Paris, where it’s hot.

    They are comfortable, if cut a bit snug to be “regular” fit. But okay.

    I also miss the additional zippered interior pocket on the front left side that’s present in the pants.

    Comfortable, excellent fit without feeling tight

    I generally avoid anything that is tight and usually wear stuff that me wife feels is too large and baggy for my frame. These pants, despite being well-fitted to me (and my wife agrees), have sufficient stretch to feel comfortable. I like that they look good, don't wrinkle, and are easy to care for while traveling. These are my go-to pants for travel (we're on a trip right now) and looking good to my wife!

    1st choice for traveling

    For me the Ascender shorts are an easy choice when packing when taking a cruise, tour or visiting friends. Great comfortable and easy to dress up or down. Being 6’ tall the 10” length gives a little more flexibility for use at nice dinners as well daily activities. Need more colors restocked!

    Perfect

    These shorts are made of excellent material. Not super-tech material. Very nice material, well-tailored, great for dress or golf.

    Just what I needed

    Conversation with customer service helped me order correct size/style. Perfect fit. I like the hidden and locking/zipping pockets. Easy care is just a bonus.

    Great Shorts

    These shorts are great for travel with a lot of pockets and 3 zipper pockets for valuables. I also love the fit, very comfortable.

    Great travel shorts

    Nice shorts with great, slim fit. Runs a little large, I usually wear a 1” larger waist size. 9” length was perfect on my short legs, come to just above the knees.
