These lightweight men's flight shorts are praised for their durability, sun protection, and water repellency. Customers appreciate the perfect fit, quick-drying feature, and the ample pockets ideal for travel essentials. While opinions on the fabric are mixed, the overall quality and comfort are highly rated.

"I've only worn these a couple days now, but I like them. They fit well around the waist, are snug enough around the thighs to look good but give me enough flexibility that I can hike/run without any problems. One unexpected thing I really like compared to other shorts is the angle of the opening of the front pockets - I never need to worry about my phone falling out. All and all, I plan on buying more the next time they're on sale!"
"My husband doesn't love many items of clothing, but he does rave about these shorts. They look very smart and feel comfortable. Best of all, ironing is not needed!"
"The shorts are great, like all Flight style shorts. Pocket cut however, is still not quite there. The previous “rounded inner” version was not so good if one has larger hands, now the access at 180deg. to the waistband can still be difficult. Vertical or no greater than 45 deg to the side seam would be good."
"These are the second pair I have purchased. Love these comfy shorts."
"Great fitting an comfort"
"As a leading brand in outdoor wears i was expecting a quality pair of hiking shorts. To find faulty stiching around the hem i was dissapointed. They are a great look and comfortable fit. Im happy to pay for quality but im afraid these shorts dont quite stack up."
"Well made clothing and comfortable to wear"
"Good"
"I have had many pairs of these shorts over the past 5 years and I keep refreshing my wardrobe with a new season colour. Comfortable for home and stylish for going out, this colour short goes with every shirt I own."
"Good fabric and style. A good buy at special price"
