Rugged Flex®
Carhartt Rugged Flex® technology moves and stretches with you throughout the day so that whatever you're doing, it's easier to do.
Rugged Flex® garments must meet the Carhartt's defined standards for stretch, recovery, and durability, so when you put on a Rugged Flex® garment, you know it won't let you down. You'll find Rugged Flex® in shorts, shirts, pants, jackets, and boots because you need gear that helps you move, not gear that holds you back.
NOTE: If your measurement falls between sizes, buy the larger size.

Carhartt shorts
My husband loves almost everything about these shorts. He says for him he wishes the pockets were deeper and he doesn't like the flaps on the pockets. Other than that, he loves them.
