Customers consistently praise The Law™ Short for its durable, heavy-duty canvas material that balances ruggedness with comfort. The fit is frequently described as true to size, with a slimmer profile that accommodates active movement while providing a flattering, functional design. Many users highlight the well-placed, practical pockets, especially the mobile phone pocket, and the reinforced construction that holds up to demanding outdoor work, hiking, and casual wear. The shorts are appreciated for their long-lasting quality, softness after washing, and versatility—equally suitable for tough jobs or social outings. The 10” and 12” inseam options offer great coverage, favored by tall and athletic builds alike.
I don’t leave reviews often, but I had to come say something about my recent purchases from KUHL. As a lifter and a tradesman, I struggle to find pants and shorts that fit my thighs, allow free movement, and also look good. These are the best shorts I’ve ever owned. Fabric is significantly tougher than competitors, pocket design is thoughtful and useful, and the gusset is a game changer. There’s really not a single thing I’d change about these. I don’t throw around the term “perfect” a lot, but these are perfect.

Bulletproof...Will last a life time.
For a long time I held off getting these shorts because of the price. I didn't hesitate to buy "The Law" pants for my motorcycle riding years ago, and they still are my go to pants for that activity. I finally came to my senses after numerous pairs of cheaper shorts. These shorts are just as tough and awesome as the pants. So much so I bought ...

Great Work Shorts!
I'm 6'1" at 215 lbs and my I take either a 36 or 38 waist depending on the brand. These shorts run large so I found myself lost in the the 38s so I ordered the 36s and they are perfect.

The Law Shorts
These are very tough, durable shorts. They could be used for work or any outdoor activity, . I doubt you could wear them out.

Serious shorts!
These are some heavy duty shorts, much heavier weight than the other Kuhl shorts I have. Might be a little warm in the heat of summer but I know the durability of these will be tge best of the line. If you needed 1 pair of backpacking shorts that could stand up to the challenge, these would be it!

Not your millennials shorts
Great shorts! Dressy yet very durable. Good for going to church then out working in the yard.
