Full details
These Dickies Redhawk Pro Work Cargo Combat Shorts are designed for adult males seeking durable and practical workwear for warmer weather. Their key benefit lies in reinforced construction and ample pocket space, offering both longevity and utility. A potential caveat is that the fabric blend, while durable, might be warmer than purely cotton alternatives for extreme heat. These shorts combine 65% polyester and 35% cotton for a robust 260gsm fabric, featuring triple stitching in stress areas and reinforced back pockets, along with additional holster pockets for tools and essentials.

FAQs
What is the primary material of these shorts?
The shorts are made from a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, with a fabric weight of 260gsm.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
They are designed for warmer weather and are more comfortable than full-length trousers. However, the polyester content means they might be warmer than 100% cotton in extreme, humid heat.
How many pockets do these shorts have?
These shorts feature multiple pockets, including reinforced back pockets and practical holster pockets for tools.
What does 'triple stitched in stress areas' mean?
It means that the seams in areas likely to experience significant stress, such as pocket openings or crotch seams, are reinforced with three rows of stitching for increased durability and to prevent seam failure.
Can I wear these for non-work activities?
Yes, their durable construction and practical design make them suitable for casual wear, hiking, or other outdoor activities where robust clothing is beneficial.
What sizes are available?
These shorts are available in various men's waist sizes. Please refer to the product listing for the specific size range offered.
How should I care for these work shorts?
Machine wash at a moderate temperature with similar colors, tumble dry on low heat, and iron on a medium setting if needed. Avoid bleach and dry cleaning.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose.
Refer to the size chart provided by Dickies and compare it with your measurements. Consider trying a different size if the fit is not satisfactory.
Seams appear to be fraying after initial wear.
Inspect the stitching; if it is a defect, contact the retailer or manufacturer. If it's minor wear, it may be a normal occurrence for heavy-duty workwear, but the triple stitching should offer significant longevity.
Fabric feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Avoid high heat drying and consider using a fabric conditioner suitable for polyester-cotton blends on a subsequent wash.
