Customer Reviews Columbia Big & Tall Silver Ridge Cargo Short (42-54)

Pros: amount of pockets, nice colors, convenient belt, light weight. Cons: none yet, but there could be a possible con which only time will tell. Although it features Ripstop 100% nylon i was thrown off by how thin the material is which is fine as long as they hold up and don't rip. Will update in the future.

Perfect shorts for outdoor activities. I did not know what type of material they were before ordering but assumed cotton type. They are actually synthetic and super thin light weight. Which is great when doing stuff in the hot sun. They breath awesome and the fit is just right for my relative large waist at 44. Definitely will be ordering more of these

Very comfortable to wear. Light and airy. As the material is very light, I anticipate they will wash well and dry very quickly. Perfect for hiking and travelling.

I am a larger guy, football build. For that reason I ordered the 46 instead of the 44. Perfect fit. Love the option of a longer short as I am 6'2". Comfortable and a great look. Like the look of the pockets on the back vs flat/no pocket look. Hope to order a few more very soon.

These shorts are exactly what I have been looking for. They are lightweight, comfortable and durable. They also dry quickly. There are a good amount of good sized pockets. I have purchased many different colors in these shorts because I like them so much and they fit what I am looking for, especially for the summer part of my job.

Comfortable, dries quickly, highly recommend!

These are my husbands go to pants year round. The elastic waist helps with comfort and they cone in 2 lengths and lots of colors. Never stop making these!

Great fit. Perfect for warm, humid weather. Shorts dried quickly after being caught in the rain. I have several pairs and will buy them again when needed.

These shorts are really comfortable and incredibly lightweight. Definitely a pair of shorts for the summer heat and humidity.

Love these shorts, they feel lite and airy. Great flexibility and comfort. Will buy again.

I am so glad I ordered these shorts! In Florida is it hot and wet and miserable all "summer" long. These shorts breathe really well, stay dry (or dry quickly), and provide the perfect amount of coverage I was looking for. I can squat and bend just fine in them and the pockets hold everything I could need.

love them. will be ordering more

comfortable, casual and true to size

I ordered another pair 12 hours after receiving my first pair in the mail. These pants are very light meaning you can pack 2-3 of these to every 1 other short pants while traveling. If I had only 1 suggestion for Columbia on this product: make the belt loops wider.

I purchased these for my husband as he likes the material. He said they were the most comfortable shorts he has had and plan on buying more!

Just bought for Kayak fishing and these works great. After a day fishing it dry withing minutes.

I had missed the part about the nylon. But they are uber comfy and feel athletic. I wear them for hiking and or just hanging out

Great shorts for outdoor activities. Light and Thin material for maximum coolness. Fit was true to size. Enough pocket space to carry what you need. Comes with belt with easy removal.

These shorts are a must-have for summer months in the south. They are made of a thin, breathable material, which helps combat the humidity.

My husband is a big man, finding shorts for him is difficult, but these shorts are perfect. They have some give at the waist and he likes that it has a belt. They are quick drying and keep him cool and comfortable in the heat and they wash up great. He has another pair like these, different color. They were his favorite go to shorts on our trip to the Southwest last summer. They look great, function well and fit him perfectly. The perfect trifecta.

Runs big but great comfort.

perfect for all outings

Love these shorts. They remain nice and cool in hot weather and dry quickly. Love that they added a more trendy color than your typical khaki.
