Best Flat Front Shorts for Men of 2025

"I chose these shorts in three different colors for the Lee name and the incredible sale price. I was pleasantly surprised that they lived up to their reputation! The slightly stretchy material makes them perfect for various activities, and they also look smart with a nice shirt."

"These shorts are probably the most comfortable I've ever owned. The spandex material meant I had to buy a size smaller, but it resulted in a perfect fit. They look great, don’t wrinkle easily, and have big deep front pockets. I think they’re priced correctly and would happily buy more!"

"I’ve bought numerous pairs of these shorts and they are amazing! Great fit and quality. They fit nicely and the material feels substantial. I really appreciate how they stretch and hold their color well after multiple washings!"

"I was initially drawn to these shorts because of the positive reviews and affordable price. They fit perfectly and are incredibly comfortable. After many washes, they still look brand new—no signs of wear at all. A fantastic value for the price, and I’ll definitely purchase them again."

"After a year of searching for secure back pockets in shorts, I decided to try these Amazon brand ones. I was pleasantly surprised by the solid stitching and sturdy buttons. The inseam felt a bit longer at first, but after wearing them, it became comfortable. I wish the front pockets were a bit deeper, but overall, they are a great alternative to more expensive brands. I'm planning to buy a few more pairs to replace my worn-out shorts."

"I was pleasantly surprised by how nice these shorts turned out to be. The material is incredibly soft and very comfortable. I appreciate the high-quality finish on the inside, which I haven’t seen before. They wash well without wrinkling. I used to buy Carhartt, but they got too pricey and changed their sizing; now these shorts have become my new favorites!"

"These shorts fit perfectly and look great! I'm thrilled that my girlfriend approves too!"

"I wear shorts year-round, and these are lightweight with good stretch. They're exactly what I wanted!"

"The shorts are well made and quite comfortable, but I wish the pockets were a bit deeper."

"I absolutely love these shorts! They fit well and are super comfortable. I got them in khaki and grey. Just a heads-up, though: don’t wear them to the airport. The zipper triggers the scanner, resulting in a crotch pat down. It happened to me twice, and let’s just say it was a memorable experience!"

"These shorts are fantastic! Great length for me at 6'4" and I wear them often around the house. They fit perfectly and I couldn't be happier!"

"I bought these for my husband and he loves them. Great quality and fit just as he wanted. They do attract a little lint, but nothing to worry about. Overall, a great purchase!"

"I absolutely love these shorts on my husband. I sized up because they are slim fit, and they can be dressed up or down. The look is fantastic!"

"These shorts are well made and super light. Even after two years, they haven't faded or worn out, and there are zero wrinkles."

"I found the fit to be perfect for my tall frame. They're basic yet comfortable, and I appreciate the eco-friendly washing instructions. Plus, I got them at a great price!"

"I bought these shorts for my husband in a few colors. They fit perfectly at the waist, so they are true to size, but they are a little long. Lightweight and soft feeling!"

"After reading reviews, I decided to order a size 34. I’m glad I did because they were a little big in the waist, but the length was accurate, just above the knee. The material is very soft and these shorts are well made. Perfect for summer!"

"I usually buy Lands End and LL Bean shorts, which are high quality. These shorts are a price bargain for everyday wear, and they come in more color choices than Lands End. They are not stretch shorts, which I prefer."

“These shorts have been my go-to for years. While a couple of my older pairs are starting to wear out, they generally last a long time! I appreciate the great quality and perfect 8” length. The discrete phone pocket is my favorite feature, and I typically buy a new pair or two when they’re on sale.”

“My husband has recently lost weight and has always loved Dockers. I found these shorts to be a great fit at a fantastic price.”

“I really like the color and material, but I found the size to be off. I recommend purchasing one size larger for a better fit.”

"I absolutely love these shorts! I ended up getting six pairs, and I’m officially done with baggy cargo shorts. These look smart and are perfect for my age (I’m 66). The fit is just right for my 5'8", 170 lbs frame in a 34 waist. I did notice that the material varies by color; the black ones are heavier and a bit fuzzy, while others feel smoother. But that's pretty common in clothing. My only issue is finding the hidden zipper pocket advertised—I couldn't locate it, even with my wife's help. On the bright side, the cell phone pocket fits my iPhone 15 with an OtterBox case perfectly!"

"I have to say, I really like the quality of these shorts. My husband wears a 46" waist, and they fit him well. The length is about 3 inches above the knee. One important detail for him is the placement of the belt loops; he appreciates when the two front loops are close to the button area, which prevents constant adjustments. He loves the color too, as it pairs nicely with many of his shirts. I would definitely recommend these for anyone looking for high-quality men's clothing in plus sizes."

"These shorts are a staple in my wardrobe. I've got 15 pairs of Dockers khakis! Although I love them, I do find the fit of these shorts a bit tighter than usual. While the waist is true to size, the classic cut feels snug around the body, especially when sitting. They look great and are made from a heavier fabric, making them dressier, but I wish there was a relaxed fit option available. Still, they are very wearable and good value for the price!"

"I found the perfect fit with these shorts, and they look stylish while being a great value for the price. I have no complaints!"

"As someone with a hard-to-fit 33" waist, I appreciate that the stretch material accommodates me well. The color is vibrant, and they are comfortable with deep pockets."

"I ordered a 33 waist, and although I had to stretch them a little to button, I think a 34 would have been too loose. They hit about 2 inches from my knee, and I was happy they arrived wrinkle-free and ready to wear."

"I found these linen shorts to be simple and stylish, perfect for summer wear. They're lightweight and look nice for casual outings or vacations."

"When I ordered these shorts, I was glad I checked the size chart. The fit was perfect, and they are comfortable, though the material does wrinkle a bit."

"My fiancé really liked the material, but they were too big for him, so we had to return them for a smaller size."
