The new paramount nylon shorts

The North Face Paramount Cargo Short - Men's

The North Face Paramount Cargo Short - Men's

Rating for this product: 4 April 6, 2009

I had a pair of these bought for me for this deployment. I never liked nylon gear, because it's like wearing garbage bags, so I never tried 'em. (it's VERY hot and humid where I am in africa, and nylon doesn't absorb)
One day I was desperate, and decided to try them out. Great choice. Not only do they do a good job resisting the abuse from salt water, but they don't stain as easily either. They dry quicker too. Perfect for a work short in our enviroment. After that, I searched for more. I got a pair in every colour. They arrived here VERY fast. How, I've no clue. I was a bit disappointed when I found out their integral belt's buckle had changed style, and the nylon used in the belt had changed as well. I MUCH prefer the older style, as there is less to break. The newer buckle relies on some little plastic spring clip, and I don't trust it. Nor do I like the material used, in lieu of the cordura nylon used in the older shorts' belt. I'm just nitpicking here, but I wanted to share it nonetheless. Are they worth 45 dollars a pair? No. No shorts should cost that much. But they were the best thing going for my rough conditions, so I bought them. They truly are durable, very high quality shorts for any condition. If the price doesn't sway you, I highly recommend them.
