Review Summary
Updated October 2, 2026

The Femund Cotton Cargo Shorts are a durable and versatile option for those seeking a reliable pair of shorts with ample storage. Their standout features include a robust, high-quality fabric that reviewers consistently praise for its strength and longevity, with one user even receiving a replacement pair due to premature wear on an older model. The shorts are also highly regarded for their numerous and well-designed pockets, particularly the side pockets which are perfectly sized for a phone.

Based on the reviews, the main activity these shorts are recommended for is everyday casual wear in warm weather, with several users highlighting their suitability for daily use. Beyond this, they are also frequently used for hiking, as well as other outdoor activities like gardening, cycling, and climbing.

In terms of fit and comfort, the shorts generally offer a good fit, with one reviewer noting they remained comfortable after several washes. However, there are some inconsistencies regarding sizing. While one tall and thin individual found a size M to fit best despite usually wearing an L, another user who typically wears an L found these shorts to be a bit large. A common criticism is the lack of elasticity in the waistband, which some reviewers found to be a bit tight or preferred a more flexible design. One user also expressed a desire for a slightly longer length.

In conclusion, these shorts are highly recommended for individuals seeking a durable, pocket-rich, and versatile option for everyday casual wear in warm climates, with strong secondary recommendations for hiking and other outdoor pursuits. They are particularly well-suited for those who prioritize robust construction and ample storage over a highly elastic waistband. Potential buyers should pay close attention to the sizing recommendations and consider trying them on if possible, given the varied feedback on fit.

I have had one of these shorts earlier - the are really comfortable. I like the mobile pocket inside the pocket and the little pocket with zippers for cards and pocket change. The loose fit makes it especially nice to wear on hot summer days. It is also very tough/ doesn’t rip easily and can take a biting.

Superb cargo shorts

This is my second pair, so I'm a big fan of these shorts. They have all the features I want, especially all the pockets a cargo shorts should have. I particularly like the side pockets, which are just right size for a phone, but no larger. The fabric is very durable, as I have come to expect from Norrøna. I'm fairly tall and thin (182 cm, 72 kg), and I usually take a size L in pants. But for these shorts M turned out to fit me best. Still OK fit after several washings. My only quibble is that I would have liked a cm or two longer length, but that's just me. All in all, a great cargo shorts!

Been using this shorts for a while, both for hiking and for everyday casual use. Works great for both, and I think it will build a nice patina over time.
