    Dutch Shorts

    The Dutch Shorts are on Mass Drop for $25 if anyone is interested. You can even upgrade to a couple of the printed versions for a few dollars more. The ship date is September 26, 2018.

    This is one of those products I want to talk myself into for some reason...but never had a need. Hopefully it's not the usual Massdrop million-day lead time.

    Just pulled the trigger and went with the standard green to save a few bucks. Hoping it ships in time for an upcoming trip the week after. I've been going back and forth on these and finally decided to just go for it and save the weight of an extra pair of camp shorts that I rarely use anyway.

    It is us shipping them out. We put a September 26th ship date and we put it that far out because we felt that was doable no matter how many sell. If I were a betting man I would bet we beat that date by a lot.

    Is the pocket functional? I seem to always need one when around camp.

    I'll take that bet! Leaving Oct. 3rd, so delivery by the 2nd would be awesome. Now, I'll just have to twist One-Clicks arm to pull the trigger....

    I'm gonna have to see these in person. I think my running shorts with a liner are perfect, so no need to change just yet.

    It is functional. It is about the size of a cell phone. It is inside on the hem with the sock cord draw string. The amount you cinch the draw string determines the weight it will hold but I find a cell phone to be no problem. You can kind of flip it outside but it looks kinda funny that way but it still works.

    I got my massdrop tracking number this morning and looks like delivery by Friday the 14th! That's close to 2 weeks earlier than expected. Now, I just have to get home before my wife that day so I can snag the package.

    Mine are on the way as well. Looks like they're expected Friday on my end as well. Picked up the Boreal PrivacyX print. Great to see these shipped so far ahead of schedule.

    I kept going back and forth on purchasing these. Did I really need them, no. But I really wanted a pair for some reason. I was also hesitant having not seen them in person. The massdrop offering made it a little more of an easier splurge purchase with the discount.

    I'm pretty stoked to receive these. As long as I can keep the shots family friendly, I'll try to post a few photos on the forums. It might be helpful to others who want to see them on someone other than Dutch and not get distracted by his sexy legs.....
