Horny Toad made the relaxed-fit Men's Gig Shorts from DCT (that's Damn Cool Twill to you), which the company reports to be strong like a rhino and soft like bunny. DCT is a functional, durable blend of cotton and nylon that feels casual and comfy but dries quickly and resists wrinkles. The Gig Shorts have plenty of pockets for Clif Bars, keys, bottle openers, and bottle rockets.
Bottom Line: The Horny Toad Gig Shorts are itching to get out and go.
do not have large thighs. These seem to be more designed thinner legs. They do run a little small like most shorts on this site so keep that in mind if you are considering. I would easily keep them if they did fit.
Nice feel and I like the look of the shorts. There's an extra zip pocket alongside the regular front pocket on the right. This seems somewhat bulky to me and makes the pocket seem shallow and prone to widening out like a taco. They might be a tad tight on me - not sure if the problem would go away with a slighter looser fit or a larger size. I usually don't like the extra bulk of that kind of pocket on what is a fairly straight-up kind of short.
