Columbia Men's Cool Creek Stretch Plaid Shorts - Breathable Quick-Dry Outdoor Hiking & Casual Shorts for Summer Activities

I already had one pair of these shorts, and I absolutely love the comfort, the style and the versatility of them. BUT, I have lost a small amount of weight since I bought that pair, and unfortunately Columbia DOES NOT OFFER A 31" WAIST! The 30 is too small, and the 32 is too big... I don't understand why they do not offer these in 1 inch increments, like almost all other clothing manufacturers... I like the them well enough that I'm going to try to have someone add an inch in the waist on the size 30 I just received, but I subtracted two stars for the inconvenient sizing for those of us who are in between what's offered.This is the second pair of these shorts I've ordered. They are great for any athletic or outdoor activity, but fancy enough to go to a bar or restaurant. And, indestructible. I wish Columbia made more shorts in this style.My teenage son is 6'3" tall and skinny and it's hard to find shorts that are long enough for him. These work well, look good, and are well made and durable.Great pants. very light and breethy material.Great fit and look. I bought 5 pair.i got one pair and wore them several times. Came back and bought several more pair in different colors.
