    Had a pair of Humvees for a month now. So pleased with them i am going to buy a second pair. I think they are good value too.

    I've had a pair of Humvees for about 3 years and they are still as good as new. Plenty of pockets (although the rear map pockets are, imo, a bit pointless). They are great shorts and I'll be buying a pair of 3/4 ones soon.

    I've got some 3/4 humvee and find them a bit baggy, maybe I got a size too large I don't know. I've also got a pair of endura singletrack shorts and they're excellent.

    Yeah Humvees or Singletracks, you can't go wrong with either to be honest.

    I've got some standard length Endura shorts, with a waterproof bum, which I think are great.
