Tight Fit

High quality construction but tighter than other brands. Recommend ordering a size up unless you are slim fit.

Tactical Short

Purchased these shorts for intense workouts and races based on the name and description. After only 3-4 times of use the inseam on the waist band is falling apart, fraying from the stitching. For someone who purchases their products regularly I am severely disappointed. Definitely doesn’t live up to its name!

The Quality And Size Has Gone Down Hill

I love these shorts but the quality has gone hill, in 4 months both pairs I purchased are fraying at the waistband. Way smaller than the pairs I purchased 5 years ago. Really disappointed because I do like the shorts, wish they were made better.

Waistband Quality Issues

Loved the earlier versions of these shorts, but unfortunately they’ve changed the waistband material/quality. The new waistbands do not stretch well, and the stitching breaks down very quickly. Recently purchased three pairs in size large, and all three waistbands are unraveling in several places.

Tactical Work Out Shorts

Took over a month to get shorts and they run small. Not great experience!

Issues With The Waistband Stitching.

Bought 3 pairs, within 2-3 months, the stitching on all 3 pairs was starting to come out. I ended up qualifying for a gift card for the warranty, but still not sure if the issue has been fixed in recent product runs.

Size Change And Poor Return Games

I ordered multiple replacements for my tactical shorts during the Christmas sale (had my others for 4 years with daily wear). Same shorts, same colors- totally different fit. Tenthousand shutdown returns after Christmas so I am stuck with 3 pair that do not fit. The colors were black and gray, so not seasonal colors that have final sales btw.

Disappointing Fit On An Otherwise Great Short

Having owned the Session, Interval, and Foundation shorts, I’ve come to expect nothing but excellence from this brand. The Tactical shorts continue that trend in terms of premium materials and aesthetic—the zippered pockets are a fantastic, functional touch. However, I’m giving these a lower rating due to a clear quality control issue. The waistband is significantly too tight for the garment, causing the fabric to pinch and create awkward creases. At this price point, I expect flawless execution, and unfortunately, these fell short.

Nice Short With Some Waistband Issues

Overall I really want to like these shorts —have used them for workouts, light hikes, and yoga—unfortunately the stitching on the waistband is already coming out after just a few uses. For the price and appearance of quality I’d expect better. Overall look and design are great, I just hope TT takes another look at the waistband stitching.

Disappointing—poor Quality For The Price

I’ve had 2 pairs of the Tactical Shorts, and I love the design and fit but they feel cheaply made. I thought they might have figured that out after the first round, but nope. On my second pair, ordered 8/2025, the waistband seams started blowing out literally the second time I put them on. I can still wear them, but they’re falling apart. I guess QC is not a priority.

Sizes In A Large Are Different

Hello I bought a large and they fit perfectly. They were amazing, versitile and durable. . . Perfect! Bought a second pair and the size was complely different. I just can use them at all. Total bummer

Poor Quality

I’ve never tried these shorts and I’ve always washed them on gentle. But there’s snacks in the material threats to hang out in the waist line is almost completely falling apart, not worth the price.

Great Shorts, Until They Fall Apart

I have three pairs of these, and they've become my favorite shorts. They are near perfect, until they start to fall apart, which has happened pretty quickly for me. I certainly don't abuse them (no "tactical" activities -- just lifting and wearing casually). The waist seam has totally separated, and Ten Thousand says they aren't eligible for the warranty program since I bought them on final sale. I guess final sale means they are trying to get rid of defective pairs. . . These would be my go-to if the company stood behind the product.

Poor Quality

Within 3 months of my purchase of 5 pair of Tactical shorts, the waist seam started unraveling and releasing on 3 of the 5 pair. This will loosen the fit. And when you purchase 10K items on sale, they do not warranty the items.

Failed In 2 Months, Company Wont Replace

Ive worn ten thousand for years, own over 20 of their items, but the new version of this short fails quickly. The seams completely failed after 2 months. The company also will NOT REPLACE them for you. The company will find a way to not own up to the issue because it was on sale etc. so the “quality guarantee” is fake. After years of loyal support i’ll no longer purchase from them.
