Holster Compatibility and Support
“Carrier” pants and shorts support all handguns up to 5 lb / 2.3 kg in IWB holsters when set up properly. See our set-up guides here.
Yes, we’ve tested a Desert Eagle. Still no sag.
Use the IWB holsters you already have! The Carrier Waistband works with nearly all IWB holsters for maximum compatibility.
NOTE: A removable Retention Belt is required for concealed carry. Carrier Shorts Mk.II are compatible with all Arrowhead belts, selectable above with bundle pricing. Our OmniCarry belt offers the best support and most compatibility, recommended for larger carry guns or two-clip holsters. Also compatible with almost all 1.5” belts from other brands (Hunter Constantine, Kore Essentials, Nexbelt, Groove, etc.)
Measure your waist where you normally wear your pants, without a holster. Our flexible waistbands will stretch to accommodate your carry setup, so don't size up for your gun.
For a loose fit, consider ordering up a size.
Inseam varies slightly by size to stay proportional to the waist and rise.

10 out of 10, quality product, not some cheap Chinese garbage.
They are great, perfect support for your firearm just like a normal duty belt and jeans, except much comfier. I carry a G17 with a sidecar mag carrier so they do a damn good job holding the weight up.
Extremely comfortable!! I've order several pairs of shorts and wear them every day. I wear them at work and I drive a semi for a living and they do not restrict movement when climbing in an out of the semi or the trailer.
One thing I wish they would offer is possibly a cargo short version with a slightly deeper pockets?
But would definitely would recommend them to family an friends!
My fiancé has his CCW and owns several pairs of these shorts in pretty much every color. They’ve become his go-to because they’re comfortable, durable, and don’t scream “tactical shorts.” They can easily be dressed up for a nicer, more put-together look or worn casually.
One of his favorite features is the belt. He really appreciates that it can be removed and switched over to whichever pair he’s wearing that day rather than needing a separate belt for every pair.
They’ve held up extremely well, fit comfortably, and give him the functionality he needs while still looking like normal, nice shorts. He’s clearly a fan considering we somehow now own the entire color collection. 😂 Highly recommend!
I love these pants. PSA they seem to run one size small for me at least, usually 2X had to exchange and order 3X. Received the new order in and they fit great and hold carry in place and no flopping.
Great product. Had been trying to find good shorts for carrying and these definitely deliver. Material is very premium and the system works exactly as advertised.
These shorts are truly amazing. I was skeptical at first and wasn’t really willing to pay the price tag at first, but now I wish all my shorts were these. They don’t move around while carrying a full sized pistol. The quick disconnect belt is 👌🏼 and the zipper is very convenient. Would buy again.
These shorts fit comfortably and are breathable as well as sturdy for concealed carrying! Highly recommend getting them if you're a shorts kind of guy like I am
They are amazing and comfortable i wear them in the house to relax and going out. Nothing but good things about those shorts and I even have the hybrid pants those are amazing
