AndYES- they have a Zipper Fly. Read on.
The Carrier Shorts Mk.II retain the strengths of our first-gen Carrier Shorts while adding highly-anticipated new features inspired by community feedback.

ENHANCED FEATURES:
Functional zipper fly
Dual zippered rear pockets with YKK zippers
Dual internal magazine pouches for tactical reloads
NOTE: A removable Retention Belt is required for concealed carry. Carrier Shorts Mk.II are compatible with all Arrowhead retention belts (selectable above) and almost all 1.5” belts from other manufacturers (Hunter Constantine, Kore. Groove, Etc.)
MODEL INFORMATION:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Like most brilliant solutions, it's actually quite simple...the enclosed semi stretchy gun beklt is run through internal loops, and provides enough rigidity to hold a firearm. To keep hardware slim, Arrowhead uses an ingenious magnetic locking buckle" - CLAY MARTIN, GUNS AMERICA
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "For those of you who live an active lifestyle, the good news is that you no longer have to compromise your safety because you can’t take your gun on a jog or because you have to employ off-body carry at the gym...Arrowhead Tactical Apparel is ensuring you’re comfortably prepared at all times" - EUGENE NIELSEN, US CONCEALED CARRY
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "For an athletic apparel company that has chosen to tackle the problem of effectively concealing a defensive tool, Arrowhead Tactical Apparel has brought a solution that erodes one more excuse of not going to the gym" - FORREST COOPER, RECOIL MAGAZINE
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "The real question remains: How does it work? Impressively well. When carrying a handgun, the Carrier Retention system is plenty beefy enough to secure your firearm against your body without any flopping around...As a fitness garment...it is impressive in every way. I lifted weights, including squat and deadlift, in it, and it provides ideal range of motion" - ERIC CONN, NRA SHOOTING ILLUSTRATED
Holster Compatibility and Support
All “Carrier” apparel offers sufficient support for all handguns up to 5 lb / 2.3 kg in IWB holsters when a removable 1.5” retention belt is installed and set up properly. See our set-up guides here.
Yes, we’ve tested a Desert Eagle. It passed the jumping test without sag or bounce.
The OmniCarry belt offers more support than the Rapid Clasp belt. We recommend OmniCarry if you have an oversized carry gun.
Absolutely love these shorts! I was skeptical at first, wondering why I was wasting my money on them until they arrived and tried them on! I immediately went online and bought more. They are comfortable, carrying in them is great, and they are good quality! You won’t be disappointed!
Store owner replied:
Thanks so much for the feedback, Kirk. We appreciate your taking a chance on us, and I'm so glad to hear it worked out.
They are literally the most comfortable shorts I’ve ever worn, didn’t know it was possible to carry with this much comfort and peace of mind knowing it’s not going anywhere no matter what activity you’re doing. Excellent job Arrowhead Tactical! Their customer support is some of the best in the game too.
Store owner replied:
Couldn't ask for higher praise than this! We're honored to equip you.
Super comfortable super sturdy zero give I carry iwb (appendix) with a side cart and a spare mag holder fully loaded Glock 19 gen 6 with a light ( that’s a damn near full size loaded pistol with 2 spare mags)and the shorts are super solid nothing ever moves I love this brand and will for sure be buying more in the future
Store owner replied:
Hey Justin, thanks for the feedback! We're glad you're loving the shorts, and there are certainly plenty of opportunities to get more. We've just added two new colors to those shorts, too!
Amazing conceal carry shorts that support your load! Super comfy and turns whats usually a chore, into a dream.
Very comfortable. Usually when I come back home I put away the gun. With these shorts I don't feel the gun. I keep doing everything with it even inhouse
Store owner replied:
This is awesome! Thank you for sharing this. I'm glad the Carrier Shorts are working so well for you.
I love these shorts! I’m a personal trainer living in south Texas so I wear gym shorts pretty much 99% of the time and these have been great. They allow me to carry comfortably in gym clothes and they are also great to train in. 10/10 recommend!
Store owner replied:
Thank you for the review, Marco! I'm glad the Carrier Shorts are working exactly as designed for you.
Great comfortable fit. I love the material, it feels very strong and secure. Solid waistband. Im able to comfortably conceal a full size handgun all day
This is honestly probably the very first review I’ve ever done for a product. I was very skeptical because it was some small company with very expensive products. But I caved in and decided to try it. Hear me when I say these are the best shorts I’ve ever worn. I definitely ordered another pair along with a pair of joggers. These are almost the only shorts I ever wear anymore.
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
Overall, okay. Nothing to write home about. Fit is accurate. Belt loops seem gimmicky. Shipping was ridic - almost 2 full weeks for 1 pair. No communication from seller. I had to email twice just to get the same generic update. May be one and done for me. We’ll see if this review actually makes the site.
Store owner replied:
Hey Adam, thanks for your honest feedback. Good, bad, or mid, we review all of it and take our customer's thoughts very seriously. I'm sorry to hear that your shipping times were so far above average. Rest assured that "two weeks" is not customary. Your order suffered from a system error that allocated it to the wrong warehouse, and it took several days for us to discover that and correct it in our system. After that, it shipped promptly. Please accept our apologies for this oversight.
Super soft material. Way better than i anticipated and loved the mag pouches in the back pockets.
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
The product is great but their shipping is terrible was at least 3 plus weeks to almost 4 weeks from order to getting it. Company made excuses on earlier orders when I inquired.. Again, product is top shelf
After use and putting it through the laundry, it has a very pungent, almost stale dusty smell. That's very reminiscent of someone who's been outside for a long time in humid weather if that makes any sense. I work from home so I rarely ever use this outside. No other clothes has this issue and I don't know why. I think it has to deal with something with the material used. The pants are very comfortable though, but it's very hard to wear with this smell. No matter how many times I put it through the wash. It always ends up smelling like it after a few days. Oddly enough, I don't have this issue with the joggers version of this pants. Maybe there's a difference in the material and I bought two of these and both had the same issue.
Store owner replied:
Nahum, this sounds like a problem unique to how the shorts are being laundered, especially given that it has occurred on both of your pairs which you presumably wash and dry in the same machines. We've sold tens of thousands of these shorts in this exact material, and this is the first time we've received this feedback. Please make sure you're following the care instructions from the sewn tag very specifically, and beyond that, it may be an unusual disagreement between your shorts and your laundry machines / soap / etc. In any case, we make shorts in lots of materials, so other options may work better with your care setup.
The product is great but the shipping experience I went through was rough to say the least
So this is amazing! I’ve tried all the belts Tenicor, Mastermind, Core, Buffalo and others.
For me, nothing is better than Aegitec Defense Hybrid and these shorts. Years, years, I’ve spent being uncomfortable, no more!
I’m very picky when it comes to shorts. I will say I had my doubts, but these are the best shorts I have ever owned. As long as they keep making the 11 inch inseam shorts they will have a customer for life. They’re the perfect length. Comfort of gym shorts with the look of board shorts with a fly. Not to mention they hold a full size gun in an appendix rig with a spare mag side car rock solid.
