{"product_id":"delta-cargo-short-trs","title":"Delta Cargo Short TRS","description":"\u003csection\u003eThe Delta Cargo Short TRS is an expedition-grade, submersible technical field short built for rigorous, protracted adventure. The kind where you are on the move for weeks, not days, and every stitch has to earn its place. Constructed from a 6.13oz, 4-way stretch Technical Ripstop nylon, a high-tenacity Nylon 6 yarn with Spandex woven in a mini-ripstop pattern with quick-dry and DWR finish, the Delta Cargo Short is engineered for all terrains and climates, from jungle treks and packraft crossings to 30-day mountain traverses and everything in between. Featuring 13 total pockets, dedicated EDC Tool Pockets, quad no-twist custom Delta-Rings, a Hide-Away waistband pocket, and a high-mobility horseshoe gusset panel, these are the most capable field shorts we have ever built. Finished with industrial-grade triple needle stitching on all major seams and cut and sewn in California, USA. Available in All Terrain Brown, Ranger Green, Universal Field Gray, and Transitional Field Green.\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYears back, the PDW design team was captivated by a National Geographic account documenting an epic transect of the entire Amazon, a grueling, months-long lateral traverse by scientists and explorers pushing through dense, trackless jungle and nameless waterways. The question that stuck: what shorts would we actually want on a journey like that?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSomething that would stand up to constant wear over many months in soggy, rough, utterly wild environments. Quick-dry. Abrasion resistant. Freedom of movement without the penalty of weight. Organized for the real-world EDC demands of remote, sustained adventure. After trialing numerous technical fabrics, PDW arrived at TRS (Technical Ripstop), a high-tenacity Nylon 6 yarn blended with Spandex, woven in a mini-ripstop pattern that dries fast, takes abuse, and moves with you in all directions without looking or feeling like field gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is the Delta Cargo Short TRS. Thirteen purpose-engineered pockets stash and organize as little or as many EDC items as the mission demands. Low-profile cargo pockets keep access clean without bulk. The dedicated EDC Tool Pockets are the direct evolution of a pocket clip reinforcement system Patrick Ma first developed in the early 2000s. Originally designed as a double layer of fabric to protect the garment from the constant wear and tear that pocket clips on folding knives, flashlights, and multi-tools inflict on lesser shorts, the current design does double duty: it reinforces the garment and functions as a fully dedicated pocket for storing or staging your EDC tool, ready to deploy when you need it. The high-mobility horseshoe gusset panel handles steep terrain and scrambles without restriction. A diamond double seat and industrial-grade triple needle stitching throughout means these shorts will outlast the adventure, not just survive it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost of us will never transect the Amazon. These shorts are ready if you do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFind a Way or Make One\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterials:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnical Ripstop: 6.13oz, 85% Nylon \/ 15% Spandex with C6 DWR Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoly Mesh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYKK NylonCoil Zippers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon Hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePoly Flat Lace\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNylon Hook \u0026amp; Loop\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eT40 Thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSizing:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRegular Fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10\" Inseam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Tenacity Nylon with 4-Way Stretch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick Dry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDWR Finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow Profile Cargo Pockets, with Laser Cut Hook \u0026amp; Loop Flap Closures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated EDC Tool Pockets for Today’s Folding Knives, Multi-Tools, and Flashlights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHide-Away Pocket by Rear Waistband for Spare Cuff Key, Cash, Etc\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHorizontal Hand Pockets Inspired from Work Wear, Which Allow User Access Even While Wearing Pack, 1st Line or Tool Belts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoin Trap or Small Folder Pocket Inside Main Hand Pockets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom No-Twist Delta-Ring Hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom No-Loss Parasmock Type Slotted Buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYKK Nylon Coil Zipper Fly with Locking Slider\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiamond Double Seat Reinforcement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull \"Horseshoe\" Shaped Gusset Panel for Extra Mobility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLoop Swatches on Each Cargo Pocket for Cat Eyes or Hiviz Markers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble, Triple Needle and Bar-Tack Reinforcement Construction Throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned, Crafted, Cut, and Sewn In:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCalifornia, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003csection\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the Delta Cargo Short TRS different from other technical cargo shorts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Delta Cargo Short TRS was purpose-built around a clear question: what would you actually want to wear on months of continuous, high-output expedition in demanding environments? The answer drove every design decision: a 6.13oz Technical Ripstop nylon with 4-way stretch and DWR, thirteen purpose-organized pockets, dedicated EDC Tool Pockets evolved from a Patrick Ma original design, and quad no-twist custom Delta-Rings. The construction standard is the same applied across all PDW California-made apparel: industrial-grade triple needle stitching, proprietary hardware, and reinforcement at every stress point. These shorts are engineered to outlast the adventure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is TRS fabric?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTRS stands for Technical Ripstop. It is a high-tenacity Nylon 6 yarn blended with Spandex, woven in a mini-ripstop pattern. The weave delivers abrasion resistance and structural integrity under sustained hard use. The Spandex provides 4-way stretch without the feel of a stretch fabric. A DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish sheds water and speeds drying without adding weight or stiffness. Combined, these properties make TRS the right fabric for any warm-weather pursuit where durability, mobility, and quick-dry performance all matter at the same time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow many pockets does the Delta Cargo Short TRS have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThirteen total. The pocket architecture is designed for organized EDC access rather than raw pocket count: low-profile cargo pockets, dedicated EDC Tool Pockets with double-layer reinforcement for pocket clip wear, workwear-style slash hand pockets accessible over a pack waist belt or first-line belt, a Hide-Away waistband pocket, and quad no-twist custom Delta-Rings for carabiner and keychain clip points. Everything has a place. Nothing adds unnecessary bulk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre the Delta Cargo Shorts submersible?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The Delta Cargo Short TRS is designed as a submersible field short. TRS fabric with quick-dry and DWR finish, triple needle construction throughout, and hardware selected for durability in wet environments mean these shorts are built for packrafting, river crossings, coastal operations, and any warm-weather pursuit where full immersion is a realistic and expected part of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre the Delta Cargo Shorts made in the USA?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Every pair of Delta Cargo Shorts is cut and sewn in California, USA. PDW applies the same industrial-grade construction standard to the Delta Cargo Short as to all its California-made apparel: triple needle stitching on all major seams, proprietary no-twist Delta-Ring hardware, and custom no-loss parasmock style slotted buttons. When PDW says \"made in USA,\" it means designed, cut, and sewn by hand in California.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is the PDW EDC Tool Pocket?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EDC Tool Pocket is a direct evolution of a pocket clip reinforcement system designer Patrick Ma first developed in the early 2000s. The original insight was simple and accurate: the repetitive wear from a pocket clip on a folding knife, flashlight, or multi-tool will destroy an unprotected pocket over time. Ma's solution was a double layer of fabric in the pocket zone, reinforcing the garment precisely where clip wear concentrates. The current EDC Tool Pocket carries that solution forward and adds a second function: the reinforced zone is now also a fully dedicated pocket, sized and positioned to store or stage the EDC tool itself. The result is a pocket that protects the garment, keeps your tool immediately accessible, and keeps the rest of your pocket real estate clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat activities are the Delta Cargo Shorts designed for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Delta Cargo Short TRS is built for the full spectrum of warm-weather expedition: jungle trekking, packrafting, international adventure travel, multi-week backpacking, coastal operations, and overland use. The horseshoe gusset panel provides full range of motion for steep and technical terrain. DWR and quick-dry fabric handle rain, humidity, and full immersion. The 13-pocket layout keeps your EDC organized and accessible regardless of what you are carrying or how long you have been out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do the Delta Cargo Shorts fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Delta Cargo Short TRS is cut in a regular fit. The horseshoe gusset panel provides unrestricted movement for high-step terrain and active pursuits. Workwear-style slash hand pockets are positioned to remain fully accessible when wearing a pack waist belt or a utility first-line belt, a deliberate functional consideration for load-bearing use.
