Two-tone camo uses two contrasting colors in the camouflage pattern rather than the three or four color combinations used in standard woodland or ACU digital camo. The result is a bolder, higher-contrast pattern that stands out more than standard military camo. Two-tone camo BDU shorts are popular for airsoft, casual tactical wear, and for buyers who want a distinctive camo aesthetic that differs from standard military patterns.

Yes. Rothco BDU shorts use the same six-pocket layout as standard BDU pants: two large button-down cargo pockets on the thighs, two front slash pockets, and two button-down back pockets. The adjustable waist tabs and drawstring ankle ties are replaced with a standard shorts waistband configuration. The construction standards reinforced seat and bar-tacked stress points match the full-length BDU pants.

Rothco BDU shorts use a cotton/polyester blend fabric in a ripstop weave, the same construction as standard BDU pants. The ripstop weave prevents tears from spreading, which is especially important for shorts during active outdoor use. The cotton/poly blend provides breathability from the cotton content and shape retention and color fastness from the polyester content.

Rothco BDU shorts are sized by waist measurement in inches. Measure your natural waist where you normally wear your pants and match it to the size chart on the product page. If you are between sizes, the adjustable waist tab on BDU shorts allows you to take in a slightly larger size for a precise fit. See our BDU pants buying guide for detailed sizing advice.
