Varusteleka L4 Field Shorts (Gen 2)

Durable cargo shorts for military use with a functional cut, sturdy details, and NIR-compatible color schemes. Finally also available in MultiCam! If you want to buy just one pair of tactical shorts and you want them to be made in Europe, here’s a great alternative.

Features

As the name might indicate, these are heavily influenced by our popular Field Pant; our improved version of the pants used by the Finnish Army. The tough ripstop fabric, strong seams, and action-friendly cut ensure you can use these in all warm-weather military activities.

The shorts come with a high-quality Kroko-zippered fly. Furthermore, there is a Canadian-style slotted button at the top, which is not fastened with a few flimsy stitches but a tougher fabric band. They also feature a diamond gusset crotch that enables you to perform more ninjaesque moves without ripping your bum.

Six pockets

Thanks to numerous pockets, you won’t easly run out of cargo space. These shorts have two spacious front pockets that feature extra pockets for keys, the cell phone, etc. Moreover, they have large cargo pockets with a velcro & button closure. The buttons are covered to prevent them from grabbing onto things in fast-paced action.

Secure waist adjustment

If you like to haul heavy stuff on your belt or pockets or prefer shorts that won’t hang halfway down your butt, these are a solid choice. The 40 mm (1.6") wide elastic adjustment will ensure a more snug fit than a thin rubber band. It is easily detachable for washing or replacing. Washing is the main enemy of elastic bands, so easy removal prolongs the service life a lot.

Furthermore, the shorts feature belt loops for a max. 45 mm (1.75") belt, so you can use either adjustment option or both if you want to carry more stuff without shorts sagging.

L4 – Field Wear

The fourth layer of our clothing system could be regarded as "standard camouflage dress". L4 clothing offers protection against the outside world through camouflage and abrasion resistance. These garments are designed for minimal thermal load for effective layering. Camouflage prints and visible accessories are 100% NIR compliant.

Made in Europe

These are made in the EU in Poland. They are manufactured by Unifeq, a company that makes high-quality clothing and gear for numerous European military forces and law enforcement agencies. European production is more expensive than Asian one, but it has many benefits, such as the security of supply, faster deliveries, lower transportation emissions, and more transparent and ethical production.
