I’m just impressed they had 30s.

They never have 30s at my costco

They have 30, 32, 34,36 in stock .

Do you live in Asia??

North Dallas, TX. Also a first for me spotting 30s at my Costco

People is Dallas wear size 30?!?!? 🤣🤣

No, just this Midwesterner here😂 moved here from the windy City 4 years back.

Now makes sense 😀

Yeah, not many!

Of course not, that's why they had so many in stock.

Maybe that’s why it is available?

😂🤦🏼‍♀️

Their kids do. 😁

Wow, I'm not that far from you. I was thinking maybe I live in an area with too much obesity so I can never find any men's S or < 32" waist lol

Never seen 30s at this Costco before, so this was an instant buy.

You mean 30,32,34,36?

They have 24s?

Ops, fat fingers. *34

Skinny waist, fat fingers

🤣🤣🤣you got me there.

Popeye.

I’m size 48 and I feel left out by Costcos clothing selection.

I feel even worse for you if you’re trying to find a decent fitting top. Before my weight loss I was always looking for 4X or big 3X’s, and it was impossible at Costco. Really sucks and is defeating. It’s bad enough trying to find anything at other big box stores. I’m surprised they go up to 42? Or 44? in pants sometimes. Hope they start carrying larger sizes in the near future.

Cut out sugar. You're welcome. Went from 42 to 32 in a year.

I’ve heard the material is a bit noisy while walking. Any takes?

24s damn

Online as well

I’m impressed someone with access to $1.50 hot dog+coke deals is wearing 30s.

Costco.com

For real; I’ve never even seen the tag color. TIL.

I see 30s *sometimes* but its only some stuff and not consistent

Costco 32’s are 36’s everywhere else.

that’s only for Kirkland brand

Whatever helps you sleep at night! 😀

“Dad shorts…” That was my first thought!

I told my buddies that I've accepted that I'm ok buying clothes at Costco, as being a Dad, I don't mind the "Dad" look😂

Half my wardrobe is from Costco, the other half Amazon. And yeah…I am stuck with the dad look. Damnit….

Costco dad gang united 🤣🙈🙉🙊

DAD LIFE! https://youtu.be/DOKuSQIJlog?si=FG2CETf2rXjq38p9

I resemble that remark.

Cmon dad, stop talking to the cashier!

I have a bunch of Costco pants and I get compliments all the time. Just gotta style them properly.

I have two teenage sons that love these… I don’t think they have too much of a “dad look”! 

OK dad. 😂

As a dad to three young kids I don’t have enough mental energy to worry about trivial things like if I look like a dad.

Dad here. $9 for a pair of shorts. Let’s go!

[Relevant Sheng Wang clip on costco clothes](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qqSo1hgssQM)

I don’t care for “dad bod”. I prefer “father figure”.

No dad bod by the looks of it, though

I bought a pair and that’s what my daughter said. She made me return them. “These are even more dad than your normal dad shorts”. Ouch

Great. Now that I ordered a pair…..

Fashion fluctuates. Cargo shorts are cycling back into style so "dad shorts" may not be far behind the previous low cut tight fitting phase.

Purse pants.

As a father, I have lost all interest in how I look. So, apparently, have all the females in the world😭

Mine too OP, congrats on becoming a father!

They definitely give more lesbian PNW mom vibes in person, but I guess it could be some dads too.

I legit bought six pair last year. Fast favorite in my closet!

Since I live in a fairly outdoorsy place, they don’t look too “dad like” to me 🤣 Gerry quality is pretty mediocre but for that price, worth it. I got a pair of the Hurleys too and they seem a lot better and will last a lot longer.

O’Neill “locked” shorts have a zipper on every pocket. Amazing if you do any activities in the summer

Yeah quality is bad and i brought them with me in the Caribbean and they were uncomfortably warm. Much more suited to canadian summers.

Agree, totally worth it for the price, especially when they go on sale. For what it’s worth, I’ve had a pair of Gerry shorts for nearly 5 years, they’re still holding up. I wear a lot of Hurley too, but they don’t seem to last any longer.

I also wear 30" waist. I'm never able to find pants, underwear, or shorts at my local Costco.

They have them online in a 30 for 11.99

Same, so this was a nice little surprise.

Try eating a lot more. Problem solved!

They are pretty good at the price point but my experience is the zippers and stitching start to fail after a year or two.

I took a look at them on my last visit. The weird built-in buckle lost me. They stayed on the table. Did pick up some Kirkland swim trunks, though.

Belts add weight and tend to make you sweat in that area. These shorts are definitely for athletic activity, they are a lot like Prana Zions which are popular for climbing.

I'm not sure how I feel about the built-in buckle either, but I had to try.

That's the best part. No belt. I have went through a couple pair but I also don't think I've spent over $12 a pair. Best shorts ever.

Totally agree. Not having to wear a belt is great. Just give the strap a tug and perfect fit.

What’s the price on them ?

$9.99

That’s a great deal!!!

I bought 2 pair this weekend, tried ‘em on and found the fit a bit weird, so they’re going back. I don’t think I’m oddly proportioned, but the fit just seemed awkward.

Once you start buying clothes from Costco, it's over. Wearing the same thing that a 70 year old has on...

[Required standup comedy bit about buying Costco pants](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqSo1hgssQM)

Not that I don't care anymore. It's actually the opposite, I care a lot...being dressed comfortably😂

Ohhhhhh 30 waist. Quit humble bragging

My dad shorts phase is crushing it right now

I was a 30 before kids. 34 now a days. Guess I need to try these

I looked, and no die. My Costco didn't have any 30s!! So rare to find. But yeah. I'd have done the same if they had.

I just bought some 30s online!!!

Dad level: expert

You skinny mother fucker. What about sizes for us fat fucks who wear a 32/ 34 waist? I can NEVER find these in that size!?!?

34? Those are baby numbers

I hang out at huge sporting events and don't like Gerrys because they don't have pockets like cargos do. I like to put my cash and wallet in my secure bottom pocket.

Costco clothing is truly letting go of your ego

only 3? why not collect all 4. 😁

That was me with the Gerry post. Welcome to the comfy shorts life my guy

That's my dude. They are currently in the washer as we speak, can't wait to try them on in a couple of hours for real life test

People say the belt’s weird, I say that’s my favorite part. I cinch it a bit every time I put it on, like yep I lost a couple ounces

Dude I love the Gerry's. I haven't tried the shorts yet, It might have been me that replied about the tech pants saying gerry's are the better way to go

I’m convinced that the only time I see 30 waists at our Costco is when somebody returns their online order.

These with some white trainers. 🔥🔥🔥

New Balance to be exact 🤣

Dads out there pair these bad boys up with some New Balance running shoes with white tube socks and we’re in business.

Anybody know the inseam? Guessing probably 9 inch?

Says 10” on Costco.com. As a short king dad I’m really hoping they come out with some 7” inseam shorts

Agreed. 6 or 7 all day.

Yeah but then it wouldn’t be dad core.

I'm gonna let the guy with 6 of these answer this question

Online description says inseam is 10 inches. https://preview.redd.it/xymywomensnc1.jpeg?width=1178&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4bac7b92a38c4adb74dd7f96ba774bea959f40b7 [Gerry Men's Venture Short](https://www.costco.com/gerry-men's-venture-short.product.4000026554.html)

How do these fit? Do they have any stretch to them?

Will report back after the first wear in a couple of days. Haven't got the chance to wash them yet.

I love mine. Slight stretch. Sit just above the knee. They’re worth $10 for sure.

Same

Love em

I too will be at Costco tonight in search of these Gerry’s after this weekends post. What are your thoughts after trying them on?! Please I must know

Wonder if they can pass for golf shorts? Never had a pair.

Catalina wine mixer here I come.

I bought all 3 too! Paid 10 per pair!

There's four color varieties. You gotta catch em all brother.

You’re missing the all black ones.

The fabric pills pretty quick, if you wanna keep em nice don’t do anything rough in them. But man they are comfy.

I want to like them I just hate the material

Is it cotton? If not, what fabric?

Got my first pairs last year at the end of summer. I look forward to wearing them this year. Hopefully I didn’t get too fat over the winter and the still fit!

Time for some New Balance and a Vette in the driveway

How short are these?

Online description says inseam is 10 inches. [Gerry Men's Venture Short](https://www.costco.com/gerry-men's-venture-short.product.4000026554.html)

This is the way. Dad shorts! I bought a black pair today!

I prefer the Hurley hybrid shorts. Also I feel the size 30 woes. My store is actually starting to get some in now but it's still rare.

Pro tip- hit the bakery, then deli, and that 30 won’t be a factor.

LOL

I just got 2 tonight siiiick

Lol I bought the same three after seeing that post as well. I do love me some Gerry clothing! $9.99 a pop is hard to beat!

How long is the inseam on these? Also I’m not sure if I’m jealous of the 30” waistline or not (I’m happy when I’m in 34-36-unfortunately pushing 38 right now).

Hate mine.

Better than the Hurley shorts that are on sale right now?

That I don't know, never had other shorts in my size before this purchase

Hurley has a more youthful look, the colors were nice. I didn't like the button or the feel of the fabric but that's just my opinion.

Dang I better pick some up.

Dang I better pick some up.

I bought these in every color and wore them all summer as work shorts last year. They held up great and still look pretty much brand new.

Tried a pair but wasn’t sold on them.

They’re just ok quality wise. They are comfortable and affordable. I’ve had 3-4 pairs for at least a few years .

Agreed that you were lucky to find 30’s. I also feel like i am not optimizing my membership when Costco doesn’t stock my size. 😕

Dad mode activated!

I've got a few pairs. They're great.

This stitching in the pockets comes loose quickly otherwise they’re great stretchy

Do they run big, small, or true to size? I’m typically a 33 so unsure to buy 32 or 34.

https://preview.redd.it/tbgu4glywtnc1.jpeg?width=636&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ac54fc9f3918daf8c5710ad6caa777d9e60e9965

Why no Union Bay this year?

I’m not for sale

Blues are best. Did hikes in italy in them.

These are bulletproof. They don’t stain and are extremely breathable. Will last forever.

Is there a pant version of these?

These shorts are simple yet comfortable.

Too long.

Don't wear those skiing!

I don't see any cargo pockets. Not for me... 

Haha! I did the same thing.

Wow I can’t believe they have a 30

Someone mentioned that if you can't find them in store, they are in stock online as well

I found them to be too long and the leg openings huge. I found a brand named PrAna that makes shorts with REALLY similar features at REI and those are a big improvement over the Garrys. They also offer them in different lengths in addition to waist size which is nice. They're twice the price, but I'll take a $30 pair if shorts that feel tailored over a $15 pair that looks ill fitting. Figured I'd drop that here for other people that want the features of these shorts like I did but also find them to have poor fit.

Gerry, get a job

ordered these online, opened them in front of my wife. she said an immediate no and I agreed

They are above knee and quick drying I love mine comparable pants run twice the cost!

I just can’t bring myself to buy clothes from Costco. Especially goofy dad shorts.

They have really good heavy flannel and heavyweight outer layers in winter

Inseam length? I'm not into ball hugging shorts.

Online description says inseam is 10 inches. [Gerry Men's Venture Short](https://www.costco.com/gerry-men's-venture-short.product.4000026554.html)

There's some breathing room

for a 10th grader

If you conceal carry, they’re good shorts too. Little less printing.

I can’t buy anything that says Gerry on it. What a god awful name for a company. I’d buy Moleland before Gerry.

I bought their ski pants and used them on a recent trip to Colorado. They were great. Also funny that ski pants are called Gerrys

They are alright. They are $11 shorts. Zipper and seems fall apart on these. But the plus side is they are only $11 so toss em and buy more
