Line-level (Carhartt Force ripstop cargo shorts): a buyer reported the photographed brown/beige colorway arrived noticeably more yellow in person ("almost like a brown mustard"), i.e. colour can deviate from the listing images.

This is evidence for Carhartt's canvas work-shorts line only; it does not verify sizing for the terry shorts listed here.

Buyer guides on Chinese marketplaces warn that counterfeit/rep Carhartt-style work shorts often arrive with a strong chemical odor and bleed heavy dye on the first wash (turning wash water black and the fabric grey), unlike genuine garment dye behaviour. This is a general warning about fake Carhartt shorts from other sellers, not a verified finding about this specific listing.
