        Comments about REI Venturi Shorts - Women's:

        These are very lightweight, breathable, and dry quickly. I found on a hike up some large sand dunes that they really move with you without bunching and are comfortable. They are durable, are made well and look great too. I wish they came in other colors.

        Comments about REI Venturi Shorts - Women's:

        I just bought these shorts to go on a back packing trip thru Arches NP, the Grand Canyon, Havasu Falls and Lake Powell. The trip was EPIC and so were my shorts. I normally wear a 4 and the 2 fit perfect. Most outdoor hiking shorts have a smaller waist and bigger hips and I'm opposite, so was super happy that the waist wasn't cutting into me and the hips didn't make me look wide. I wore them for 2-10 mile in and out hikes with a full pack and they stayed where they were supposed to with no chaffing. They dried almost immedietely and even after all that time in dusty, dirty red rock canyons, they looked perfectly clean. Def recommend for everyone!! Enjoy!

          I still felt fresh and comfortable after wearing them for many hours at over temps around 100 degrees. My last week long trip, I alternated the grey and black shorts and another pair of breathable REI long pants. I was very pleased with the wearability!

            I'm 5'10" with an athletic frame. These shorts fit great, flatter my build, and don't chafe at the thighs (thanks to the relocated inner seam and super soft material at the inner gusset)

              Comments about REI Venturi Shorts - Women's:

              I now have three pairs of these shorts because they are so comfortable! I teach Physical Education during the week and participate in dog agility in the evenings and weekends. They are lightweight, breathable, have good pockets and look good. They also have an adjustable waistband for those of you with smaller waists than hips. I wore these shorts in the rain at a dog agility competition and they were the only thing that felt dry at the end of the day. I highly recommend these to anyone.

                I'm not usually a big fan of REI shorts or pants as they don't quite fit me right, but these shorts are awesome. I am 5'8", about 130 lbs and fit. I think the length is good, but a friend of mine has them who is shorter and she thinks they are a bit long. I love the pockets. I wish I could get them in other colors. There is a similar pair in khaki, but there are two zippers and no side pockets - and they just aren't quite as flattering.

                  Comments about REI Venturi Shorts - Women's:

                  I am always looking for durable, flattering, every-day attire and found these one day. I am athletically built and found it difficult to find shorts that were made for a curvy, toned, girl like myself. These are amazing. Perfect rise (about 1" below my belly button) comfortable hips, length.
                  The material is awesome, spilled water on myself while driving and it just rolled right off. I want them in more colors and am a fan for life!

                  I love the way the zipper in the front does not pucker or puff out. I don't need any extra pouf across my stomach! The length is perfect. These are very slimming. I'm going to buy the other colors before everyone reads this review, or REI is going to run out!
