Comments about prAna Stretch Zion Shorts - Men's:
I have the previous version of these 'shorts', and they are the best most comfortable shorts I have EVER owned. So much so that I decided to order 2 more pair at [$] a pop. What a disappointment to get capris that go down well past my knees. I use my current shorts for every use you can think of, but I will be returning the capris. SO sad... (I am 6' tall, maybe if you are 6'10" these would be okay)

Comments about prAna Stretch Zion Shorts - Men's:
These are my favorite all-around shorts. I own them in Charcoal. I've used them for hiking, gym climbing, around town, and even swimming when I didn't have board shorts. They are very durable, dry quickly, and the stretch in the fabric provides a nice range of movement.
I like the slightly longer fit. They are a bit tapered toward the bottom so you don't get that annoying bell shape found with many other shorts.
With most clothing items I fall between a medium and small. I have between a 30-31 inch waist, and with these shorts the small fits me perfectly. Someone with a waist smaller than 29 inches could find these a bit too loose at the waist, even with the cinch belt.

Comments about prAna Stretch Zion Shorts - Men's:
I am 5'10.5", pants size 31x32. I got these in Small. Perfect fit, does not feel bulky (Medium, which is what I would regularly get, had I not tried these in store for size, was too big), just about covers the knees standing, but is above knees when sitting or lifting legs. They look a bit tapered to the bottom, so they're much "smarter" looking than lose fitting straight board shorts.
Notice how the pictures of two colors REI used are of different shorts. Charcoal ones have two cargo pockets and extra stitching on the bottom. I got charcoal, but they look exactly like the pictured khaki ones (one cargo pocket, etc.)

Comments about prAna Stretch Zion Shorts - Men's:
These are hands-down my favorite shorts. After buying my first pair, it wasn't long until I had another... and then another (in other colors of course).
They fit true-to-size in the waist and sit below the knee. I originally bought them solely for climbing, but now I wear them all the time. They're not too long (like some climbing shorts) and not too short. Perfection.

Comments about prAna Stretch Zion Shorts - Men's:
Very comfy, easily adjustable waist, sit well even under a backpack's waist belt all day. Not that I'd wear them for soccer, but the touch of stretch means you have easy movement for hiking etc. Fast drying, good looking. Lightweight but appear to be quite durable. All the little details like pocket positioning, vents, reinforced stitching, soft lining at waist = excellent. Only downside was a couple of loose stitch ends I snipped off when I bought them, but nothing unraveled or otherwise appears amiss. Impressive product, very pleased with these shorts and so went back bought the pants too.

Great-looking shorts. I have two pairs, and love the long length. Only problem is that the belt slips through the buckle and needs to be re-tightened very frequently.
