My Shorts for every outing
Swim, Run, Hike, Lounge, Out and About; these shorts do it all. The stretch and softness of the material is high quality. The clean look with button waist (not scrunchy waistband), and hidden drawstrings make these work out around town or get-togethers with friends/fam. Real pockets and a cargo pocket that doesn't look like a cargo pocket, makes the utility feel minimal. And they dry very fast, so a quick dip in the lake or pool is always on the menu.
Zipper pocket ruins the shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The zipper pocket is awful. First, they put it on the left leg. So if you're right-handed (like me), it's harder to use. But the worst part is the pocket sits BEHIND your thigh. If you put anything in there, you'll sit on it. Or worse, it will slap against your leg as you walk. I had to ditch the idea of putting my wallet or keys in that secure pocket because it was so irritating. Poor design, will not buy another pair.
Nearly perfect
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent, comfortable, and packable shorts. I've been wearing them almost constantly since purchase. ONLY downside is the fit. I wear a 36" waist in Levi's and my marmot arch rock pants. The 36" filling sun was tight and the waist inflexible. I returned them and sized up to a 38 and have to make use of the drawstring. Also the color I recently purchased has been out of stock since.
Good all-around active shorts
Good all-around pair of shorts designed for the outdoors. The features that I was looking for were pockets (zipper based) and belt loops. I bought this mainly for backpacking as they are light weight and have those aforementioned features. They are comfortable and fairly stylish. I look forward to further putting them through the ringer.
Do not buy this short
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought these shorts; first, they are not stretchable as advertised. The waistband is a solid piece that does not stretch, making it useless for several outdoor activities. Second, the return is complex and tricky and does not work as advertised online. If your time is expensive, do not wait for this online procurement.
Fantastic Shorts - New Go-To Pair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are fantastic shorts and have quickly become my Go-To pair! They are super comfortable and lightweight. I wear them golfing or just running around town. They look good enough to dress up, or to just wear with a t-shirt. I highly recommend these. I will say they do run a bit small, so order a size up.
Solid
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wear these shorts to work in the restaurant industry. Very few items I order can withstand the ability to not tear in the crotch. So far, so good. I've worn them and washed them for about three weeks and no signs of tearing so far. That's a huge plus but then again it's only been about three weeks.
Just ordered a second pair
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought these for hiking with a backpack. Have done two 10-15 milers so far and these are very comfortable. Waistband stays in place, flexibility of fabric is not restrictive when scrambling over rocks, and they are lightweight and breathable which is nice in the Georgia humidity.
Great Shorts, light weight, comfortable
Great shorts. I am 6'2 and weigh about 230 lbs.. Athletic body type. I originally purchased a size 36 and had to return them for a size 38. Amazing quality and materials, fast drying, and love the pockets. The only "con" is that I would buy 1 size larger than you usually wear.
Fantastic All-purpose Shorts . . . Don't Just Buy One Pair!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well-made shorts that can go from lounge to activewear, hiking, and everything in between. My only recommendation is that the sizing seems to be a bit smaller than previous years, so you may need to go up a size or 2 especially if you're fuller in the legs or butt.
