Great shorts with an asterisk
I bought these to replace a few pair of aging Zen shorts from Prana. I really like the comfort and ease of elastic-waisted shorts over traditional button-and-zipper. These are good replacements with a few key differences (if you have the Prana version). The material is not as soft nor cloth-like. I wouldn't go so far as to say 'scratchy', but there is a texture and feel that is a little less comfortable. They are also long. For casual wear, this becomes a subjective decision. If you plan to use these for the gym or yoga the length may feel a little restrictive. The legs are also narrower which adds to this perception. In compensation, they are very stretchy. I got these on sale and am pleased overall. I can't say I like them more than the Prana version but they are great for the price.
No Drawstring
Shorts feel nice and fit well. It's hard to find 10 inch shorts these days. That said there is no drawstring so putting a phone in your pocket will cause that size to sag down. Would have been 5 stars if you could tighten the waist.
Comfortable as a pair of underwear.
Flexible material, with elastic band and moisture wicking material makes a great all around pair of shorts for climbing, hiking or yard work.
Comfort
The size and price of this pair of shorts are quite suitable, and I also like the color very much.
