Details

Like certain thru-hike trails and Phish songs, some clothes just keep on going. This is one of those, a supremely trusty short for long and meandering journeys. Made of our signature honeycomb ripstop fabric, it’s a light and durable short that you can certainly use for carefully organized day outings. To begin with, there’s the abundance of design details. Roomy bellowed pockets (one zip front, one Velcro flap at the side) for items brought or picked up along the way. Half elastic back waistband with zip fly and snap front, with an interior drawstring. Front coin pocket, two back Velcro flap pockets. Gusseted crotch for added comfort and mobility. You can’t go wrong with this endlessly useful short. Cotton/nylon blend. Classic fit. Machine wash. Imported.

Great shorts.

These shorts are very comfortable. I like the elastic waistband with the drawstring. No belt required. They dry quickly and I can use them for scuba diving.

Good lightweight cargo shorts

My only slight negative is that the elastic portion of the waistband is just a little bit 'too much'- too much of the total length of the waistband and too much stretch. Because of this, the overall waistband can pinch a little.

But everything else about the shorts are great- good lightweight materials, excellent pockets, great overall fit (baggy in the bottoms and thighs, like cargo shorts should be) with good closures for pockets.

Overall, highly recommended!

An excellent pair of shorts. Plenty of pockets, especially a thigh open pocket for my cell phone!

great style

I love the look of these shorts and the subtle honeycomb pattern is intriguing.

I know the cargo pockets should be longer, but that would mean increasing the inseam. I wouldn't want that because it's already long enough. However, what disappoints me is the great amount of loose thread inside both front pockets. If you haven't already, TA, please contact the manufacturer and ask if this can be prevented in the future.

I wonder if a midweight version can be offered.
