"Excellent shorts for both work and climbing."
"These are great shorts with good stretch. They feel good climbing and look good just going out too."
"Love the corduroy shorts. The length is just perfect and the deep pockets just sweetened it. Hope they will release different corduroy colors. Cheers BD"
"They feel like they are going to last forever! My new go to for hanging out on cool sunny days to the crag or just around town."
"I wear these shorts for climbing , working out , and they even go well with a button up. Highly recommend."
"These are really comfy shorts but the cut if very form fitting and makes it even harder to layer with underwear that isn’t super thin."
"These now stick out in my closet as the go-to shorts. Very comfortable, full freedom of movement and they seem like they will be very durable!"
"Very comfortable shorts. Wear them all the time for bouldering in J Tree to running errands around town. Perfect comfy minimalist short. I owe three of them now."
"Love the feel of the cords, super soft and nice stretchy waistband. My main complaint is the hips are too tight; I'm no wirey climber. . spend more time on my mtb (not in these shorts though!). 5'10", 165 and the med is a bit tight. I'd be swimming in a large so hoping these will stretch out."
"Excellent shorts for casual hiking and out and about town. The corduroy option adds some versatility for in-town activities too. Good, deep pockets and a good amount of stretch"
