"Switched to these shorts on the Appalachian Trail after a pair of the Distance shirts ripped at the crotch. Hiked in them every day and they held up no problem, survived the northern half of the trail with lots of butt sliding on rocks and twigs/brambles/etc. grabbing at them for 1,000+ miles. Very solid shorts, love ‘em to death. Only complaint is the zipper pull for the back waist pocket has fallen off, but I don’t often use that pocket anyways, zipper still works."
"Great lightweight shorts. My waist is 28. 5-29" and the size xs fits me perfectly. I've ran and swam in them so far. I do recommend wearing underwear with them if you swim because their is a bit of transparency when they are soaked."
"Super light, dry fast and style…what do you want more?"
"Great pair of quick drying light weight shorts. I used these to trek to the Lost City in Columbia. Everything is wet all the time during the rainy season. They dry quickly (as quick as things can dry in that weather), are super light and comfortable. The only small complaint I have is the lack of a reasonable size pocket to put a phone it (but I knew that when I purchased them). I have done trail runs in them and used them as swim shorts. I would buy them again. Size medium, I am a 32 waist any they fit great."
"Light weight, drys incredibly fast, perfect for on the go and multiple uses. Easy to hand wash and hang dry. Only shorts I need."
"These shorts are lightweight, the perfect length, and perfect for any run."
"Comfortable, good cut and length for hiking, running or just around camp - quick drying and easy care. Also amber colour a bit funky :)"
"Fits TTS, not too long and not too short. Durable nylon and quality construction."
"Super comfy!"
