Reviews
Great Mid length short
"I bought these after a few years using the longer Sierra LT shorts. I like the cut for bouldering and running, less so in a harness where the full lengths are preferred. Fabric is substantially more durable than the LT while not feeling too hot."
— Rob T. (5/5)
Shorts that cover all your needs
"Sure you can go conquer the Half Dome or the Tetons in these shorts. They are so comfortable you can also do all the chores around the house, cut the grass, and go grab lunch in them on the weekends. Clean look, smooth colors, and comfort make these an easy purchase in all the colors. Good shorts are not cheap anymore and these are a little on the higher end side but worth every dime."
— Brian J. (5/5)

Sierra Shorts
