"Runs very small. Odd fit. Gabe them away bcs they were a sales item with no refund"
"No chafing. Really like these ultralight, quick dry shorts."
"Very comfortable"
"Super light, dries fast; not very durable for butt sliding but good as runners"
"Love the shorts. Black Diamond sells some quality clothing. BUT. . . I bought multiple sizes as we were shortly leaving on a trip. Returned the ones that didn't fit. It took them a month to return my money, almost $300. And customer service just kept putting me off. Reason given was we're just backlogged/overwhelmed at the moment. They've lost me as a customer. Really too bad. Buyer beware"
"Loved these! I guess everyone does—as my puppy grabbed them right after I tried them on an Indian Peaks Wilderness trial for the first time in Colorado where we live :) Shorts proved to be extremely light weighted, breathable, and good on the skin. I wish I still had it haha."
"Super lightweight and comfortable."
"These are probably the most comfortable shorts I own. They are incredibly light. I use them weekly for running in the mountains and backpacking. Couldn’t recommend more. I love that they don’t have a liner on the inside which is something that is hard for me to find. I ordered a size small and they fit perfectly."
"I love how lightweight these shorts are - they have been amazing for moving in the alpine and are very quick drying. Super comfortable. I did get a small, which is normally my size, but the elastic band is a bit large for me. I just fold them over and they are fine, but next time I order some I would probably get the XS instead. I'm 5'7" and 130 lbs."
"I'm 5'9 160 pounds the medium fits perfectly!"
