What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"These shorts are my go-to for fast-paced adventures. The hybrid construction gives me durability in high-wear areas and stretch where I need it most. The DWR treatment keeps light moisture at bay, and they dry super fast if I take an unexpected dip. The elastic waistband stays comfortable all day, and the zip pocket keeps my key secure. Perfect for everything from trail runs to paddle days."
