5 Barry in Idaho
I 've worn Prana Stretch Zion shorts for several years and have yet to find better all- around shorts. They 're very comfortable, light, and durable, and most importantly for me, come in a 12 '' length. I 'm 6' 4 '', so my only suggestion for improvement would be to add a 14 '' option. The pockets are good- sized; the zippered thigh pocket is great for keeping keys in during water activities. The Charcoal color looks great with nearly any shirt.

5 J.S
Great shorts, water resistant and stretchy. I have thick thighs and these fit nice and relaxed. The side pocket is not big enough to zip closed with an iPhone 11 sized phone.

5 Terry
These are my very favorite shorts. They have all the right pockets, some open and some secure. They stretch so there is nice give when I bend or sit. And, they do n't need a belt. I keep looking for new colors!

5 JDG - Palm Springs, CA
I bought two pair( khaki and gray) in 2013 and wore them almost daily for three years... hiking, rock climbing, road trips, and every- day activities. When they FINALLY started showing wear( seriously, they wear like iron!), I ordered four more( gray, black, khaki and olive). When I recently ripped one pair — my fault, not the shorts — there was no question, I just immediately bought a replacement. And when I saw that camo was now an option, I ordered that, too. So yeah... I now own six pairs of these amazing shorts. They ’ re that good. I ’ ve gotten rid of all other shorts in my wardrobe... because from going out in the evening to biking to mowing the lawn, the Zion shorts move with me perfectly... and the side pocket has held my iPhone( 5, 8, and 11) perfectly. I love these shorts. You will too.

5 HG
I wear these shorts every day. They are so comfortable and stylish.

Loooooooove these shorts. They are like a more formal version of the patagonia baggies but equally comfortable( if not more). Daily wear, wish there were way more colors in the 5 '' length. Skies out thighs out yenno. Prana lmk when you drop more colors and I 'll buy em all.

This is my second pair of these shorts..... The shorter length is definitely a better look that the longer shorts out there.... I never liked that look, too dorky!! Anywho.... great fit, comfort and style and then there is the Prana stretch

5 msp1
I 've owned many pairs of the original Stretch Zion shorts and now have moved to the new version. The new Stretch Zion II is has a few changes, but in my opinion, they are still a great pair of shorts. The minor changes like the plastic button and the new fabric still work fine and did n't bother me. Going to the plastic button from the metal one only took a few times of wearing them to get easier to button. The new fabric is still super soft and comfortable but has a sort of shine to it when the light hits them just right. Not a big deal for me. The things that make these my favorite shorts are the comfortable fabric, the adjustable waist band, the color options, and the different pockets. They are also very versatile, I can wear them for activities like hiking and also to a nice restaurant. I own multiple pairs because I wear them all summer.

5 DeanD
I love these shorts and remain super impressed with prAna ’s quality and design. It is my Go To for travel and hiking clothes. My choice used to be Patagonia, but it has turned into more of a fashion company and the quality has nosedived and prices skyrocketed in recent years.

5 J
Good fit, very comfortable for all activities. Nice looking enough to wear out to dinner but also durable enough for hiking. Love the built in belt.

Near perfect short that ’s easily pulled on and off fits right looks good

5 MonicaV
Before receiving these I never heard of the VRST brand so I am glad to know they have clothing for people who are active outside. First thing about these shorts is the fabric, they are made from nylon/elastin. This combo gives you a very soft stretch short that feels great on the skin and moving around will be a breeze due to the stretch it provides. Second the fabric has moisture wicking technology to prevent being sweaty and sticky as you move around. The next big plus is the 50 UPF which stands for ultraviolet protection factor meaning any area the clothing is covering will be guarded from the rays outside. Overall if you or someone you live with is active and loves being outside this brand is essential in your wardrobe.

5 TaylorB
These are so nice!! They ’ re so nice and breathable and the fabric is so soft and comfy. They are stretchy and look great as well. My husband is so excited to golf in these!

These shorts checked all of my boxes, even the strange ones. ✓ Wide, comfy waistband ✓ Length short enough to allow for movement; long enough to provide coverage when sitting ✓ Comfortable& secure while engaging in ALL THE THINGS ✓ Inner brief great for kiddos who run out of, lose, forget, or simply do n't want to bother with wearing undies ✓ Shorts& brief are lightweight& super quick to dry out. A spontaneous pivot to the lake on a hot day will not require a costume change. ✓ Lots of color& pattern choices( super helpful when dressing for Lip synch battles or Casino Night) ✓ Holds up to two weeks of consistent abuse& no access to laundering ✓ Price point helpful for parents of kids who tend to forget about and/or misplace their belongings on the regs. Sale prices helped with this as well.

[ Very, very comfortable. Soft and stretchy. They look and feel high quality. Cute and appropriate for work. I ’ m 5 ’ 10 ” 155lbs, usually a size 8 or size 29/30. I bought a 29 and feel like they ’ re almost too big( which is rare for me). If you ’ re in between sizes I recommend sizing down. Overall worth the price!

5 Mike M.
[ These are stylish, stretchy and comfy shorts with a very modest length- they can be worn to the beach or out to a casual dinner. The waist fit is mostly TTS with some room unlike usual jean shorts- I ’ m usually a 27- 28 and got a 27 and have some room, but they aren ’ t about to fall down or anything. I also liked the off- white ones but decided I didn ’ t need two pairs of the same thing. Might regret later. Don ’ t miss out on these buttery Jean shorts!!

I grabbed a pair of these biker shorts from Dick ’s Sporting Goods on a whim and honestly — I ’ m so glad I did. They ’ re super comfortable, flattering, and stay in place whether I ’ m walking, working out, or just running errands. The fabric is soft but has just the right amount of compression without feeling too tight. I also love that they ’ re not see- through( a huge win 🙌), and the high waist gives great support. These have definitely become a staple in my rotation.

These new longer skirts are great when you need a little extra coverage. They don ’ t look sloppy or frumpy. They flare just a bit so I would size down if in doubt. The blue dusk is pretty. I got the gray also but to me the color is off. It has a light green or aqua tint to it? I ’ m sure I ’ ll grab the black though.

Excellent fit and cut. Maybe run a little tight in the waist and hips, slim through the leg. The new AP Active fabric is amazing. Its super soft, breathable, has great stretch. I am giving 4* because the front hip pockets are awkwardly short. I have a normal sized mobile phone and it wo n't fit in those pockets( or the rear pockets) vertically. Also, I wonder about the durability of the fabric long term. That being said, I am going to get another pair. I 'd buy even more if these were a tad heavier and with 5 pocket styling.

Highly recommend these shorts. Nice pockets and very comfortable.

The Free Fly Men ’s Lined Active Breeze 7 ” Shorts are incredibly lightweight, breathable, and comfortable. The built- in liner provides great support without irritation, and the fabric dries quickly even during intense workouts. The 7 ” length is just right — athletic without being too short. These have quickly become go- to shorts for training, running, and everyday wear. Excellent quality and thoughtful design from Free Fly.

5 Jennifer
I absolutely love these shorts! Perfect fit, even on a long run they do not ride up. Unfortunately, I put mine in the dryer and they haven ’ t been exactly the same since. I would love to order another pair and the surf blue, but you no longer have my size in stock. Would love it if you would bring these back in a size small!!

The fit and cut is perfect( definitely true to size). It has the perfect amount of stretch. Was worried it would give off golf short vibes, but they do not. I could sleep in these they ’ re so incredible!!

[ These shorts are so cute! They have the athletic feel to them but can also be dressed up( I had someone ask me if they were “ work shorts ” haha) super comfortable& recommend!

5 CaliC
[ The PerfectStretch shorts are the most versatile shorts I own. I can wear them on the golf course, to church, or just hanging out. They are incredibly comfortable and they allow me to move freely. The 6 inch length is just right. I live in a hot and humid climate and these shorts are my go to because of how light and breathable they are.

5 KL503
[ These shorts are really well made. The fabric is really thick and feels like the shorts will be very durable. The fit is a little snug but everything is made from stretch material so they ’ re still really comfortable. The length is perfect for an above the knee look, but not so short that they make me uncomfortable. I love that these can look casual with an untucked t- shirt, but you can also dress them up too. They have belt loops and waist closures like a pair of slacks. Also the plastic key chain look on the waistband is a nice touch too. I ’ d definitely recommend these as a versatile pair of shorts that can go with everything.

5 DJWhizzle
[ These shorts are beyond comfortable! The length stops just above the knee, and the fit is neither too tight nor too loose. They run true to size, and the material is the classic Dri- FIT fabric that wicks away moisture. While they ’ re perfect for golf, tennis, or any other sport where you want a slightly dressier look, they ’ re also great for casual outings during the warmer months.

These shorts are incredible. They fit perfectly, have a great drawstring, are moisture wicking( I work out, swim, run and hike in them) are subtle enough to wear with anything, but still have the signature cotopaxi color pop with the llama logo and are the perfect length. Could not recommend them more. I 've already bought three pairs, and I 'm buying three more since I 've started wearing them everyday. Take my word for it, you wo n't be disappointed.

5 Manuel L.
Great fit, feels nice and light, love the color as well. going to be able to use these for all the activites, from climbing and running, to even swimming and camping!

5 Hunter D.
I have tried every pair of shorts Cotopaxi has made over the past few years and these are by far the best. Super light and comfortable and love the zipper pocket. They are perfectly short too, maybe like a 7 ” inseam. Got complements on them on the first wear and now have 3 colors.

5 Kelley H.
My husband loves these and wears them all of the time.

5 Matt M.
Amazing fit and feel. Truly special pair of shorts. Lightweight and breathable, they 're so comfortable that sometimes I forget I 'm even wearing them. You can feel and see the thoughtful design that went into these shorts. Would 110% recommend to a friend, and would buy another pair in a heartbeat if mine ever rip beyond repair or get lost. Bonus- very effective and minimalistic packaging all around. I could tell right away how intentional this approach plays in saving our planet. Bravo, Cotopaxi!

Excellent fit and cut. Maybe run a little tight in the waist and hips, slim through the leg. The new AP Active fabric is amazing. Its super soft, breathable, has great stretch. I am giving 4* because the front hip pockets are awkwardly short. I have a normal sized mobile phone and it wo n't fit in those pockets( or the rear pockets) vertically. Also, I wonder about the durability of the fabric long term. That being said, I am going to get another pair. I 'd buy even more if these were a tad heavier and with 5 pocket styling.
