Love these shorts. I normally wear xl for the leg room but large fits perfect. Only downside is one back pocket on the right side. No love for left handed people Bought 5 pairs. Highly recommend them

Love these shorts, I have been a fan of Quandary pants for years and finally decides to get some shorts. They are great in almost all temperatures and dry quickly when wet. I do with they made a 6 '' but the 8 '' is just fine. No complaints

These shorts are roomy, soft, and have a comfortable fit with elastic waistband. Zip pocket is a nice feature. Drawstring is both fuuctional and looks nice. Would recommend these shorts for outdoor or indoor use.

These alpine shorts are great. I love the serene blue color. The shorts are true to size and fit well. It hits more mid- rise, which I really like and the waist is n't too tight and the length is just right. The only negative is the material. It's different- kind of crinkly- but very comfortable at the same time.

My son loves these shorts. I told him They ’ d be great for mowing the lawn, he ’ d prefer to wear them for soccer practice. They wash up great, his only complaint is that there's not much give to the elastic waist.

These are terrific every day shorts. These are perfectly long enough. The material is breathable and light weight. These are very comfortable shorts. I love how versatile these shorts are. I love wearing these at the lake and hiking.

MargaretH1
Lightweight shorts that will be great for warm weather and water activities. Slightly baggy as other reviews mention but that's probably an advantage as this material( crinkly swim trunk vibes) does not stretch. Debating buying a second pair!
$75.00
Like the 2- way zipper pockets: a must have for securing valuables while mountain biking. ... I like the stretch, the deep front pockets and the secure zipper pocket on the left

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

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.

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.

Super stretchy hiking shorts with built in belt. I like the addition of the belt and a little longer than the average shorts. Would buy them again.

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.

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.

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!

[ I love these shorts — I find it almost impossible to find shorts that fit me( narrow waist, curvy through butt and thighs), but these fit perfectly. The material is light, comfortable, dries quickly, and seems to resist odors better than other athletic shorts I have. The little zippered pocket is a nice touch, too. I only wish they came up a little higher on my waist! 5 ’ 5 ” 120 lbs, ordered size XS.

[ Surprised how comfortable these short are. Very high quality. I like the fit alot, not to short not to long. I will be using these for hiking. Worn about 7 times now and still loving them.

[ These are my first pair of wool shorts so I was n't sure what to expect. They are fantastic! I thought that they would attract dog hair( I have 4 pups), and they have n't at all! My only problem is that I 'm kind of a hard fit right now and I did n't want them to be too small so they are a bit too big. But that's completely my fault. Very happy with these and I 'm sure I 'll be buying more.

HikeHappy27
[ I bought these shorts over the summer before a big camping trip in the Rockies and Tetons and they held up perfectly. Finally shorts that do n't ride up with any sort of movement and they kept me cool and wicked sweat. The length is perfect in the sense they are not too long or too short. I bought three more colors and these will be the only shorts I will wear now.

Quality shorts, with amazing features. Love the fit. I also love the extra ventilation that the mesh pockets afford. The loop on the waistband that you can hang hats or keys or other equipment on is a nice added touch. I do wish the elastic in the back of shorts would give more. It doesn ’ t seem to stretch that much and the fit is a little too stiff for my level of movement. More colors to pick from would be nice as well. Really impressed by these shorts

Ashley V.
After wearing these shorts for a short period of time, they quickly became my husbands number 1 pair of shorts. When asked what he likes most about them he pointed out that they are incredibly stretchy and flexible but have a nice sturdy feel to them. He prefers a trimmer fit to his shorts with longer inseams and these were perfect! They also have cargo short style storage while still looking much cleaner and sleeker. He does wish there was a second pocket on the rear.

Eric H.
Wear these shorts all summer long and never be disappointed. Stretch material is so comfortable you barely notice these are even on. I roll these up and bring them in pack every trip, they 're great for when I get to camp and start to chill, they work as swim shorts and dry quick, they work if it's really a hot day and the trail is n't too rugged. Only thing is the pockets can be uncomfortable if they 're loaded up too much. I rarely use them.

Very comfy, great fit and generous pockets. I can fit all my essentials; phone, keys, wallet, lip balm, handkerchief, sunglasses. Only wish the flaps had a secure closure. The flaps are heavy enough that things don ’ t fall out and the third pocket zips shut. Still a win.

I bought two pairs of these and I absolutely love them. I ’ m pear- shaped and short( 5 ’ 1 ”) and these are flattering, not too tight, and not too short. Plus, they have all these fun pockets without being bulky or silly looking. They will be perfect for summer walks/hikes or just cute with a t- shirt in the backyard.

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.

I purchased these with several out MH shorts. These are by far my favorite. They run slightly large in the waist. and Slightly narrow in the thigh area. I 'm 6, 4 195lb athletic build, My quads and thighs are not huge, these shorts are a bit tight but the length on point they hit right at or just above the knee. Other than that these things are super comfortable, stylish, functional. They have the perfect stretch and the pockets are awesome. I 'd go down a size I normally wear a 33 and these are just a bit big when I purchase again I 'll buy a 32in waist.

Sheepdogg
I 've really come to like the fit and function of the AP shorts( and pants). I now own the shorts in gray and tan- brown and the pants in tan- brown as well as dark green( which the later fit me the best- the tan- brown are a little too snug). I really like the zippered back pockets. Each time I use the back pocket the zipper functions very smooth. Quality and sturdy. I also appreciate the Velcro closer pocket on the right thigh for carrying my iPhone 6s which is in a case and still fits nice and snug.

ElwoodDB
[ I was in need of some new shorts. I am 5' 8 '', with a 30 '' waist, so a lot of shorts on the market have very wide legs, making it difficult to find shorts that I 'm not drowning in. These shorts fit the bill. Great stretch in the fabric, and slimmer legs make for an exceptional short. They are comfortable, not too tight for a slimmer fit, and seem very durable. These shorts are a must- have for summer.

[ I had recently purchased the Hardwear AP Pant and really enjoyed the comfortable fit& material, so I decided to take a gamble on the short. I was pleasantly surprised to find the fit was the same as the pant. Now I need to pick up a few more colors because this is definitely my favorite pair of shorts to wear.

I have two pairs of these and have put them through the ringer. I love the stretch material and rugged reinforced areas. The pockets are strategically placed and my thin wallet fits nicely in the front pocket as i also wear these as everyday shorts. Very breathable and dry very fast. The guys and girls from Fjallraven know what their doing. You definitely get what you pay for. Thumbs up on the best shorts i 've ever owned.

I have purchased four pairs over as many years, one was nearly identical called Abisko Lite Trekking Shorts but I see no difference, the current `` Lite '' model does look different. Anyhow these are simply great from nearly every perspective. Light, but reinforced where you 'd want them to be. Stretchy and slim, not baggy and sloppy and yet you never feel constrained by them especially if you have big thighs. I 'm very glad there's no back pockets but instead a reinforced seat, my area if NE has much sharp granite you end up sitting on these do well. There's two well thought out low- profile cargo pockets that look sharp and are actually useful. Glad there's a mesh pouch for a phone in one. And low profile zippers for the properly deep hand pockets to keep items from falling out. What would I add? two small plastic snaps on the bottom cuffs so you could roll them up once and get a little more above the knee thigh cooling. I 've noticed I do this when I am really working and even without any kind of snap the stretchy material generally keeps the `` cuff '' and lets me have a shorter short. Also side vent zips please!. Then these would be absolutely perfect. Anyhow, pair five is being picked up soon.
