I picked these up( 2 pair) for a road trip through several national parks. The long inseam is incredible as I 'm 6' 5 ''. They were amazing. Light, flexible, durable. They made my trip hassle free and comfy, even on 12 hour drives.

Great shorts for casual or active wear. I normally wear a 32 but ordered a 31 based on reviews and the fit is perfect without the need for a belt.

These are my favorite shorts. Great for biking, rafting, and most everything else I do all summer long. The material takes a beating, and they dry fairly quickly. The pocket design keeps my wallet out of the way yet accessible.

I love this version of the Ferrosi shorts. I have spent far too much time and money trying to find shorts that met my expectations. These are durable, fit well, and are made of material that is light and stretchy. I do n't overheat in these and they do n't seem to constrict my movement. My only request would be for rear pockets and maybe another belt loop or two, but I understand why the pockets were left off this version as well. Overall, these are great quality shorts. I own several pair in different colors and they are always the first shorts I reach for when I have a choice.

Really solid pair of athletic shorts, I like that there is no liner to them, they are not too long and baggy but not quite PT shorts short. Light weight nice material.

I have multiple pairs of these shorts now. Great quality, durable enough to withstand consistent workouts and the outdoors for hiking. The 7 inch length is most comfortable for me, I like my shorts some distance from the knee. Also, great price!

The Outdoor Research- Men's Astro Short 7 '' is my favorite pair of shorts. They are super comfortable and stretchy, dry easily and do n't look like a hot mess after a long day on the trail or in the yard. Please do n't change these, OR.

I 've had these for over a month now and> 10 workouts. They fit great, size M for an athletic- but- not- huge guy, 6' 2 '' 200# with a waistline that varies 31- 33 ''. Quick drying, great for runs and everything else I 've done in them. They 'll be right at home for daily wear when the weather warms up. If durability maintains, these are a 10/10 for me. Quality feels just a bit better than comparable Patagonia shorts.

These shorts are flattering, comfortable and long enough to make me feel confident when recreating outdoors. They are wrinkle resistant and lightweight. I absolutely love them and got them in two colors!

Incredibly comfortable, I love the longer inseam. I 've worn hiking multiple times and never experience any chaffing. Also very light and breathable material but still feels durable.

I recently purchased a pair of ferrosi shorts, 7 '' length. I 'm 5' 4 and I think the length is great. They are come to a couple of inches above my knee( long enough that there is no inner thigh chaffing) and the shorts are n't too tight in the leg opening( I 'm more curvy vs slim in the thigh). I have n't had a chance to use them heavily yet- will update if I see the need, but expect that they will be great based on what I 've seen so far.

They do n't ride up, the inseam is perfect length& ca n't see anything up my shorts when I 'm on a ladder, the waist band is so stretchy and comfy these are perfect with my heavy tool belt, they keep me so cool on hot

Unbelievable shorts with amazing stretch for those big thigh girlies. I think my only critique is the pockets stick out a little too much for my liking. However the deep pockets are very VERY much appreciated! The waist band of these shorts is supple and so comfy, never a moment of feeling like it ’s too tight or had buttons pushing into me. Can be used for hikes, swims, paddle boarding, and climbing.

Im a female in carpentry and these are my favorite shorts! They do n't ride up, the inseam is perfect length& ca n't see anything up my shorts when I 'm on a ladder, the waist band is so stretchy and comfy these are perfect with my heavy tool belt, they keep me so cool on hot days. And they have a sporty yet professional look to them. These shorts are perfect.

I have already told so many people about these shorts. I swear if they discontinue them I will be devastated! The inseam is perfect, no rolling up and therefore no chafing. The waistband is also perfect, no rolling down. These shorts stay exactly where you want them. Not to mention the pocket space! I 've got enough room for my phone, an inhaler, a soft flask and a gel or two. Love them. I wish they came in different colors, I 'd have them all. I 'm 5' 7, 170 and I got a large, which fit great.

If I could afford it, I would buy 10 pairs of these and wear them every single day! They are super comfy and durable. I mostly wear them under skirts, but sometimes I wear them as actual shorts for activities like kayaking, etc where I want a fitted layer that wo n't ride up my legs.

These shorts are overall great. I 've been looking for some biker shorts that are n't super long but still stay in place, these fit the bill x100. The pockets are plenty deep enough for a phone which will also stay put, even through intensive activity. These shorts have stayed in place through sprint workouts, weightlifting and hiit.

So comfortable I have been wearing them all the time. ... They 're perfect for warm weather. ... Comfortable, breathable, and great quality! ... They 're light weight and rugged enough for everyday

The fit of these shorts is great and I love the high functionality( zip fly, zip pocket), without the high weight. I 'm a muscular thigh guy at 5' 8 '' and 165lbs and the 31 '' fits great, very streamlined straight leg fit. Super comfortable for day wear so far- ca n't wait to take them on a 10- day hike this summer!

Love these as a lightweight summer short. I have a couple pairs in different colors that I rotate through. Really like the drawstring waistband and not having to deal with a belt. The ferrosi fabric is lightweight and durable. They look great too!

They gave the Ferrosi's an adjustable waist draw chord so you do n't have to wear a belt. Excellent shorts, high quality, nice fit, and feel.
