Comfortable, windproof and plenty of pockets, they’re fine down to about 14 degrees C.
Todd
So far, these shorts are great. Lots of pockets, they are very light & I love the integrated belt. If they were 2 inches longer they would be perfect.
Wander
Very good quality, comfortable, breathable and a good lock.
Pete
Great hot weather shorts, great for trekking really comfortable with good sized pockets. Rear pocket fits a guide book.

I like the zippered pockets though it seems there was no consideration as to how the leg ones can handle a cellphone. And why is there no pocket on the left, rear side? There were some good thoughts in designing these though not enough. I'm disappointed.

These are the best travel and hiking shorts I have ever owned
Vush
Love these shorts. Wish they had belt loops to wear a belt for securing holsters etc.
Dave
Just in time for summer and travel. I will buy a pair in black next time.

These shorts are ideal for hiking, light weight, great fit and lots of pockets. I recently traveled overseas and they were perfect, given the varied weather conditions. I am 66yrs 5' 10" 170lb and would definitely recommend them.

I bought two pairs a few months ago to replace my older and much loved previous version of the same shorts. I am deeply disappointed in the design change of the lower front pocket. It is now an interior of mesh-net that is glued at the bottom, and completely useless to hold an iPhone, car keys, or anything you care about losing. The previous version had lower pocket interiors made of the same material as the shorts, and the bottom was stitched to the pant leg. It made for a very reliable pocket to carry most anything that matched the size of the pocket. A great and useful design. The new version has mesh pockets upper and lower -- therefore no reliable pockets anywhere. Mesh pockets wear out quickly and develop holes for things to drop out, and the glued bottom seam is a horrible design that cannot even endure the weight of a smart phone. My two pairs of new shorts no longer provide pockets for me to carry a phone or anything else that I fear will drop through the holes. Very regrettable change.

Great shorts like my older lefdoys but a little thicker. But more importantly I’d really like to see some Boardies from Arc’teryx. So many other companies have gone out and Arc should get into the water Sport market as well. I’ll wear boardies for everything from biking to running and casual. Side leg pocket a must and tie string outside to allow waist adjustments please!
James
Great shorts. Great cut. Perfect for hiking and anything outdoors
Steven
Great short , used hiking and travelling throughout Europe

I got this a few months ago and I worn them climbing, hiking, and traveling. They have been exceptional in every occasion. The flexibility makes them feel like gym shorts but still retain a more put together look. And the pockets are super useful without being extremely noticeable like cargo shorts. I got them in another color just because they are so nice.
