Solid Shorts

I was pleasantly surprised by these shorts. Usually, I don’t like the compression material that biker shorts are made of but the material they used for these shorts is so soft and comfortable. I also really appreciated the belt and pockets. It was nice to keep everything I needed for the hike on my person. Only downside of these for me is they did ride up my leg while I was hiking which was sometimes uncomfortable.

Good Quality, But Compression-like Fit

These shorts are a great all-around workout length. The fit is very snug, almost compression-like. I ordered an 8, which is my size in every other Arcteryx product, and it was almost too tight. Fabric is good quality and NOT see-through.

Versatile Short -- Love The Pockets!

I have worn these shorts around town, weekend cycling trips and short trail runs. They are so comfy and stylish but my favorite thing about them is the pockets! They are large and deep enough to securely hold my phone and an assortment of snacks -- the have proven their practicality during even the most energetic endeavors. If you're someone like me with more athletic, larger thighs, these shorts are great! They stay perfectly in place, avoiding the dreaded thigh roll-up. If you're searching for shorts that offer comfort, versatility, practicality, and a fit that stays put, look no further.

Love These Shorts!

I love wearing these for running, yoga, climbing, and around town. The pockets are so wonderful to have for phone/wallet/keys. I live in these. They're not see-through in yoga and in strength training classes. These have really stood up to the test of alpine running, and long slogs.
