By Tazi's hiking pal from Capital District, NY on 01/29/2009 Pros: High-Quality Material and Stitching Best Uses: Backpacking, Running/Hiking Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I had high hopes that these would be my new go-to hiking shorts, but the material felt rough against my thighs and I was worried they would end up chafing after a long day. I ended up sending them back.
By lovin the outdoors from Lead, SD on 12/15/2008 Pros: Breathable, High-Quality Material and Stitching, Lightweight, Stylish Best Uses: Backpacking, Casual Wear, Travel Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I agree about being too big--buy a size smaller than you normally wear. These are cute from the front or the back. The elastic in the back prevents gapping. Material stretches more than I thought, so easier to move in when bouldering or anything else outdoors. These are the perfect length-a couple inches lower than my fingers when I stand with my hands at my sides, and I'm 5'9".
By Maggie from Newcastle, Au on 07/28/2008 Pros: High-Quality Material and Stitching, Lightweight, Stylish Best Uses: Backpacking, Casual Wear, Travel Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: They're just a little big around the waist, maybe order a size smaller than usual. I still like them in purple and can put in a tuck.

By Mountain Maiden from Durango, Colorado on 06/26/2008 Pros: Breathable, High-Quality Material and Stitching, Stylish Cons: Not Enough Pockets or Features Best Uses: Backpacking, Camping, Casual Wear, Travel, Wet Weather Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Length: Feels true to length Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I was a little skeptical about wearing wool shorts in the summer while hiking uphill and sweating like a dog, but these are amazing. The sweat just disappears! They fit perfectly, are nice looking and seem to be very well made - the inside seams are covered. They do feel a little scratchy - the fabric is not very soft. My main complaint is that they don't have any place, like a beltloop, to hook a keyring.
