Great Shorts for ANY activity!
I wear these shorts to work (dog daycare: they repel drool and easily wash), to hike, to lounge around, to the gym...the pockets make them super convenient for keys or a few dollars. I highly recommend them, especially for activities that require a fast drying, comfortable short!

Best sport shorts!
I love these shorts. They are the perfect length, made of lightweight fabric that dries quickly and that I barely feel. The waistband is not too high or tight and doesn't bind. They're just baggy enough that they don't choke me during activities yet not so baggy that I feel like I'm wearing men's shorts. They fit great over a bathing suit and work well for exercising, walking, running, tennis (the pockets hold several balls) and kayaking. I own 3 pairs and all have held up well for several years (except one with a print that pilled pretty badly). I'm always on the lookout for new colors!

love these shorts!
I am very happy with these shorts, super fabric, beautiful light blue color, well designed pockets. my only quibble is with the length--wish they were just a couple inches longer, I'll just have to cope, they're still the best around for exercising.

OK
I have had numerous pairs of these shorts for about 10 years and they do last a long time. But Patagonia does seem to change the styling slightly every couple of years. My complaint with these is the rise gets kinda big as the sizes go up, which leaves us short people( 5'4") with a choice. We can push the excess fabric down around our waists where it bunches up and is bothersomely bulky and pouchy! The other option is to pull the excess fabric up around you ears, if you like to wear your shorts like chest waders! So, just because we are wider in the butt area, it does not mean we are also growing in height!!!

If I could only have one pair of shorts.....
these would be it. I love my Patagonia baggies. They come in great colors and are perfect for all my outdoor pursuits. They dry fast, pack up nice and light in my backpack or kayak and look great. They're perfect.
