The Men's Stretch Zion Short from prAna wants to climb, hike, and play all summer long. A little bit of stretch makes these tough shorts follow your every move. Cargo pockets hold onto your stuff to let you keep your hands free for buildering or hitchhiking back to camp. A fast drying and breathable cotton blend is comfortable enough to wear from Alabama to Zion.
These shorts rock! They're my go to short for warm days camping, climbing or just hanging out. The have held up super well and I know that they'll serve my well for years to come. I really like the zip back pocket so I know my funds won't end up at the bottom of the mountain.
These shorts are awesome! They're perfect for biking, hiking, running, swimming (though they don't have a liner)... The zippered pockets are convenient (glad there's no velcro) and they look good. You can basically do any of the activities above and still go for a bite and a beer without looking like a frocio. I bought the pants and a pair of shorts for my dad.
These shorts are fantastic, great for climbing, swimming, hiking, and all-around outdoor play. They stretch to your movements, dry quickly, and look pretty sharp. I would say that the 2006 model was much better than the current one. The snap closure, and velcro fly was much sleeker when it came to answering the call of nature without taking off the harness. Also, the "belt" feature in this model bunches something fierce, and looks awkward. It also shrinks a tad in the wash, but all in all I LOVE these shorts.
