    MVP hiking shorts!
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 12, 2022*

I bought these shorts on a lark, last minute, for a trip to Arizona and they ended up being my favorite hiking shorts of the trip! I packed a second pair of shorts from another outdoor brand that I've owned longer but these Columbia shorts were so comfy that I kept choosing them over my other pair.They're incredibly lightweight and pack nicely. Though they wrinkled in my bag, my body heat loosened them up and you'd never know they were wrinkled. The fabric was perfect in the heat. Very lightweight and breathable, I was comfortable (or as comfortable as one can be when it's over 100 degrees) and the UPF claims held up - no sunburn despite the intense Arizona sun. They stretched and moved well but they never got shapeless or baggy. The belt was a nice touch, no slippage or tugging them back up, even with my phone in the pockets. On that note, I found the the pockets to be deep *enough* (compared to other shorts) but my phone did fall out at one point. On steeper trails where I was taking bigger steps, I was a little worried I would lose my phone.My only complaint, and I suppose this is more an issue with my body type, is that despite the 6 inch inseam, they still rode up where my thighs rubbed together. Typically one side would ride up and, on one long hiking day in the Grand Canyon, I got a rash from the friction of the hem on one leg rubbed on the bare skin of my other thigh. It didn't happen on shorter hikes but if you have thicker thighs that are prone to chub rub, you may want to consider longer shorts or an anti-chaffing product. It's not enough to stop me from wearing them, but I wouldn't mind if they had an extra inch in the inseam.Overall, they live up to the claims of being breathable and having UPF protection. I found them to be flattering to my curves, and they didn't look too technical so they don't look out of place if you run into town. They're not perfect due to the shallower pockets and the bunching between my thighs, but I still kept choosing them over my other hiking shorts.

    Comfortable shorts, great for travel and hot days
  

*by G***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 10, 2022*

I have this style of shorts in about 8-10 colors (from previous seasons).  I love the material.  It’s comfortable and cool.  I live in Atlanta and we have a lot of 90+ degree days every summer and these are the shorts I wear on those days.  The length of the shorts is great for being active-walking, hiking, working in the yard.  And, I don’t mind running errands and being seen in “public” in these shorts.  They look nice when paired with a nicer shirt.  I went to Hawaii for 3 weeks and all I packed was 4 pairs of these shorts and 4 pairs of Columbia Anytime shorts (knee length).  I was able to mix and match a different variety of tops with the shorts.  And, if you get something on them, they clean up great with a little soap and water.  They do wrinkle fairly easily but the wrinkles seem to fall out pretty quickly when you start wearing them.There are 2 reasons I am giving these 4 stars instead of 5.  When I received my order of the “Sea  Wave” color, I put them on to make sure they fit the same as my other pairs.  Once I decided they fit fine, I took them off to cut off the tags.  When I unsnapped them, the snap broke!  I was so disappointed.  I immediately contacted Amazon and they sent a replacement.  The replacement did not have this problem with the snap and I have worn them several times since.  So, hopefully it was a one-time problem.  The 2nd problem I have is the belt.  In previous years, the belt has been made of a thinner, smoother material.  This year’s belt is just like the ones that have always come in my husband’s Columbia shorts/pants.  I don’t like this belt as well because it hangs on my shirts.  With the old style belt, my shirt would just glide over the belt and never get hung.Overall, I love this style shorts and I only wish Columbia would bring back the old belt and make them in more colors every season!
