"These shorts are comfortable and have a relaxed fit, but I've only worn them twice and the color is already fading and patchy. I wore them paddle boarding and a big section of the back of the shorts looks worn and faded, the color saturation is just gone. I'm not sure if it's just from sitting on the board for a while, but it's pretty disappointing for the price point. Not sure how much I'll wear them now :-/"
"I am generally a size XL so I ordered this pair of shorts in an XL. They're a little bigger than a general XL, but the tie strings helped them sit just right. They do not ride up like other pairs of shorts that I own and the color is just as shown. Great length, excellent material, and cute color!! Would and probably will buy again."
"I ordered a two pairs of this style a few years back and loved them. Finally bought two more in new colors this year. They fit exactly the same and are just as comfortable! It’s hard to buy the same style even a year apart because sizes change, materials change, but these remain consistent, and I really appreciate and value that."
"I have been wearing Patagonia gear for years but I have been disappointed by their qualify lately as I need to replace my Baggie shorts and other basics. The pockets hit at a great place-there’s no pulling at the hip, a nice lean line! Thanks Cotopaxi. You’re a hit in our active family"
"wore these on a hot, mid-July day for an 18-mile hike in Yosemite. the shorts were light, airy, and breathable. zero complaints! held up great and felt comfortable throughout the full day."
"Not too short, not too long, quick drying and comfy!"
"My new go-to shorts. Flattering, comfy, and well-fabricated."
"Love these shorts! I wore them hiking in Acadia and they were great! I am so glad they have pockets."
"I was so excited to get this from the store. It's super cute with the little details of side lines, back pocket, and the color of the strap. I even ran the running race in these shorts and it was comfy."
"Great fit and feel"
