Hiking is made easy with the Exploration Shorts. The light and durable stretch fabric moves with you instead of restricting you, allowing you to push forward with relative ease. Light, stretchy and with handy pockets, the Exploration Shorts are pretty much a summer hiking essential. The nylon-elastane fabric mix is durable but forgiving and, when combined with a gusseted crotch, ensures you enjoy full range of motion even on steep, stepped trails. The water-repellent finish brushes off light summer showers and two hand pockets, two rear pockets and a zipped thigh pocket provide plenty of secure storage.
