Stuffing a towel and an exceptionally bad book into our backpack and heading to the beach pairs perfectly with the Patagonia Baggies 5in Shorts. As does going for a run, and just as well does getting in a quick seaside free-climbing session. Actually, we do just about anything we can think of in these summer classics. The Baggies have been around for as long as Patagonia has, and with the all-purpose function of a DWR-coated, recycled nylon, elastic drawstring waist, and mesh hand pockets, they don't show any signs that they'll be going away any time soon.
