What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "These shorts are the definition of go-anywhere gear. They've got the look and feel of casual cotton but hold up to boat days, hikes, or even a quick surf session."From boat deck mornings to town strolls in the afternoon, Patagonia's Home Waters Natural Hybrid 18in Shorts are designed to keep up. The rugged yet lightweight ripstop fabric is crafted from organic cotton, recycled polyester, and spandex for breathable stretch and lasting durability. A drawcord waistband with a zip fly ensures a secure fit, and the pockets-including one with a key loop and drainage-make these as functional as they are comfortable. An 18-inch outseam keeps the cut modern, while Fair Trade Certified(TM) stitching ensures your purchase supports ethical manufacturing.
