"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""These shorts are my go-to for everything—beach walks, quick swims, running errands. The short inseam and flowy fabric are super comfortable, and they dry crazy fast.""Summer demands gear that transitions seamlessly between activities, so we designed the Patagonia Barely Baggies 2. 5in Short to excel whether we're hiking coastal trails or cooling off in alpine lakes. Soft synthetic fabric dries quickly while the short inseam maximizes sun exposure, creating shorts that embrace the season's potential rather than limiting it."
