"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I picked these up for a young adventurer in my family for summer trips, and the quick-drying nylon was a total win going from the beach to lunch and back to the water without any fuss. The brushed elastic waistband stays comfortable all day, and the gusset insert gives real freedom of movement for active kids who never stop moving.""Summer days are long and unpredictable for kids, and the Patagonia Baggies 4in Short is built to handle all of it without slowing anyone down. Crafted from NetPlus recycled nylon faille made from post-consumer fishing nets, the lightweight fabric is quick-drying and wind-resistant with a PFAS-free DWR finish that sheds light moisture and bounces back fast after swims, sprints through sprinklers, and every other wet adventure the season brings. A 4-inch inseam and relaxed regular fit keep things comfortable and free without getting in the way of movement. The soft brushed elastic waistband sits gently against the skin without digging in, and an internal drawcord lets parents or kids dial in the fit for a secure, customized feel throughout the day. Mesh-lined front pockets drain water quickly after water play and provide handy storage for small treasures found along the way, while a gusset insert opens up full range of motion for running, jumping, and climbing without restriction. Built from Bluesign-approved recycled materials, the Baggies 4in Short gives young adventurers the same quality and performance as the adult version in a fun, kid-sized package."
