What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wasn't expecting corduroy shorts to be this easy to wear, but these have been my daily go-to. They're soft, relaxed, and have just enough structure to not feel sloppy. I toss them on after work or on mellow weekend hikes."From slow mornings at camp to post-ride hangouts, the Corduroy Volley Shorts are made for the moments we slow down and enjoy where we are. With a classic volley silhouette and soft corduroy texture, they bring a little retro comfort into our everyday mix. Patagonia's 12-wale organic cotton corduroy feels broken-in from the start and gets better with every wear. The elastic waistband and adjustable drawcord keep the fit casual and comfortable, while the mid-thigh length hits that just-right spot for everything from town errands to trail strolls. Two hand pockets and a rear patch pocket handle the essentials, and the Fair Trade Certified(TM) sewing supports the folks behind the stitching. These shorts are built to kick back-wherever we are.
