The WANAKA STRETCH hiking shorts are the perfect solution for summer hikes. Their Drynamic™ fabric makes them lightweight, breathable, and quick-drying, making them perfect for long hikes in hot weather. We appreciate their excellent flexibility on steep climbs. The paneled crotch and flat, semi-elastic waistband are very comfortable and allow for maximum freedom of movement during climbing. The modern cut protects the thighs all the way to the knees. Four hand pockets, two with zippers, at the back and on the thighs provide easy access to essentials.
