Why We Built The Wasatch Ripstop 3.5in Short
"The belt sits in the perfect place and doesn't get in the way of my harness or backpack. When I want to wear it higher, I can cinch it in for a tighter fit." —Gearhead® Expert Jo
We designed the Wasatch Ripstop Short for venturing along lightly trafficked singletrack that leads to hard-earned views. The built-in stretch gives us room to straddle over fallen trees, and the lightweight fabric brushes off overreaching brush and quickly dries away summit drizzles.

Go to summer shorts
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
These are my favorite shorts to date. I wear them everywhere; hiking, beach, out around town. You can dress them up or down. It's especially hard to find a nice fitting pair of shorts for a curvy gal like myself. I hope they make them in more colors!

Restock please!

Best shorts on the planet! They’re great for running around outdoors but cute enough to head into town. They fit perfect. The pockets are useful with the zipper closures. The belt is incredibly comfortable. Dry super fast. And very flattering on. Excellent coverage in all the right areas. Not tight! But not too loose. Please please restock on smaller sizes!!!

Great shorts!

These shorts are amazing! I was able to snag the light green color, before they went out of stock, and its so nice to have some bright colored activity shorts! They are lightweight, easy to move in, and with the elastic belt built in, very adjustable

Great shorts! Had my luggage stolen and hoping these restock in xs/s prior to next big hiking adventure November 2024 so I can replace

Love them

I ordered two pairs after going on a hike in these. I avoid shorts because I cannot stand when they ride up in the inner thigh....if you know, you know. Anyway. I wear these all the time. I love them and I love that they dry so quickly!

The best shorts ever
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I bought a pair in black last year and fell in love. I was heart broken they were then sold out of my size in all colors. I was so excited when just recently I checked and they were back in stock. I now have them in 3 colors. (The pattern pair is the only one I didn’t buy) They are perfect for camping, biking, the beach, theme parks—I wore them every day for a 3 day Disney vacation. I LOVE that the front pockets zip and they have a built in belt, they are quick dry and the perfect length. (My thighs don’t rub together) I bought the size M, I’m normally around a size 8 and they fit perfect. I love that they are a little high waisted.

Where have these been all my life!

Bought these a month ago and pretty much haven't taken them off. They fit perfectly (I am a S/M and went with a small) with plenty of room for athletic thighs! They don't ride up or down and the zip pockets fit my phone and snacks for the day without looking too bunchy. Please add more colors!!

Ordering in All Colors

- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Alas, the perfect hiking short! As soon as I put these on I knew I had to order all the colors. I am a true medium/ size 8 and these fit perfectly. I hate tight shorts around the waist and thigh and these have just enough room in both. I love the belt for when I load up the zippered pockets. I also love the side detail on the hem (very flattering!) and the longer coverage in the back. 10/10 Backcountry!

True to size
- Familiarity:

I’m not sure if the previous versions ran large but the one I ordered May 2024 Kalamata runs true to size. I’m usually between a small and medium depending on the brand and a 6/8 size and the medium fits really well. These shorts are so lightweight and the perfect length. The zippered front pockets just fit my iphone 14 pro with a case. The belt is great for a customized fit. I find elastic bottoms will slide down if you have things in the pockets- doesn’t happen with these!
