Fjallraven

Nikka Curved Short - Women's

Almost perfect! Hope they tweak it!

Almost the perfect shorts ever! So close! (just needs elastic in the waistband to be 5 star) . What I love: (1) the pockets are amazing - all women's bottoms should have such great, deep pockets, with a mix of zipped and buttons! LOVE that! THANK YOU, Fjallraven, for the pockets! (2) The length of the legs is great. I hate short shorts, but usually longer shorts make me look frumpy... not these. I like to roll them up one hem-length and love how that looks/feels. (3) The curvy fit is SO FLATTERING. I never thought that longer shorts could look so good on me. These look amazing. I feel... sexy in them! Who knew! (4) Stretch - the fabric overall feels great and stretchy and durable. (5) Colour - I got the navy, and they just look so nice, with the little logo icon fox standing out nicely against the dark blue. My husband even commented on the colour. (6) The waist sits perfectly - not too high, not too short. Hits a nice spot. . Why not a 5-star review? Because I REALLY want some elastic/stretch in the waist. I love my Stina trousers, which are comfortable all day due to the small elastic sections they have put into the waistband. These shorts are comfortable for a while, but the lack of elastic in the waist means I start feeling the waist/button dig in after a few hours, or during different positions/activities. They just need to fix this, and I would be buying all the colours and getting rid of all my other shorts! . Should you buy some? I think it's worth getting a pair, for sure. Functionality, quality, and flattering fit are superb. I won't be buying a second pair in hopes that Fjallraven will make the EXACT same shorts with some elastic in the waist! Fjallraven, please don't change a thing about these except put elastic in the waist!!!

Finally women’s shorts with really good pockets

I bought these shorts a few weeks ago and absolutely love them. Finally a super well made pair where I can put a wallet, phone and other things in my pockets. Yay!! SUPER!! How many shorts across brands I have searched and tried only to be disappointed, concluding that other -even very costly- brands seem to think that women don’t need deep pockets (?!). So: Kudos and ***thank you*** to Fjällraven for their Nikka shorts. For me it really was about good pockets in well-made shorts. No more searching needed. Fjällraven’s got it! 5/5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

Great for hiking

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

Absolute for of Fjallraven. Got these in shorts version for hiking expedition in Galapagos. Love the features, pack up great and super comfortable. Front pockets with zips and snaps keeps all secure and never have to worry about phone falling out. Stretch in all right places makes climbing on any terrain a breeze. I can't wait to get these in more colors!

Nikka shorts

An excellent fit which allows easy movement, resulting in great comfort. The large leg pocket is ideal for my phone, keeping it close at hand for photos and checking the walking trail. The material is thick enough to feel robust but light enough to feel cool, and washes well. A sound investment which I expect to use for many summers.

Adjustable waistline with lower cut

Please add a more flexible waistline, low cut for better fit/performance. I love this style but need a better fit/flexible waistline. Especially when I'm backpacking I'll opt for a different brand to accommodate, but I like your overall style/performance better.

Favorite Pant in Short Form!

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I'm a huge fan of the Nikka Curved Trouser and was super excited to find that one of my favorite pants also comes in a short. These are great for being active outdoors. The longer length makes them much more versatile. The zippered and snap pockets allow me to carry what I need without worrying about anything falling out. It's great to have women's products with real pockets!
