Why We Like The Arch Rock Short
We appreciate that Marmot made the Arch Rock Short with technical performance capability for hikers and climbers. Its fabric resists abrasion, stretches for mobility, wicks moisture, and dries quickly for comfort. The Arch Rock also has a DWR coating to repel raindrops and spring showers.

Comfortable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable but not a fan of the belt and fit is a little off

Durable and comfortable
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
Bought for a trip to Joshua Tree and used them for hiking, climbing, and scrambling around boulders. Did a fair amount of butt scooting and no rips/tears or marks. Not a fan of the mesh pockets though but otherwise good shorts.

Good shorts-crappy belt
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
Shorts fit fine but having the belt sewn in at the back is not great. I don't mind the built in belt but at least have belt loops so you can remove the one included as needed or at the very least do not have it sew in the back.

Nice shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not bad. Ordering was difficult because the size on the web page did not match the size chart. I like the shorts but the built-in belt can sometimes cause them to bunch up in front.

Great shorts, run a little big
Shorts are made well, feel good..... I just wish I got a size down. The stretchy part of the waist band has too much give.

Super light short
Lightweight, quick drying short, which is nice for hot weather travel or any sport. Doesn't wrinkle even after long car rides. Once I figured out the buckle (push on the back part of the wide side) I really like the built-in belt.

Good shorts on sale
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good shorts if they're on sale, not sure if I'd pay full price for them. I like the included belt, durability is unknown.

All Around Great Shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work as a naturalist for our local county conservation board and these shorts are perfect for work! I have also worn them on mountain bike rides and they provide the right amount of maneuverability paired with awesome styling for the sport. Form and function meet fashion with these shorts.
