Short parfait pour les Rando
7 hours ago
Short parfait. Il laisse une très grande amplitude de mouvement, ce qui est génial avec un gros D+. De plus il évacue très bien la transpiration.
Les différentes poches sont très pratiques.
La ceinture se règle aisément et est précisément.
Je l’ai en bleu et noir, je suis très satisfait.
De plus il est résistant, je l’ai utilisé en trek dans les Vosges et

Great shorts, but could use a shorter version.
23 days ago
Good: The fit, quality of the fabric, wash and wear. Really good for travel.
Not so good: For those of us who are vertically challenged, a shorter version would fit better in terms of not being below my knees and requiring shorting the length by a few inches. A 5-inch version would be nice to have.

comfortable, breathable, technical details

After a long time, finally shorts that fit exactly. They are comfortable, incredibly technical and well thought out. The zippered pocket is always so as not to get in the way when sitting or handling. Pleasant and comfortable

Poor quality components
2 months ago
Unusable shorts.
Having purchased these shorts and as spring has come, just starting to attempt to wear them, I am highly disappointed. The popper is not fit for purpose and is as weak as a kitten. They don’t stay buttoned (popped) together. Not fit for use around the house let-alone outdoor activities. A rather expensive waste of money. I have contacted customer services as I am apparently ‘out of my return window’. This is a manufacturing issue with poor quality components so I do hope you sort this out in a timely fashion. I won’t be purchasing anything else until faith in the brand quality is improved.

Greats shorts with an awful design choice
2 months ago
These shorts are meant to be worn, To be used and to be washed. They fit great and have a small stretch. However, the right side pocket Is not stitched to the fabric and will come loose when washing the garment. They used iron-on hem tape for the pocket that will eventually come loose when washing.

Almost perfect except for the…
10 months ago
These are super comfortable shorts, made of lightweight, stretchy and breathable fabric. Also comes with great pockets. They are perfect for hiking, running or any other activity around the mountain.
Design team: the button closure is terrible and it is very hard to keep it close. It just pops open any time the tissue stretches a little bit. Quite annoying!
Fix it and these shorts will be just perfect.
