What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "These are my favorite shorts for summer climbs and hikes. The Ferrosi fabric stretches just right, dries fast after river crossings, and feels super light. The 10-inch inseam gives enough coverage without being restrictive, and I like having a zippered pocket to keep keys or a snack secure."We pull on the Outdoor Research Ferrosi 10in Short when adventure calls and summer heat is in full swing. Built from a durable ripstop softshell, these shorts combine abrasion resistance with four-way stretch to keep us scrambling up boulders, charging trails, and lounging at camp in comfort.Moisture-wicking fibers and a DWR finish keep us dry through sweaty climbs and light drizzle, while the lightweight feel makes them perfect for long days under the sun. A streamlined fit sits comfortably under harnesses or hipbelts, and the thoughtful pocket layout stashes essentials close at hand. Rugged, breathable, and versatile, the Ferrosi short is our do-it-all summer staple.
