These shorts are made to handle heat with a barely-there feel.
[shorts]
These wispy, nylon-elastane blend shorts have a barely-there feel—ideal for managing the desert heat of Utah’s Castle Valley, as our tester did. An incorporated belt ensures custom fit without rubbing under a pack belt. A brushed lining at the waist and crotch make going commando comfortable. Benefit? “AC!” $75; 7 oz.
