Gear Review: Stoic Thrive

Stretchy poly fabric and and a gusseted crotch provide killer freedom of movement in these comfortable shorts.

[shorts]
Get supreme comfort with a streamlined waistband—a swath of seamless fabric smooths the zone between the waist and seat—that eliminates rubbing beneath a pack’s hipbelt. Stretchy poly fabric (15 percent spandex) and a gusseted crotch provide killer freedom of movement. Nitpick: Pockets are too shallow.
