They get the job done but certainly not a lot special about them. They do dry quickly. The mesh is pretty uncomfortable, I cut the mesh out.

These shorts are perfect for some paddling. They're quick-drying, extremely comfortable, and have a zipper next to the right side pocket for keys, etc. The pockets are deep as well. The lining, on the inside, though, isn't that strong, and is prone to rip. Other than that, I would highly recommend these shorts if you're looking for a great paddling short.

These shorts are great. I am ordering other colors. They are comfortable and durable.

To be honest, I have nothing good to say about these paddle shorts. I referenced the sizing chart and fell into the Medium range; but, the Medium shorts I received are on the Large size. The shorts do not have a zippered security pocket as described. There is no style or professional design to the shorts as you would expect in paying nearly $38 on sale (..the description should reflect that the item was made in China, probably by the same assembly line making children's toys..). The tie string is flat and made of the cheapest material.
