Mountain Khakis Alpine Utility Short - Men's

Some people wonder why hiking shorts need to be so durable. For those who know the answer, there's the Mountain Khakis Men's Alpine Utility Shorts. These burly shorts are made with super-durable 10.4oz cotton canvas and use triple stitching in all the seams to reduce the chances of a blowout. Alpine Utility Shorts also have a long 11in inseam to make them comfortable while wearing a climbing harness, and their gusseted crotch increases freedom of movement on the trail or the rock.

Bottom Line: The Mountain Khakis Alpine Utility Shorts can be summed up in three words—burly, burly, burly.

These shorts are both as stylish as they are tough. They have rock solid contruction and feel great! Purchase them with the confidence that you are making a sound investment in a superior pair of shorts.

tough short

These shorts are plain tough. They have plenty of pockets and won't wear out on the trail. My only dislike is that the velcro on the back pocket jabs my ass sometimes.

Write your question here...Do they run true to waist size? In

Write your question here...Do they run true to waist size? In Some Mountain Khakis short/pants it tis necessary to go up a size, because the waist runs small.

It is a good idea to go up a size if you are in between sizes for this short. It tends to run a touch smaller than similarly sized MK pants.

I'm a Mountain Khaki fan and these shorts are tough

By:
August 19, 2009

I have a couple of pairs of Mountain Khaki's and so when I saw these, I wanted a pair. They're great. Tough triple stitching like MK's jeans and khaki pants. Comfortable and solid. I can understand the other comments about the back velcro sealed pockets - it feels like the velcro was an afterthought. The pockets themselves are a great size, but the velcro feels a bit of a cheap solution to keeping them closed.

Despite that, I still think they're perfect. I wear them when it's too hot for the MK pants.

great, just what you'd expect if you've owned the long pants

By:
August 15, 2008

I was nervous that the pockets would be too short, or the length too short, but it's great. It doesn't look like short shorts, and the pockets are plenty deep just like the long pants so your wallet and cell phone won't fall out in the movie theater. Great quality as usual from MK, no complaints. Note no cargo pockets.

Quality shorts from Mountain Khakis

By: Backcountry.com Employee
May 30, 2009

After wearing MK Alpine Pants for a couple of seasons I decided to break down and buy some of the shorts. They have the same solid build as the Alpine pants and the same fit. The gusseted is nice for climbing and hiking. My only complaint is that the stash pocket on the side of the right thigh doesn't have a cover so my cell phone falls out regularly when I'm sitting down.
