prAna Sonora Shorts - Men's - 2007 BCS

I ordered these shorts because I needed a nice pair for climbing with a gusseted crotch that would be durable enough to stand up to the rock. These shorts were well made and looked nice but when I put them on they were WAY too short even though the waist fit perfectly. I'd say 4-6 inches (I'm 6 foot tall 30" waist) above the knee..I guess if you normally like your shorts higher for a "full range of motion" these would be perfect for you but as for me, I'll still to my knee length "long" shorts and dignity.

I've bought several prana pants and shorts over the years and I foolishly orderd some of these shorts without trying them on. I needed a new pair of climbing shorts and bought an XL based on the last pair of pants I had and Hey! they were WAY too large! Genius! With prana stuff, sometimes I'm a large, sometimes and extra large, depending on the year and style. Why prana doesn't go with actual waist measurements is beyond me.

Hmmm... the other reviewer stated that these were too short, but I'd have to say that they're way too long. I'm 6'3" and bought the Med. The shorts are below my knees which is very annoying. I'll be returning them. Otherwise they seemed well constructed.
