Outrageously Comfortable

By Jay Simpson Ranked #978 - Men's Shorts August 13, 2009

This is the third item of Marmot clothing that I've bought, and I have yet to be let down. These shorts are extremely comfortable, cool, and light. Great for wearing around town, lounging in, etc. The fabric has a very nice feel to it, and the marmot logo on the right leg is very subtle. Most people will probably never notice it. For me this is a plus.

Two notes:

1. The BC listing says there are two cargo pockets. There's only one, on the right leg. And it's not a normal cargo pocket. It's a vertical zipper about six inches long. The pocket's not huge, but it's good for a cell phone/wallet/keys/ipod.

2. At retail these are absurdly overpriced. No pair of shorts is worth that much. I got these at a huge discount on SAC, and if I see them again I'll probably buy another pair. If you can get them on sale don't hesitate, but don't pay retail.
