"Do everything shorts" - Review of Patagonia Nine Trails Short - Men's

I love my Nine Trails shorts. They're stretchy, highly breathable, and just all around comfortable. I've been wearing mine mostly for climbing and they haven't shown any sign of wear yet, but the DWR has seen better days (probably because I've sent them through the washer so many times using regular detergent). I can't wait to get out backpacking with these. They have enough pocket space to keep a few things close at hand (two side zip, one rear zip) and secure. I'd like to get another pair for those trips when too much activity and not enough water necessitates taking two pairs of shorts. I'm 6'0" 180 lbs and have a 32/33" waist - the mediums fit me perfectly.
