We appreciate that Marmot made the Arch Rock Short with technical performance capability for hikers and climbers. Its fabric resists abrasion, stretches for mobility, wicks moisture, and dries quickly for comfort. The Arch Rock also has a DWR coating to repel raindrops and spring showers.

All Around Great Shorts
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I work as a naturalist for our local county conservation board and these shorts are perfect for work! I have also worn them on mountain bike rides and they provide the right amount of maneuverability paired with awesome styling for the sport. Form and function meet fashion with these shorts.

Good for hot summer, meh for water trunks
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Good lightweight shorts but maybe not as water sports friendly as I was hoping. Can’t complain really

Good short, and good fit
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased these on sale but have an older model with a longer inseam. I am about 5'-7" and did not like the longer inseam. These feel about right on my frame, I have a 30" inseam for reference. It is not want enough for shorts yet where I live so I have not really worn them out and used them hiking. I di wear them around the house and they fit great and the quality seems good. The have a snap instead of a button which I am suspect of. It is really a safer bet if you are out for a multiday hike that you have a button that can be repaired if damaged. I guess we will see how the snap holds up over time. I read a lot of complaints about the sown in belt but it does not bother me and actually works pretty well so don't let that stop you from buying. The belt was easy to latch and unlatch. Just get them and find some sun to enjoy them in!

Desert dreamers
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great shorts! These are the perfect length and material for living in the desert! I like the integrated belt, i just wish there were belt loops because i hang my keys on them

Good all-around short
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A perfect short for any activity outdoors from hiking to pickleball. Love the belt that cinches at the waist and the front zipper pocket.

The everything short
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are perfect. I will typically wear a 35" with shorts like these, because they have stretch and don't really stay on well while hiking. I purchased the 36" and although it has stretch it is not overly stretchy and stays perfectly where it should stay while hiking, sitting, climbing, wading, and any other activity I do. Currently replacing all my hiking pants/shorts with Marmot products.
