Best Shorts!
I love these shorts. They're perfect for warm weather. Good for casual outings or hiking and fitness.

So comfortable
So comfortable I have been wearing them all the time. They also look really good. I'm convinced the Ferrosi material is the most comfortable, durable, lightest, least restrictive material around for bottoms. Go and get the pants and these shorts now.

Comfy but flawed
These shorts are very comfortable, have lots of stretch for mountain scrambling and biking, breathe well, and look good. Unfortunately the material doesn't seem very durable as it's already pilling along the pockets and seat. The front pockets are also too wide and shallow so items easily fall out when seated with a slight angle back (like driving or sitting up in a tent). I have 10-year-old similar shorts from a competing brand that are better in all those respects. These could be great so hopefully they'll improve them in the next design phase but I would not recommend purchasing these now if you plan to use them for a long time like I do with my apparel.

2nd Pair
Just got my second pair of Ferrosi shorts. They're light weight and rugged enough for everyday life. They're my go to shorts for the summer!!

Lightweight, breathable, comfortable
I have Ferrosi pants which I love. These shorts are basically, the same, but short. Lightweight, breathable. They have water repellent treatment, so small drops of water are just rolling over fabric. After they got wet, they are drying really quick. The material is stretchable, which makes them comfortable to wear. It also is very thin, to the point where it looks fragile. However, I didn't have any issues so far using them for hiking, walking with a kid on a playground, riding a bike, going on a beach. I ordered the same size as my Ferrosi pants and it fits perfectly. For me it is the same as my jeans size or other pants size, so I would call sizing very accurate. It's my go-to shorts, and I'm happy with them.

Fit not the same as before
I have consistently worn a 32 in ferossi and voodoo shorts for many years. The new shorts I purchased in a 32 fit like a 28. Sizing has lost consistency, unfortunately. Great materials and build quality per the usual just inconsistent sizes.

Not what I was expecting when product arrived.
I bought the Ferrosi Shorts and pants online without seeing/touching them. While the fabric is good for tropical climates, I find it quite light for the mountain environment I live in. As well, the pants, though new, look quite frumpy, with not a lot of style, shape in them.

Excellent Shorts
Exactly what I needed for teaching physical education. They're nice and comfortable so I can wear them all day while moving around in class. The pockets are also handy for keeping my keys, whistles, etc. I'll also use these shorts for hiking and other outdoor activities. Comfortable, breathable, and great quality!
