Womens Strider Pro 3.5" Short

The 3.5" inseam is exactly what I wanted—no riding up on the climb and no constant tugging. The bonded seams are also way less itchy against my skin than regular stitched shorts, which I noticed on a long day out.

The three pockets actually hold my phone and a snack without bouncing, which I didn't expect from shorts this light. Bonded seams mean no chafing on long days out, and the 3.5" inseam hits just right.

Wore these on a 12-mile ridge hike and barely noticed them — the bonded seams mean zero chafing even with a pack belt digging in. The three pockets actually hold my phone and a couple gels without bouncing, and the 3.5" inseam hits right where I want it.
