Shorts are great design. Good pockets, good shapes. Perfect shorts. But they seem too large in the waist. For a short that I might choose to go swimming with sometimes, a built in belt would be cool, or make some more in between sizes. the 34 is too small, the 36 is too big. I've found OR has big variation in sizing in the 36" waist of it's clothes. I have a number of items that were all 36" waists but vary by many inches...

If I was to re-order the product I'd pick a longer model, 12" probably. I'll just use it as a bathing suit.

Was looking for a comfortable pair of shorts to wear in the day time at the lower elevations of the Unitas. These are really tight on my thighs and crotch, binding in fact. The waist is true to size, they are light weight, and there are plenty of pockets, but if you have thighs built to go up hill with a load think again. I would recommend this to my less muscular friends.

the shorts are fantastic but they do not fit as the voodoo pants do, you will need to size up in the shorts to get a closer feel and cut to the voodoo pants.

These shorts are great. They are light, soft, stretchy, breathable, and super comfy. My only issue is they are a touch skinny through the leg. I do have larger, athletic sized thighs but I would have hoped these would allow for a touch more room.

Awesome shorts! Fit great, feel great, look great. Light and breathable but also durable, they are definitely already one of my favorite pairs of shorts. Good colors that are unique but still feel true to the outdoors. The zipper side pocket and the zipper back right pocket keep your stuff secure and safe during a hike, and the regular side pockets are deep enough to keep easy access items from falling out. The legs are cut a little thinner than some comparable shorts which cuts down on bulk and is very nice for hiking while the stretch of the fabric allows for unhindered movement even during those large steps. Lightweight and very packable, these shorts will be going with me everywhere.

Great pair of shorts, would be 5 stars but they don't come in 12 inch. Fantastic material and a great short for colder days or hot.

I have hiked 50 km with these shorts and used them for field work and they have been excellent. High quaility material, great range of motion and dry fairly quickly after getting wet. They are comfortable in all conditions.

Shorts really are the best ones I've ever owned hands down. I'm buying my second pair now. The voodoo has a slightly snug/trim fit so big leg dudes beware......may be better off with the ferrosi.
