Ferrosi 7in Short - Men's

New favorite shorts

I discovered ferrosi pants this winter and instantly fell in love with the comfort/stretch, durability, breathability and simultaneous wind resistance, even the fit is pretty good for my XL body. I had a good feeling the shorts would deliver the same experience, and I am pleased to find that they are just as great as the pants led me to believe they would be. Simple, effective belt. Ferrosi fabric, zippered leg pocket. Perfect shorts! Definitely going to be getting more colors for this summer.

Comfy and cool

Very lightweight shorts in a cool color. Built in belt is nice. Comfy and easy to wear

Men's Ferrosi Shorts - 7" Inseam

Amazing shorts!! Fit, function and form!!! Already dual use in the Atlantic Ocean and Florida Bay for hiking, diving, camping and fishing !!! Super light weight, wicks water incredibly fast and comfortable in warm humid weather!! Will be buying more pairs of these and by far the best shorts I have owned above Patagonia, North Face etc....

Color not as appeared on website

Nice pair of shorts. However, I wanted the vivid orange that was on website. The pair that arrived was definitely not that orange. Disappointed I have to pay for return shipping on shorts that are not as advertised.

My Go-To Climbing Shorts

Love the fabric used - light yet durable. Not hot. Love the zippered pocket for my phone on rock climbs. My go-to shorts for hot climbing days or hikes. Would recommend.

Great shorts all around!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They fit great, are super breathable and water resistant. I love the look of the 7" inseam. I highly recommend these.

Solid adventure shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They dry quick, are a little stretchy, and you can wear them without a belt! Very good equivalent to the ferrosi pant which is my every day pant for everything.

Best shorts ever!!

I am OBSESSED with these shorts! I’m a female-bodied person but bought these because the women’s version are only 5 inches, and i have thighs that rub together when I walk, so that wasn’t going to cut it and I got these instead. And WOW I have no regrets!! The length is perfect, and the pockets are super deep, I love that there are butt pockets and a cargo pocket too! The belt is awesome and adjusts easily to accommodate my cyclical daily IBS bloating, so they fit and are comfortable all the time. My only complaint is that the webbing slips out of the buckle pretty easily when I’m pulling them over my hips, and I’ve almost lost the webbing into the waistband, but I’ve started clipping it at the max width when I take them off which is wide enough for me to ge them off and I don’t have to worry about the belt slipping out. The purple color is also super cute and I will definitely be coming back for more of these!

Awesome shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great fit and material. Love the attached belt and pockets.

Perfect!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the "Quarry" shorts from OR in 2020 alongside Ferrosi pants. I loved the pants but was so disappointed by the shorts - I don't have tree trunk legs but I had never worn shorts that were that tight on my thighs. I'm so glad they created a shorts version of the Ferrosi pants, and I'm glad I gave them a second chance, because these fit fantastic. Great stretch, love the integrated belt, and a really light fabric. If I *had* to criticize, I would say the orientation of the pockets takes some getting used to, but I also imagine they're designed to make it harder for things to fall out of your pockets. Definitely will get another pair!
