Good quality material but fit was not good for me
The material seemed excellent and the color was good too (a dark red color). But for whatever reason the fit did not work for me. Hard to describe why. I have bought other shorts from Columbia with the same waist measurement (30) and they were fine. These did not feel comfortable due to sizing/fit. Hard to be more specific - just wasn't right.

Good Quality
The material is very light and breathable. They feel very comfortable through a large rage of motion and dry quickly. After get wet, they were completely dry very fast in about 15 minutes. These are now my go to hiking and outdoor sport shorts, I would highly recommend them.

Nice comfortable shorts
I'm a 6 ft, 1in, 205. I wear a 36 on avg. I read the reviews that said these shorts run a little small. That's not the case. These run true to size. They are lightweight, and stylish. The short breathe well, also. I bought a 38 in this short. I'll need to get a 36 instead.

The shorts are light weight and with a zipper pocket.
In Europe 3 weeks, washed many times and dry the next morning.
Best thing takes up little to none space in suit case.

Columbia Silver Ridge Cargo Short
This is my second pair of these shorts....bought two this time in khaki & grey. Packable, durable, 24-hour shorts. Yes, comfortable enough to sleep in! Strong pockets and very breathable...my favorites by far at a dove shoot or a trout stream!

These shorts are light, breathable, quick dry and almost like wearing nothing. I wish they came in Black. I would buy 4 more pair for work next summer.

Light and comfortable with a couple issues
Let me start by saying I really like these shorts. They have a light comfortable fabric that I could live in. They move with me comfortably and the size was perfect. I have two small critiques that seemed to stand out. The pockets in the front are a little dainty and it feels like it wasn’t built to hold a current size cell phone. I don’t feel comfortable keeping my phone in a front pocket. The other thing is the button. You’re wondering what could be wrong with a button. Well, it’s long! There’s about 1/2” of button on these shorts and when you wear them all day and combine that with the belt then it pushes into your stomach for hours making it a little uncomfortable. Make the pockets a little deeper and the button on the front shorter and these are perfect!

Great shorts with nice pockets
My husband is hard on his clothes and so I bought these so he has the large pockets he likes and has shorts that will hold up to hard use.
Wrinkles fall out within a few minutes.

Great shorts for hot & humid weather
I bought these along with the Half Moon III shorts and prefer these. The cargo pockets are much more functional, with one that zips for more valuable things like a wallet and the other with velcro. These also have a longer inseam, which I prefer. The velcro cargo pocket is also good for EDC if that is your preference. These breathe and do not feel hot like polyester or cotton cargo shorts. My only complaint is the pockets are mesh so my keys sometimes get hung up on them, but not a deal breaker for me. I prefer to stay cool in the TN heat and humidity. I would certainly buy again when they are in stock.

Hiking and kayaking shorts
Lasted a long time, but the zipper pulled apart after several years, but before any fabric wear. Tried to fix, but no luck.

I FOUND COLUMBIA
For years I have been buying Eddie Bauer or Timberland clothing. I found over the years that their products have changed and I was just not happy with the fit and quality.
Just recently my wife purchased a pair of Columbia shorts for me and ever since I have become almost addicted to Columbia products.
The shorts were great quality, lightweight, great fitting and everything I want in a pair of shorts.
My wife and I like to travel light and these shorts help with that. They can we hand washed, hung up and worn in the morning.
I have since ordered several more pairs and will order more as time goes on.
A great product! (This review was collected as part of a promotion.)

I was looking for a lightweight cargo short that was comfortable and gave me freedom of movement. These shorts check all of those boxes and are at home in the field as well as at any casual event. I'm about to buy a second pair.

I used to get these in womans but when they were no longer available, so I started buying mens. I love the longer length. They protect me from the sun but are still cool. The zipper pocket to secure items is a must.

short pockets
light weight, dries fast, cool in summer months, plenty of pockets, zippered and velcro back pockets. Only draw backs small belt loops and front pockets not deep enough. Would not keep keys or anything of value in front pockets as they could get lost by falling out.

I love these shorts! They are feather weight and sooooo very comfortable. Be aware, however, that the waistband is elastic, so you may want to order one size SMALLER than what you normally wear.

Men's Silver Ridge Cargo Short
I am very pleased with these shorts. The material is perfect for the hot Tucson summer. I would give them 5 stars except for the mesh side pockets. The mesh tends to catch on things and I would like the pockets to be a little deeper. The extra “cargo” pockets are great.

Silver Ridge Shorts
I really like the Silver Ridge pants/shorts, they are light weight and durable as anything I have in my closet. You can safely beat them up, get them dirty and throw them in to the washer without any fuss. These are great shorts and I have had my silver Ridge pants for 4 years and counting, highly recommend.

Another perfect product
These shorts are the lightest, most breathable, most comfortable shorts I own, this is the 2nd pair I bought and approx. the 12th item from Columbia I've ordered over the last couple months. I absolutely love their products and now my wardrobe is approx. 80% Columbia, which is perfect for my very warm, humid climate that I live in. Thanks for making such awesome products, keep up the excellent work!
