Favorite shorts
Light and very comfortable. These are great for running but also for wearing on a warm day. They don't cling to you like a lot of shorts do.

Prana, please, bring back the old shorts designs!
No great use for these shorts except to lounge around the house. They are comfortable, but sweat is so visible on them I cannot recommend wearing them to the gym. Too flexible and soft for climbing. Gotta wonder if Prana got bought out by some private equity or something to change them into a "lifestyle" brand rather than one that produces rugged outdoors clothes.

Two Reasons Why These Aren't Perfect
Thought these would be my new favorite all-around shorts, but two reasons why they aren't:
1. Fit is quite large, most crucially because the rise is too long (tall). The measurement from the crotch to the top of the waistband (rise) is too long, about the exact width of the elastic waistband. If I fold over the elastic waistband, they fit perfect. I wear a size XXL in most everything but I wish size XL were still in stock so I could exchange them.
2. My favorite kind of pocket, the hip zip, was one of the features these looked perfect on paper. But in reality, the hip zip pocket sits too far forward, so my phone rests exactly as it would if it were in a front pocket. Ideally, the hip zip pocket puts my phone exactly on the side of my hip, which alleviates it riding too low and bouncing throughout my Hikes, walks, runs etc.

Odd pockets
These shorts are great with one exception. The pockets hang out the bottom of the shorts. I guess I'll just sew them up a little bit

Worthwhile
As advertised. Comfortable and appear durable. All round shorts and they’re even attractive.

Comfy, Nice Athletic Shorts - But Fit Big in Waist
Comfy shorts with really deep pockets perfect for your phone. They fit pretty big so maybe order a size down in the waste.
