cute and comfy!
complimentary from prana! these shorts are a new staple for me! they have the perfect amount of stretch, protect from the sun, and fit true to size (but also has waist adjustments as well for the perfect fit) the sandbar color also makes it so easy to wear casually or on a hike!

Not very durable
I really love the way these shorts fit and look but I’m not sure how durable they are for actual outdoor wear. I just got them today and within two hours of wearing them a loose thread in the back got stuck on my bracelet and now there is a giant seam line running down the back of the shorts like when stockings get a run. I’m bummed because I got these for a hiking trip in a few days and I don’t have time to return them so I guess I will just wear them till a hole forms

Thanks so much for sharing your experience—we’re glad you love the fit and look of the shorts! We're sorry to hear about the snag. While the Stretch Zion fabric is built for durability, threads can occasionally catch on jewelry or gear. We’ll definitely pass this along to the right teams for product fine-tuning. Your feedback helps us improve, and we truly appreciate it. Thanks again from your friends at prAna!

Not Curvy Athletic Thigh Friendly
The shorts fit beautifully in my hips and thighs, I love the adjustable waist. My issue is that if you have even remotely athletic thighs, they will fit snugly around them. In the photos it appears that they will have some space around the thigh area, but when I put them on they are basically biker shorts. Wish Prana would take this into account. If they were looser around the thighs, these shorts would be perfection. Usual size: 8/10 Ordered: 8 Height: 5’9 Weight: 180

Love
Love these! Great length and super cute. Would highly recommend, but would size up. The shorts do not follow the same sizing as the pants.

Perfect short!
gifted by prAna such a good fit!! These shorts are stretchy enough and structured all at once. Love the detail of the zippered pockets. The length is long enough to be comfortable but not too long so they are stylish! Highly recommend for any outdoor adventure.

Love my shorts!
The pants are a perfect fit, although tight at the waist. They are cute and crisp looking and fun to wear!

fits perfect
the cut and fit of these shorts are super flattering. I don't have a slim body, I always feel the need to hide my tummy. These shorts are very flattering and comfortable. This is my second pair.
