短裤

The first pair of shorts we made—way back in the ’70s—were so sturdy they “stood up” on their own, and we named them Stand Up® Shorts. Sewn from upholstery-grade canvas and designed with a double-fabric seat, these cotton shorts took time to break in, but the result was a sweet pair to last forever. Built tough for climbing, hiking and bouldering, they were the original athletic shorts. Today, Patagonia makes durable Stand Up Shorts in a range of colors (including Mojave Khaki for khaki shorts and chino shorts fans), but we use tough organic cotton canvas that breaks in easily.

Since we invented Stand Up Shorts, we’ve added shorts for running, biking and surfing, plus the moments in between. Try our boardshorts, running shorts, bike shorts, or our all-around active shorts that can go from the workshop to the water. Our organic cotton shorts for are built for daily wear, and our compression shorts are used as liner shorts under bike shorts. If you have cargo, we have cargo shorts.

When it comes to shorts, little things add up to all-day comfort and performance. That’s as true of our running shorts and bike shorts as it is for our cargo shorts and linen shorts. Take, for example, the pockets on our Strider Pro trail running shorts; they’re positioned for carrying comfort and to reduce bounce. Our Dirt Roamer shorts (mountain bike shorts available in men’s & women's styles) have welded seams to increase stretch and reduce chafing, plus an integrated waistbelt for a just-right fit. Hydrolock Boardshorts, one of our men’s boardshorts, have a unique locking waistband with a textured drawcord to prevent slipping.

The best athletic shorts for are thoughtfully designed and durably made, and our sports shorts for keep pace during long days in the water, on the trail and on the road. Breathable, durable and comfortable fabrics are chosen for the intended use, whether that’s fast dry times and no-slip waistbands on our boardshorts, quick-wicking fabric for our running shorts, lifetime-tough Baggies’ fabric (our tried-and-true nylon shorts) or stretchy, durable fabric for our cycling shorts. Bottom line: Whether you’re trying to run fast, hike a multiday route or enjoy the epic family beach trip, we’ve got your shorts.
