Whether you're having a soak in a top-secret hot spring in some snowy canyon or suiting up for a day of surfing somewhere warm and sunny, the Barely Baggies Shorts have you covered. Their Supplex fabric sheds moisture quick and dries in a flash. Thanks to the elastic, adjustable waist you can rest assured that these shorts will stay put after you get tossed by a big wave or slip from the hot spring to retrieve another beverage stashed in the nearby snow.

I've hiked in these, used them for swimming shorts, and worn them around town. They can do anything. I love that the pocket has a loop so you can clip in your keys when you're on an adventure.

I bought a pair of the mens version of these shorts in the summer of 2017, since then I haven't looked back with shorts. From playing soccer to the gym, to just casually lounging around I highly recommend these shorts. Recently bought my girlfriend a few pairs of the women's version of these shorts and she has been loving them for running! super light weight and the fit is superb.

I don’t normally like my shorts baggie but I decided to try a pair because I loved the pretty material used in these and I fell in I love. The 2 1/2 inseam is perfect! They are so comfortable and keep me cool here in the South Florida summer heat. I now own several pairs. I use them for working out, walking and everyday living! :)

These shorts are great. I use them all the time and am currently using them on a backpacking trip in Colorado. They dry fast and don’t smell like running shorts do. (You know what I’m talking about.) As far as sizing goes, They’re a bit loose in the waist for me and I wish they rode a bit higher on the waist like the regular baggies do, but until they come out with a high/mid waisted barely baggies, these will be my go to outdoor activity shorts. I usually wear a size small in leggings and I have a medium in smartwool leggings. I have a 28” waist and 39” hips. Hope that helps!

These shorts are good for hikes, yard work, volleyball, and whatever else. They are a little poofy at first but after some wear and a wash the fabric mellows out. I wish the waist was a little bit higher, but the waistband is wide enough so they are still comfortable around the stomach.

These are the best. I have them in multiple colors. Fit and style and material is the best summertime play short. I love the length of the barely baggies because it shows off more of my white legs to get a little sun!

I ordered both a small and medium to compare fit. I'm usually a size 6 in shorts/pants with muscular legs. I ended up keeping the small because the medium was too loose and baggy. I just wore them on vacation to the Galapagos where we would sometimes snorkel right after hiking and they worked great. They ride up a little bit when sitting, but I feel like most shorts do that. They are a little on the expensive side, I wish I was able to find my size on sale.

I'm 5'4, 130lbs and I ordered the Medium. They were shorter than I was expecting and the material was MUCH different than I had hoped for. The shorts were stiff and a bit noisy.

I wear these shorts every day that I possibly can in the summer. This summer I took mine on a week long vacation to Grand Cayman and they held up great and I got lots of compliemnts. I also took them on a 6 day river trip down Cataract Canyon and could not stop raving about my shorts the whole time. They fit great, not too loose and not too tight. Length was perfect for my short legs, without being too short of shorts. Would reccomend for anyone looking for a comfortable pair of shorts that will last years.

I love my baggies! These shorts are great for hiking, water activities, lounging around or literally anything you can think off. They're comfortable and durable. I also love the large selection of colors/patterns that are available. I'll definitely be purchasing another pair soon.

I love these shorts! They're the perfect length, and they are my go-to summer short, especially for water since they act like a board short. I usually wear a small but I sized up to a medium for a slightly looser fit. They don't have any stretch and I wanted extra movement. All the colors are great!

I'm 5'3 / 130 lbs and ordered a Small. The shorts fit pretty well and were super cute, but hit pretty low in the waist and seemed to ride up a little in the back. While I feel Small was the correct size (Medium was too big in store), I'm not sure the fit was great for my body type.

I am 5'7", 120-125 pounds and I got a small. I think they look really cute, and they are totally comfortable for walking around, but they are not good for exercise. I did a 30 minute workout in them and they rode up my crotch the entire time. A medium might be better for me for a workout short. I know they aren't meant to be a workout short specifically, but they should be able to handle some lunges and squats like you may have on a outdoor adventure. They ride up when seated, too. Even for Patagonia, I think they are overpriced for what they are, but I still think they look great for a basic short.

Got these for my wife and she loves them. Comfortable, short enough for her (she’s 5’2 and has trouble with most hiking shorts), and fun colors.
