Why We Like The Wadi Rum Short

The Outdoor Research Men's Wadi Rum Shorts segue seamlessly from mornings at the crag to lunch downtown with our buddies. These versatile shorts feature a durable and abrasion-resistant Cordura construction that won't get torn up on the wall, and the cotton blend fabric feels soft and lightweight against our skin on hot summer days.

Solid Shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like all OR clothing, they're well made and have held up well. 4 out of 5 due to the inseam being on the snug side, but overall I'd recommend the shorts!

Wadi Rum Shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had a hard time finding shorts in Slim Fit and not totally synthetic- these were the perfect fit so to speak. A blend of cordura nylon, cotton and spandex makes a great rugged fabric for just about any outdoor activity or wearing casually. It's super comfortable and gets better with each washing, and the fit is true to size.

great hiking shorts!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wore these shorts for the first time on a hiking trip to the Minam River in Eastern Oregon and they performed admirably.

New Favorite shorts

These shorts are simple and light. Fabric is great, slight stretch, slight tooth. Breathable and cotton feeling. Fit is perfect. Great blue color. Pockets are not very deep on front, extra deep in back. This makes any back pocket cargo like a wallet float kind of low at top of leg -this placement works better than expected. Style of cut is slightly modern- crisp angles. There is a drawstring for extra security if you don't use a belt. They almost feel as light as board shorts yet are real cloth shorts with good pockets. No bulk. Presentable anywhere. Tough. I keep using them instead of others. Comfortable, basic and cool. New favorites!

Higgins!!

Thomas Magnum fan here-love these! Been using them with liners to bike around town. Own two pairs! I prefer the ones with thigh pocket for my smaller cellphone. Both are so comfortable and are holding up well. I look forward to putting them on, actually.
