Pudolla Men’s Hiking Cargo Shorts Quick Dry Outdoor Travel Shorts for Men with Multi Pocket for Fishing Camping Casual

Light as gym shorts but I am not embarrassed to wear them in public
These are a really good pair of shorts. Especially for warm weather. I do a lot of walking in the neighborhood. I sweat, they dry out. They have pockets AND belt loops; Thank you! Most shorts like this, with elastic waistbands can’t actually hold anything in the pockets without them slipping below your butt. I can add a belt if needed.The button is actually a metal button much like that found on older bluejeans. It stays fastened!They are lightweight, so I don’t expect them to have a long life if in a rugged environment. For my purposes, they are just right. More structured than gym shorts — I can wear them as daily wear — or just wear them at the gym. So far, they are a 5 star.

Nice shorts but weak elastic waist
These are lightweight, very comfortable shorts that I would wear for any outdoor activity such as hiking or running as well as lounging around the house in. The material is a stretchy nylon/spandex combo but it seems pretty rugged although if hiking and took a tumble, I think traditional cotton shorts are going to protect you from abrasions much better. I like the fact that it ahs three zippered pockets and the front pockets while deep enough to carry your phone and other items don’t extend all the way to the bottom of the shorts so that carried items are thumping against your legs when walking.That brings me to the weakness of the shorts and what is preventing me from giving it four stars. The waistline is all elastic except for the front side and it is a very weak elastic, much like wearing pajamas or a hospital johnny. My waistline is a 33-34″ and the medium size is certainly big enough and in fact, I can pull the front of the shorts, several inches away from my waist. Except for perhaps lounging around the house, this makes wearing a belt a necessity as the shorts will have a tendency to slip down when moving around with objects in the pocket. Would be much better if the waistline only contained a small area of a stronger elastic material or given the stretchy nature of the material itself, perhaps none would be required.

Encourages superhuman efforts in pickleball
Since we old folks in Georgia are irrelevant to most everything except spending on healthcare and playing pickleball, I decided to try yet one more pair of shorts for The Game hoping to find meaning and purpose. I chose the Pudolla hiking shorts. Indeed, I am glad I did.So, what do I need for pickleball? Well, I need a non-constricting fit for my… hmmm… various regions so I can get down (“compress”) for the ball. I need a wicking material because we old folks sweat (but don’t like to show the world, being genteel about our…hmm…regions). I need pockets because of course we old folks need to carry pretty much everything we carried before we retired; you never know when you will need a slide rule on the court. I need to look suave and debonair, as they say, because we gaze upon each other from the sidelines, as if back in high school. Never too old for fantasy or envy. I need belt loops and elastic because, well, I have a bit of pear shape as some older folks do. And I need a color or two that will faze my opponents and at the same time exhort my partners and encourage me to exert my utmost. (I know. Just liked the sound of the verbs). I chose Superman Blue for my Pudollas, by the way. Obviously.I found everything I needed – everything YOU will need – in these Pudolla cargo shorts. Just about perfect for pickleball ‘neath the Georgia sun. Thank you, Pudolla family. Just what the stylish gomer wears to dink thoughtfully.Added almost a month later:Well, I now own 3 pairs of these shorts, and I just ordered a fourth. Yes, like them that much. Yes, they wash great (although I do hang-dry them, not that I know why). They maintain their shape and look through washes, sweat, sunlight, activity, AND the admiring – even envious – stares of my pickleball group. But it is so bloody hot down South, and these shorts are so comfortable, that I bought extra pairs to wear all the time. I don’t like that the price changes every so often: sometimes I feel like a chump when I paid more, and sometimes I feel like a great bargain hunter (like today) when the price dropped for a color I wanted. Maybe I should take these prices as a metaphor for impermanence? Should we be Stoics about our shorts?

Very comfortable
Bought these shorts again for my husband because he said he likes them very much. Very light and very comfortable especially during summer. He wears them all the time.
