Mountain Hardwear Trail Sender 7in Short
Go far and go fast. The Trail Sender™ Short is easy on the ounces and hard on burly trails.

Cargo-style pockets provide ample storage space for maps, devices, or whatever else you need at a moment's notice.

The shorts arrived today and they look and feel great. Supper lite weight and comfortable. Perfect for casual wear or a workout at the gym. And in a pinch you can use them for a quick dip in your favorite swimming hole. Had a delay in shipping but Back county kept me informed.

Disappointing New Generation
I've been a huge fan of the Trail Sender series for the past few years, and it is a bit disappointing to see MHW move away from what I've considered one of the best shorts out there. Increasing the inseam, using thinner polyester materials, and adjusting pockets to be less seamless have moved an iconic shorts more towards the rest of the lineup. While these shorts fit well and still are attractive, they no longer feel like the fashion-forward, take-anywhere shorts. What I once could take mountain biking, to the beach, to a nice outdoor dinner is no longer. These pants have become a roleplayer when they once were stars.

So light and breathable, it's almost like wearing nothing
These have become my go-to shorts since I got a pair late in the winter. They're so light-weight, so breathable and fit well under a harness. Feeling like I need to order about 6 more pair in case they all get bought up!

Weird fit, poor quality
Not even close to the same quality as previous versions. Not worth the buy.

If you're going to completely change something...
Then call it by a different name. The 2024 version of the "Trail Sender short" is 180 degrees from the previous offering, which was a well built, excellent fitting pair of shorts that could go a day on the trails to a nice restaurant date night without effort. The 2024 version is...nothing like that. Different cut, different silhouette, different fit = different short.
