Why We Like The Outdoor Research Ferrosi 7in Short
On both the approach and the send, the Outdoor Research Ferrosi 7in Short keeps us light and free. The stretchy material gives our hips full range for high steps, stems, and drop knees, as it wicks away moisture and dries off quick to keep us cool. With a soft lining and a low-profile internal drawcord, the waist sits comfortably under our pack or harness, while the 7-inch inseam minimizes chafe on long hikes and gives a comfy barrier between our skin and our harness's leg loops.

I just love these and the pants
These shorts and the pants of the same style are just perfect, what else can I say? Nice pockets and the fit is just right for me.

Fit great, love for long hikes and wearing in town. Easy to clean and dry fast. Excellent pockets. I do need to wear a belt.

Disappointed
Not like the older Ferrosi fit. If you like a looser fit then go up a size. I can’t stand anything that feels too tight. The waist seems higher and they tend to ride up in the crotch. My older pairs are from 2018 and I love them!

These shorts are flattering, comfortable and long enough to make me feel confident when recreating outdoors. They are wrinkle resistant and lightweight. I absolutely love them and got them in two colors!

Incredibly comfortable, I love the longer inseam. I've worn hiking multiple times and never experience any chaffing. Also very light and breathable material but still feels durable.

Comfortable and the perfect length
I recently purchased a pair of ferrosi shorts, 7" length. I'm 5'4 and I think the length is great. They are come to a couple of inches above my knee (long enough that there is no inner thigh chaffing) and the shorts aren't too tight in the leg opening (I'm more curvy vs slim in the thigh). I haven't had a chance to use them heavily yet-will update if I see the need, but expect that they will be great based on what I've seen so far.

Adventure in comfort and style
These shorts are the best travel / adventure shorts! Hiking, biking, and even trail running in a pinch. These shorts are durable and fashionable. Like other Ferrosi collection- they dry quick too
