🩳 Columbia Men's Permit II Shorts Review

Finally a pair of shorts that don't hit my knees, I'm 57 years old (34 inch waist and almost 6 feet tall) so a size 34 fits me perfectly. I wear shorts most of my life. I wore surf bags or shorts as I only dived and surfing was for work surfing was for fun. I liked them in the 80's when there were 6-7 stitches, then longer ones became fashionable. i hated her It's like old school shorts, decent pockets, quick drying, perfect length. I'm hoping to hold out until the shorts trend takes off, but…

I love Columbia products and have used them camping and hiking with my family. I bought a couple of these for summer trips to European cities, a very different use case than camping etc. Initially I need to take my phone and wallet with me and I find it more convenient to carry them in the front pockets of my shorts/trousers rather than my backpack or my shoulder bag. Columbia has urban summer walking shorts made out of slightly heavier material (for phone and wallet) that I don't know about…

I ordered the first pair for my husband to try on and he liked them so much I had to order two more pairs before he went on a business trip to Cuba. These blacks are significantly more expensive than other colors of the same style etc but on a different page but my normally cheap skate husband was willing to pay the difference and all in black. I will never understand men! Those shorter legs are hard to find in modern styles, but he hates long shorts. Follow the picture. The first pair was 36…

I bought my first pair of Columbia shoes from a thrift store and I love them. I was very pleased to find that although they appear to be somewhat out of the current style, they are still available in Colombia, and at a very fair price I think (they were on sale). The design is good, functional and with a zipper. Pockets including cargo style leg pockets which I LOVE. I keep my phone in there and it fits without poking my groin or bouncing on the edge to fall out of my pocket. The waist has a…

Great shorts for outdoor activities. These shorts perform the same function as athletic shorts while still looking professional. I use them as shorts for hiking. They are good for the following reasons: 1) Not too long (with a 6 inch stride) - they don't get in the way on long strides/climbs 2) Very thin - they are very durable but weigh next to nothing 3) Synthetic - dries in few minutes 4) Elastic waistband - I don't need a belt 5) Comes in black - nobody can see how dirty it gets on long…

I know they're in the Columbia fishing line but these are great hiking shorts. I walk about 10 miles a day and wanted a pair of lightweight, quick drying tech shorts that aren't too long so I bought the 6 inch version. (Long 9- or 10-inch shorts are really uncomfortable when walking long distances.) Most of the time I'm more comfortable in denim shorts, but they get wet with sweat when I walk and take a long time to dry. This is exactly what I was looking for. They are light and comfortable, do

The material is thin but I hope it is durable. The waist fit is good but a bit loose, the narrow belt holds, the wider one doesn't fit through the loops. I'm 5ft 9" and the 6" inseam still feels a bit long when standing, but when I'm sitting in a chair it stretches to mid-thigh, which works for me. An 8 inch inseam lowers it close to the knee when walking. These shorts are not tight around the buttocks and the leg opening is huge. I can almost unbutton them like a skirt. But it's good for…
