Maybe too sturdy for hiking

Mountain Khakis Alpine Utility Short - Men's

Rating for this product: 3 September 7, 2010

I like these shorts for about everything but hiking in hot weather. Unfortunately, that's what I had in mind when I bought them. They are very thick, so they don't breathe very well, take a long time to dry if they get wet, and weigh enough that you can feel them on you. The construction of the shorts really is excellent from a durability standpoint, but the heavy inseams chafed my inner thighs after a couple hours hiking in the heat in them. I prefer lighter shorts even if I sacrifice some durability.
