Engineered for high-output activity in warm climates, the Summit Shorts combine dual lightweight stretch fabrics that prioritize breathability, freedom of movement, and durability. The leg panels use an airy, fast-drying fabric that excels in heat and humidity, while the waistband features a slightly more structured stretch material for secure support and long-lasting shape retention. Both fabrics are made from Bio Nylon, a partially plant-based fiber that reduces reliance on fossil resources while maintaining exceptional performance characteristics. An articulated cut, gusseted crotch, and strategically placed seams further enhance mobility, making these shorts a technical choice for alpine hikes, scrambling, water travel, or active days around camp. Whether you're climbing a ladder on a via ferrata or navigating a river bend on a raft, the Summit Shorts are built to keep you comfortable and in control.
