The Patagonia Outdoor Everyday 4" Short - Women's is a mid rise short for the summer heat and vacation days. Step out into the sun and head into the woods for a hike, stroll the local markets, visit the boardwalk, all in the durable nylon and spandex double-weave fabric blend. Stretchy and comfortable for days in the sun, with an attached belt so they won't slip. The hand pockets are zippered and the drop-in cargo pockets close with a snap to prevent items from tumbling out.
