Traveling the globe in search of the best materials for their clothing and gear, Patagonia leads the way with their innovative fabrics and technologies. Quality and performance are top priority with Patagonia. With every garment made by them comes reassurance that it will not only be long lasting, but strong as well.

Patagonia's values reflect those of a business that started as a band of climbers and surfers who wanted to stay out as long as they can, doing what they love, no matter the weather. Patagonia's design approach to every product, from technical shells for snow and ice, to moisture-wicking underclothes, to everyday clothes, demonstrates a functional bias toward simplicity and utility. Quality is impeccable, and the guarantee lifelong.

Patagonia's love of wild and beautiful places demands participation in the fight to save them and to help reverse the steep decline in the overall environmental health of the planet. They use organic cotton; most polyester is recycled. They give moral support - and 1% of sales, $25 million to date - to hundreds of grassroots environmental groups in the U.S., Europe and Japan.

These shorts are more like underwear! The fabric is incredibly thin. I would not wear these out in public at all. The crotch is also too narrow. You'd need a Brazilian just to wear these and even then you'd probably flash someone. I ordered an XS and I normally wear a size 0/2 so I think they are true to size. However, I am absolutely returning these. If you want something this thin just spend less money on boy shorts underwear at Target.

I love these shorts. Looks flattering on anybody. But think they run a bit big. Normally wear a medium but could be a small. I currently wear a size 8. Hip size 40. Mediums are fine but could have them more fitted. Even though they are underwear I can run out to my mailbox and don't look like I'm in my underwear. Wicks away moisture great.

A little contradiction to the other review. I'm size 2 and XS was perfect. I was hoping to wear it for running with my dog. But maybe because of the color (pink) my boyfriend swears it looks like an underwear and doesn't let me go outside with it. I still kept it because it's so comfortable to wear around the house anyway.

Weightless, comfortable, and easy to care for. I love boy shorts for their comfort and lack of lines but good ones that aren't too thick or don't ride up are hard to find. These are awesome!
