Customer Reviews Columbia Sandy River™ Short

Wore these shorts on an excursion in Aruba that had us getting in and out of water. These shorts were perfect! They dried quickly and were very comfortable, wet or dry. Several people asked me what kind they were and were jealous at how easy they dried compared to what they were wearing. Can't wait to buy more of them!

I have purchased several of these shorts as they are just wonderful for travel (light weight, wash and dry quickly), great for yard work (stretch and dry quickly in hot weather) and fit perfectly for what I do. I am 5 foot, 101 pounds and purchased an XS. They are comfortable on me as I like my shorts to be a little loose.

These shorts are comfortable and dry out easily, making them ideal for water sports, the beach, hiking or travel (i.e. washing in the sink). They're a little shorter this season than in the past - about 1".

I have worn these shorts for years on various outdoor trips and jobs and they still hold strong! Definitely worth the money.

I am very happy with my recent women's Sandy River Short purchase. This is a versatile item that can be worn as casual, sporty shorts, or as beach shorts with a bathing suit. The pockets are roomy and can hold a key ring or small coin purse. I like the variety of colors and will probably order another pair.

The Sandy River Shorts are very comfortable, light weight and dry fast. They are great for the summer weather and look great after swimming.

Love these shorts. They look good, feel good and wear fantastic. They are great for hiking or for just around the house. I highly recommend these shorts to anyone looking for comfort and durability.

I bought these shorts to go on a sailing trip. They fit nicely and dry quickly as I used them to as swim shorts as well. I bought a size up from what I normally do and they fit nicely.

Have previously ordered 3 other colors and love them so much that I ordered 2 more. Love all the color selections and they are so comfortable.

My teenage daughter has a hard time finding shorts that look appropriate and fit well due to her long legs. These are perfect. She can wear to school and work. She loves them.

They fit just great and love that you can wear for so many different reasons. All around my favorite shorts now!!

These shorts were just what I was looking for. Being 23 I don't want shorts that show everything, but I also don't want granny shorts. These were that perfect length! Very appropriate and the feel of them is amazing! I got soaking wet the other day and they dried within minutes! Love the additional pockets as well.

These shorts are awesome. I love the zipper pocket on the back. They dry really fast and work for multiple occasions! The only thing I would change is the elastic in the waistband, I wish it was more stretchy

Love these .....I work outside all day and these shirts are very comfortable . Very light weight and super easy to wash . Hang them on the line and they dry in minutes!

this product is very light. Great for Miami weather

Finally a pair of shorts that aren't too long or too short. They are perfect for everything from running, workouts, hiking, gardening, running errands, etc. They are lightweight and dry quickly. I already ordered 2 more pairs. I only wish that there were more color choices! Thanks Columbia!

Im a college student and outdoor enthusiast and theses shorts are perfect for in the classroom or on the trails. The fabric and fit are extremely comfortable and they don't look like "granny shorts" at all. They dry quickly and wrinkle little to not at all. If I had the money (unfortunately I have to eat), I'd buy a pair in every color. And maybe then i'd double up just in case the first pair got dirty. I absolutely love these shorts and think EVERYONE should have a pair. Way to go Columbia, another great product!

These are truly some of my most favorite pair of shorts. I am a very athletically built lady. I am 5'3 125/130 and wear a small. I run, hike, cross fit, play tennis, explore, and swim- and these shorts are perfect for ALL. The 2 pockets in the front are great for any quick access, and then one zipper back pocket for securing anything. I have tried multiple comparable brands (that cost way more) with their version of this short and nothing fits my curves (butt & thighs) as great as these.

Love my shorts only problem I didn't order every color before they sold out my size

I got a pair of these shorts years ago to go to a waterpark with my kids. Loved them. They fit well, wash well, dry quickly (I just hang to dry after washing). Great for exercising, running errands, or just hanging around. Just got another pair online in a different color. I would buy more if you had my size (M).

These shorts are so comfortable, light weight and have room to move. Perfect for a hot climate. I have washed them 4 or 5 times already and they come out like new.

I love these cypress colored shorts. They are comfortable to walk in, lightweight and great to wear while doing errands. I have black, beige and royal blue cargo shorts from Columbia and now cypress Sandy River Shorts.

Quick dry and comfortable.

These Sandy River Shorts are so nice and cool for hot summer weather. They dry very quickly, too! I have these in many colors.
