Patagonia Baggies Shorts -
This short's up for anything; even so, don't feel guilty if all you do is relax in it.
Stuff your towel and a good novel in your backpack and head to the beach in the Patagonia Women's Baggies Short. This classic piece has been around as a comfortable do-anything short since Patagonia's beginning. Mesh pockets and quick-dry nylon mean you won't stay wet for long if you decide to splash around in the surf. Patagonia designed the regular-fit Baggies Short with vertical pockets so they won't snag on paddles if you wear them river rafting. Since the short is so light and comfy, it works well for the occasional hike or trail run too.

Best travel and hiking shorts I have found!!!

They are a great mid length, not to short that your thighs rub and not to long that its hard to hike in. I have taken then all around the world, they are a bit stained but have held up amazingly. They are great in fresh and salt water, the salt hasn't damaged them and they haven't pilled/balled on the tush either! They dry really quickly so you can swim, whitewater raft, etc. in them and then continue on your hike without being uncomfortable. The elastic band is just tight enough so that they do not fall off or slip but not so tight that they dig in to you and make permanent marks!

New and improved Baggies! I'll admit at first I was a bit skeptical to see that the same old reliable pair of Patagonia Baggies shorts were not the same. There is a draw-cord at a now comfortably padded waist band that stays comfortable and dry (except for the weekend they just spent in the water doing a Wilderness Lifeguarding class). They were a good pair for that one pair of shorts you bring on a trip. I've been a Baggies wearer for over fifteen years now and I must say, I like the new design! Pockets have the mesh component to them to drain water, nice touch!

I love Patagonia Baggies, and have been wearing them for years. I am normally a 6/8 and a medium fits perfect. Not too loose, not tight at all. If I need to, I can also wear a size large. The large has a lot more room, and an obvious more loose fit, but I can get away with the next size up without looking ridiculous. :) Worth every penny. I have some from 98 that I still wear today.

I have worn PATAGONIA BAGGIES for all activities: running, exercise, white water, etc....
BUT, especially LOVE them for tennis! They are lightweight, non binding, AND the pockets each hold 3 - 4 balls for serve practice and warm-up. Love the patterns- they are so darned cute and the black makes a superb competition outfit... serious tourney uniform!! I have a drawer full as does my husband. They also last forever but I always MUST have the new prints & colors!

I love these shorts. They are super comfy and can be used for pretty much anything. I already have a pair of these in a different color that I bought the year before. These are about an inch longer than last years version but still totally fine. I'm going to use them on a 27 day hike in the Sierra Nevadas this summer. Perfect for a long hiking trip because they are super lightweight and dry super fast.

Baggies are a staple for me. I had one pair for 10+ years, split the back seam and sent them to Patagonia to repair - I was more than willing to pay for it - and they sent me a brand new pair!!! Love dealing with reliable companies like this!! The fabric in the newer shorts may not feel as durable as the older fabric, but I've had no issues with them. They really are great shorts!

Running in these would be my least favorite use for them, although it certainly can be done. Tennis, hiking, rafting, gardening, hanging out around town...These shorts are great for everything and look nicer than many other shorts. One word of caution - Patagonia does has changed the style of these. I happen to like the current style best as the elastic is looser and there is a more relaxed feel to the fabric.

I had two pair of these shorts for 15 years. The shorts never wore out, although the elastic in the waist finally did. I still wore them using the drawstring though. I finally decided to get some new ones, and the new style/cut is much improved over the old ones from the 90's. These are great for running, hiking, kayaking and other water sports, or just hanging out. Highly recommended.

Great all around

I see myself wearing these a lot during the summer. I bought for a backpacking trip and intend to get some great use. They fit well, a bit longer that I usually wear, but once I flip the waistband, they are perfect. They are baggie, as the name entails, so don't expect them to be form fitting. I love the color (gray/charcoal), great quality!
Leslie at Moosejaw on 04/14/2011
I read the reviews before buying theses shorts. They were very accurate. I wanted that one great pair of short that didn\'t stick to you when it is hot, you can wear in the water, on a hike, or for a nap. Multi-purpose is the name of the game for these shorts. I ordered on size larger so they are extra roomy and comfy!

Negative Reviews:

I have actually had several pairs of these shorts over the years because I get them for cheap through my work. They dry quickly, are durable, and are pretty comfortable. That being said, they are not a good material for running because the material is a little thick and stiff. I wear mine on the river, but only for paddle boating. They have front pockets that I have (many many times) caught my oar handles in the pocket when I'm pulling. I'm not that impressed with this Patagonia product, but it's a classic and if you can get it on sale, it's not terrible.

Granted I had really high hopes for these, i was really disappointed when I received them. Why exactly are they $50?? They don't seem like magical shorts or anything really special. The fabric seems like any other board short. The cut is not flattering, it's quite boxy. Not impressed!
