Reviews

Love the material

"I appreciate the lightweight material these shorts are made of. They are very comfortable with a little bit of stretch, slightly slimmer leg then some men's shorts but not to slim. I ordered one waist size bigger than my normal pants size and they fit perfect. (Like the attack pants) I would definitely recommend them."

— Patrick S. (5/5)

Switchback shorts

"Shorts fit great, look great. Rear pockets are large and feel a little loose for retaining my wallet."

— Jeffrey A. (5/5)

Great style and comfort

"My husband loves these shorts. He walks every day and these are the most comfortable and look great."

— Arlene H. (5/5)

Best Shorts Available!

"I was hesitant about ordering the Switchback shorts, but was tired of getting cheap thin material shorts that don’t last or fit correctly. Now I wish I would have ordered these years ago! The fit & durability is top notch! The first time my wife seen them on was like, “I love your shorts and where did you find them?) I am getting ready to order two more pairs! Thanks KUIU for a BadAss and Awesome pair of shorts! ⚡️Dennis⚡️"

Very nice shorts. My only

"Very nice shorts. My only complaint is the 12” inseam shorts are more like an 11” inseam."

— Eric B. (4/5)

Great Shorts

"Really like these Shorts. Good length & fit. Material works perfectly for Summer with the humidity in the East. The Deeper front pockets work well. Only wish one of the rear Pockets was Zippered"

— Robert K. (5/5)

Return or exchange

"The material did not hold up; after two days there was a manufacturing defect. Can I exchange? Can't find my order number."

— Mark W. (1/5)

10 inch shorts
