Reviews

The fit and comfort of

"The fit and comfort of these shorts are spot on! Unfortunately though that comfort comes with a drawback. Because the material is so thin and breathable (huge pro) the stitching and material durability is lacking. I’ve had these shorts for maybe 2 weeks and there are visible signs where the stitches have torn."

— Colin L. (3/5)

Git-R-Done

"Seems very presumptuous to default my selection to 5 stars. That said, Kuiu does seem pay attention to details. Your shorts & pants meet the criteria of an experienced outdoorsman: durability/reliability, functionality, & aesthetics (all three equally important). Job well done. I will recommend to others who spend their time outside."

— Rick A. (5/5)

Tiburon 7 inch short

"I am a full time offshore sportfishing captain , for the last 3 years I have worn these shorts daily. I put these shorts and pants through the test. The 7 inch inseams are perfect for day to day, classic look and pair well with a polo style shirt or you can pair it with the Gila LS hoodie for the ultimate offshore comfort and sun protection. I can’t say enough for these pants and the rest of my KUIU gear that I wear everyday. Fit is true to size . Best hot weather short in the industry in my experience and I’ve worn them all."

— Matthew C. (5/5)

Showing the same pocket wear as my Kutana shorts

"I bought these Tiburon shorts for $99 in 2025. After only about a year of normal use, they are showing noticeable wear in the same front pocket area where my Kutana shorts have also failed. The only item routinely carried there is my cell phone. Given the price and KUIU’s reputation for durable technical clothing, I expected much better wear resistance and longevity. KUIU denied my warranty claim as “abrasion” and referred me to a paid repair service."

1st pair of Kuiu!

"Fantastic shirts. Great quality and fit. Should’ve bought a couple more at that time"

— Dennis B. (5/5)

Tiburon hiking pants are awesome.

"This pair of Tiburon pants is the most beautifully finished article of clothing, I have ever owned. All the pockets and belt loops are perfec...that is why I was really surprised to see the fly zipper was so ridiculously short it was difficult to go to the toilet. Why is this ?"

— Michael W. (4/5)

To cold for shorts in

"To cold for shorts in Michigan right now. Did try them on, fit great and looked great."

— Nick N. (5/5)

Another success

"Love the 10” Tiburon i now have 6 pairs so great living in Arizona with technical fabric.."

— Raymond E. (5/5)

Tight

"Not for men with butts. There was no room in the crotch area. They look and feel really nice and are a great length and fit on the legs but not comfortable up top."

— Crystal T. (2/5)

Best shorts I have ever owned

"Most comfortable shorts I own. Breathes extremely well in hot weather."

— Gerald H. (5/5)
