Berghaus Ortler Shorts

The Berghaus Ortler shorts are great for long days in warmer weather. The fabric is tough but breathable. 

Berghaus says: 

We’ve combined a great fabric with carefully considered features in these very breathable and comfortable shorts for warm weather walks.

Let’s face it, you don’t want to worry about your shorts when striding out on a summer hike and once you put these on, you can focus on the trail. Just like the Ortler Pants, we've used a fabric that’s fast drying, tough, breathable and stretchy – that translates into sustained performance and comfort during long, warm hikes. Our shorts have all of the features that you need, from plenty of pockets and handy belt loops, to thigh vents. So, you can forget about what’s on your legs and concentrate on putting one foot in front of the other.

We're working out what we think about Berghaus's Ortler Shorts, we'll add our comments here in due course.
