“These are my favorite shorts. They hold up well in the climbing gym and local crag. The magnets in the pockets are an awesome feature that makes sure things stay in the pockets without pesky zippers or buttons to deal with. No matter what activity I'm doing these shorts are excellent.”
“Bommer 2.0 7" Shorts - excellent with one small caution. Often running is about more than just the run. Unless I’m at the track, every run needs to carry key and phone. Sometimes add to that a spine wallet, hotel key card, fig bars, and crushable cup. Need space to stow a gossamer shell when it warms during a long run. The Bommer handles all of this well and without bouncing around. The 7” length is perfect, short enough to look runnerish and long enough to mostly cover my cyclist tan line. These work well under a hip belt hiking too. Now for the caution - don’t put hotel and credit cards in the front outer shell slash pockets. I had the magnets ruin a hotel card. Should be OK putting cards in the back pockets. Very much reco these shorts otherwise.”
“have owned 2 pairs of these shorts, fit runs small however overall comfort has been great, only issue has been the magnets, one pair had one break through the seam, on the other pair the magnet simply disappears within the seam, have stitched one back on with cloth covering overlay to keep in place, not sure will repair the other since would require cutting into the pocket, so ..... it has been over a yr so not concerned about any warranty......”

“I love the fit and design of these shorts but the magnets have ripped from the pockets in less than 5 washes! Somewhat disappointing, the magnet feature is pretty slick, Shame the execution wasn’t great!”

“I just got a pair of these. I was looking at similar shorts from a different brand but found these at the local REI. They are awesome. I’ll be buying more soon.
I like that they are thin, but not see through thin. The inner lining is very comfortable.
Also they seem true to size. I wear a 34 size pants, got a large and it fits perfect.”
