If these shorts were two inches longer, they would be perfect. Light and stretchy but durable fabric, excellent deep pockets, genius waist adjustment that adds no bulk, and cool zipperless fly. Slim fitting, so probably not a good choice for pear or curvy shapes. The small fits me just right (5'6", 116 lbs). More colors would be nice. I actually prefer the regular Trail shorts, which are longer but otherwise have similar features as the Trail Cargo shorts and slightly (very slightly) heavier fabric.
