Alpinus Askja Men's Quick-Dry Hiking Shorts Grey Size M

Men's hiking shorts built for warm-weather trails, the Alpinus Askja delivers rapid moisture management and dependable sun protection in a lightweight, stretch-woven package. A DWR finish sheds light rain and trail splatter, while the elastic waist with drawcord keeps the fit secure over long distances.

Advantages

The four-way stretch fabric—90% polyamide, 10% elastane—moves with you on scrambles and high steps without binding. Quick-dry technology pulls sweat away from the skin and dries in minutes, so you stay comfortable from ridgeline to valley floor. UPF 30+ blocks harmful UV rays during exposed sections, and the DWR coating helps shrug off morning dew and unexpected drizzle. Zippered back pocket secures a key or energy gel, while two open side pockets keep a map or phone within reach.

Suitable for

• Day hikes and multi-day trekking in spring and summer
• Travel and urban exploration in hot climates
