Black Diamond Sierra Shorts - Charcoal, Size L

Hot weather and rugged terrain can turn a great day outside into an uncomfortable grind. The Black Diamond Sierra Shorts solve that by combining breathable, four-way stretch fabric with a durable water-repellent finish and UPF 50+ sun protection, so you stay cool, dry, and shielded from the elements. Whether you're linking pitches at the crag, hiking a dusty trail, or just running errands around town, these shorts move with you and hold up to abrasion.

Who is it for

Built for active men who demand versatility from their gear. Climbers will appreciate the gusseted crotch and stretch fabric that never restricts high steps or heel hooks. Hikers get breathability and sun protection for long days on exposed trails. And the clean, understated look makes them equally at home for casual wear.

Tips

Pair these shorts with a lightweight baselayer and approach shoes for all-day comfort on the trail. For climbing sessions, the stretch fabric and gusseted crotch allow full range of motion without binding. When the weather turns, the DWR finish helps shrug off light rain, but for heavy downpours, consider a waterproof shell. To extend the life of the DWR coating, wash with a technical cleaner and reapply a spray-on DWR treatment as needed.
