Designed to maximize range of motion, the lightweight and breathable Arcteryx women's Rampart Long Shorts are ideal for an array of climbing and hiking. Styled with a flare for urban living, these shorts are loaded with technical features; such as articulated seat and legs, gusseted crotch, and breathable and quick drying fabric. With a low rise and wider waist band design, a front fly with two snaps and belt loops, two pleated cargo pockets with fixed flap, two front patch pockets, and two rear patch pockets round out the look. An embroidered bird logo on right cargo pocket gives added detail.
Happy with purchase
After reading the great reviews, I bought the shorts just to rack around in with my toddler. They are light weight, have an easy to care for fabric and they are comfortable. I go between a size 6 & 8 but ended up buying them in an 8 and they fit perfectly. I think they may run a bit on the small side.
Love these shorts!
The fabric and style are perfect for active wear. I loved them so much, I have purchased several because I wear them almost daily. Top notch quality; I always get compliments. Only wish they came in black, too.
Perfect for almost any Summer activity
I loved these shorts so much I now have 4 pairs in three colors. Originally, I bought a pair for hiking in New Zealand. I couldn't have asked for a better pair of shorts. Wore them constantly. They are ultra-comfortable, lightweight, cool, easy to keep clean, easy to wash out, and dry quickly. And they're long enough to keep your knees from getting burnt. To top it all off, they're flattering. They're fully functional for strenuous activity but look cute and kind of refined for walking around town worn with a nice top and stylish, low-heeled sandals. I constantly get complements from trekkers admiring the technical features and from "style mavins". Thanks. So glad you carried them.(Wish they made these as long pants for cooler days.)
