Summer-Ready Shorts and Pants That Will Keep You Cool All Season Long

Perfect for those summertime hiking adventures, the Trekkie North Short ($59) features lightweight two-way stretch fabric for added comfort and mobility. Plus, the Trekkie fabric is also sweat-wicking and fast drying to pull sweat away from the skin, so that it dries faster as you stay active.

Another great option for the trail seeker is the Trekkie Straight Crop Pant ($89). With similar properties as the shorts version, this longer crop is ideal for those wanting a bit more coverage. But don't think more fabric equals less mobility; this pant is made from high-performance recycled nylon that moves with you.

Still can't decide? Get the best of both worlds with the Trekkie Convertible Hike Pant ($139), which converts into three options: a straight leg pant, a crop pant, or shorts. With adjustable bungee cords at the ankles and a drawstring waist, this pant is all about comfort during your favorite summer activities.

The Ultimate Stash Short ($69) is a great option for the person who wants a go-to bottom for biking, running, hiking, workout classes, and any ol' summer activity. These compression shorts are breathable, allowing for airflow and a next-to-skin feel. Plus, they're made from recycled polyester, a material sourced from post-consumer plastic bottles.

For another daily do-it-all, look to the Trekkie North Jogger ($89). This lightweight jogger is made from recycled nylon and spandex for extra stretch. What's more, it features a comfortable knit waistband and three zip pockets for added practicality.

While not quite a short, we're still counting the Trekkie Skort ($69) as part of our summer bottom essentials. This skort can take on everything from running to hiking to lounging thanks to its quick-drying, breathable recycled nylon. We're also giving this piece top marks for being UPF 50+.

The Trekkie Bermuda 2.0 ($59) may look like your standard preppy Bermuda short, but it's built to perform. This ultra-comfortable and breathable short features a seersucker texture without the added weight. Reach for this for hiking, golf, walking, and more.

Perhaps you prefer a full-length pant. In that case, our pick is the Nolita Wide Leg Pant ($98) for the oversize construction, flattering Sculptek rib waistband, and silky Featherweight Stretch™ fabric made with recycled polyester.
