hiking sorted

Very happy with the active shorts, they fit very well (of course) & are very light weight. I like that there are 5 pockets & I am even happier that they are not netting pockets which are found on so many other brands of active shorts (a deal breaker for me). The drawstring is another added bonus I like for hiking shorts. I would happily hike in the everyday shorts but the active shorts feel purpose made.

Sporty and light

I loved the standard Frankster shorts and wanted to try the Actives to see the difference. They are lighter and "sporty" but still a good-looking and feeling product.

Not for thicker legs.

Tried both XL and XXL both were fine around the waist but neither had enough room for legs. Quality of the shorts themselves seem great. If you don’t skip leg day you might want to think about skipping these shorts.
