Hiking SHORTS Recs: 5’9” Curvy, Athletic Body Type👇🏻 I have always found hiking shorts to be HARD to shop for… anyone else? They either don’t fit my waist or thighs or aren’t actually cute & functional… so after trying a ton, here are some I love this season: This is what I look for when finding a good pair of shorts: • High waisted • Covers my curves when I bend over • COMFY and not too tight • Breathable & not too heavy • Minimal thigh gobble • ADJUSTABLE WAIST (I can’t believe ppl still aren’t giving us this!) My Sizing: • Pants: 29-31, 8-10 or large-XL • 5’9” • 180lbs • Inseam 31” • Curvy, athletic build Note: NONE of this is spon. 1️⃣ Option 1: @patagonia Outdoor Everyday Short My Size: Large How it fits: • They run a half size small! If you have a bigger booty, they are a bit tricky to get over it BUT once you do, they fit AMAZING. Note: if you’re wearing in the water, they do STRETCH. So plan accordingly. 2️⃣ Option 2: @hikerkind 8 Pocket Shorts 01 My Size: Large How it fits: • Extremely true to size! Large was perfect for me! Material is incredible too! They are more on the pricey side but it helps that I can wear them for everyday outfits too- not just hiking. The color options also work with SO much in my wardrobe. 3️⃣ Option 3: @Prana Zion Stretch Cargo Short My Size: 8 (currently wearing) but 10 would be looser in the thighs. How it fits: • True to size! But they DO stretch out and get a bit baggier. So for that reason, they run about a half size big. Very cute & flattering & great color options! #leggings #size8 #size8outfits #midsize
