Men's Timberline Utility Short

The Timberline Utility Short is built for year-round outdoor pursuits—from rugged hikes and backcountry missions to laid-back days working or relaxing outside. Made with a bluesign® approved nylon blend, these shorts balance abrasion resistance, stretch, and durability for all-day comfort. A DWR finish adds water and wind resistance, while UPF 50+ protection shields against the sun. A gusseted crotch improves mobility, and multiple pockets—including a zippered thigh cargo pocket and knife-compatible reinforced pocket—keep tools and essentials secure. Finished with a raised heat transfer logo, these shorts blend technical performance with everyday versatility.

Abrasion-Resistant Nylon Blend
A bluesign® approved 95% nylon / 5% spandex blend delivers durable, abrasion-resistant performance that stands up to brush, rock, and daily wear across seasons of hard use, with just enough stretch to keep the silhouette comfortable on the move.
DWR Water & Wind Resistance
A DWR (durable water repellent) finish sheds light rain, drizzle, wet brush, and snow flurries while resisting wind chill on exposed ridgelines and breezy summits.
UPF 50+ Sun Protection
Maximum-rated sun protection shields the legs from harmful UV rays on long, exposed trail days, alpine traverses, and paddle sessions, eliminating the need for sunscreen on covered skin.
Gusseted Crotch
A gusseted crotch eliminates binding and chafing at the inseam during high-stepping moves, deep squats, scrambles, and long days in the saddle on technical descents.
Knife-Compatible Hand Pocket
A double-layer fabric at the right hand pocket is built to accept a fixed-blade knife or multi-tool, providing a secure, low-profile carry option for field, work, and backcountry use.
Zip Thigh Cargo Pocket
A left-thigh zip cargo pocket secures a phone, GPS, map, multi-tool, or a small snack, and stays accessible without bouncing on rough descents or under a pack hip belt.
Back Drop-In Pockets
Two back drop-in pockets with an interior brand story print provide casual-storage style for a wallet, phone, or snack, with a subtle brand touch on the pocket bag.
Riveted Hand Pockets & Metal Shank Closure
Rivets at the hand pocket corners add reinforcement at the high-stress wear points of everyday carry, while a metal shank button closure delivers a clean, durable finish that stands up to repeated use.
9" Inseam with 23.5" Leg Opening
A 9" inseam hits above the knee for unrestricted movement on the trail and at the crag, while a roomy 23.5" leg opening (size 32) accommodates boots, approach shoes, and barefoot wear without binding.

Cleaning
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild technical-gear or liquid detergent. Do not use bleach, fabric softener, or standard laundry soap, which can degrade the spandex stretch, the DWR finish, and the UPF rating over time.
Drying
Tumble dry on low heat for 20–30 minutes to reactivate the DWR finish, or hang to air dry. The quick-drying nylon will air dry in minutes. Avoid high heat, which can damage the spandex content and warp the rivets or metal shank button.
DWR Refresh
When the fabric no longer sheds water, reproof with a spray-on DWR treatment compatible with stretch nylon to restore water-shedding performance without compromising the stretch or the UPF finish.
Storage
Allow the shorts to dry fully before storing. Hang on a clip hanger or fold loosely in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Avoid compression under heavy gear, which can crush the rivet reinforcements and degrade the spandex stretch over time.
