Patagonia Sandy Cay 9in Short - Men's Seabird Grey, 40

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I love these shorts for long days on the water or any hot, humid outing. They’re super lightweight, dry fast, and the recycled nylon feels tougher than it looks. The 9-inch inseam gives good coverage without getting in the way, and the pockets are laid out perfectly for small essentials. They’re the pair I reach for when I want something that’s comfortable, breathable, and built to handle sun and spray.""We turn to the Patagonia Sandy Cay 9in Shorts when long days near water, sun-drenched trails, and humid travel call for breathable performance. Patagonia uses lightweight recycled nylon with a PFAS-free DWR finish, giving us fast-drying comfort and dependable protection whether we’re fishing from the shoreline, exploring warm beaches, or hiking through midday heat. Stretch-woven panels enhance mobility for active pursuits, while the regular fit maintains all-day comfort. Inside, the tricot mesh lining adds soft next-to-skin feel, and the pocket design keeps essentials secure without adding bulk. Built for warm-weather adventure but versatile enough for everyday travel, these shorts anchor our hot-weather kit."
