For those who view trails as their sanctuary, running means more than
freedom of movement and lightness of being. Patagonia's versatile, pared-down,
tough yet breathable Nine Trails Shorts are made from a lightweight
blend of 75-denier 91% all-recycled polyester/9% spandex fabric with
4-way stretch and a Delugeå¨ DWR (durable water repellent) finish. The
stitched-through pocket bags (two front drop-in, one back zippered with a
key loop) stay put for secure storage. To help vent excess heat, keep
you dry, and eliminate chafing, the crotch gusset and interior waistband
use quick-drying Air Flow recycled polyester mesh fabric. The
breathable, moisture-wicking, built-in liner is soft and extends into
the interior waistband. A drawcord at the waist fine-tunes the fit.
Inseam is 8". With reflective heat-transfer logo on front and back.
Patagonia recycles used soda bottles, unusable second quality fabrics and worn out
garments into polyester fibers to produce many of their clothes.
