Introducing the Alta Light Short - Men's
Experience improved comfort and performance with the latest version of our popular Alta 5 shorts - the Alta Light. Designed to keep you cooler in hot weather, this ultra breathable short features a 4-way stretch fabric with micro perforation on the front body and back yoke, enhancing airflow. The lightweight and durable nylon 4-way stretch with water-resistant finish on the seat provides added durability and protection against unique strains and abrasion.
The Alta Light retains all the functional features of the original Alta 5, offering top performance for trail running. With a lightweight moisture wicking brief liner, a 5-inch inseam, and an extended-slit notched hem, these shorts provide a perfect fit and unmatched comfort. The flat jacquarded elastic single-ply waistband with internal drawstring ensures a secure and customizable fit.
For added convenience, the YKK zip back pocket provides a stable hold and is lined with a waterproof coated fabric to protect your belongings. The back side pockets are ideal for carrying on-the-go fuel, gels, snacks, or even to pack out trash you find on the trails.
