From weekend mountain bike rides to after-work hikes and extended travels abroad, the Persist Shorts have you covered for the full spectrum of outdoor adventure. These action-ready shorts combine a durable and stretchy nylon face fabric, with super-soft and breathable merino wool next to skin for the ultimate combination of durable performance and comfort. Adjustable tabs on the waist help you dial in a secure fit, and an internal band of Icebreaker's Cool-Lite™ wicking fabric aid in moisture management on warm, active days. They also added ample room in key areas for wearing with bike shorts, and a gusseted design to improve comfort and range of motion.
