Patagonia Men's Home Waters Hybrid Short 18"

Patagonia Men's Home Waters Hybrid Short 18"

A relaxed, versatile hybrid short that sits between a casual cotton short and a performance water short without fully committing to either. The Home Waters is built for the kind of day that starts at the beach and ends wherever it ends, with an organic cotton and recycled polyester ripstop blend that's comfortable enough to lounge in and durable enough to work in.

Why We Carry It
It's the short we recommend when someone wants something that looks good enough for town but can handle getting wet, dirty, or both without looking like they tried too hard.

Highlights

• 59% organic cotton, 28% recycled polyester, 13% spandex ripstop — A natural-feeling blend with real stretch and durability. The organic cotton gives it a comfortable, broken-in feel while the spandex and ripstop construction add the flexibility and toughness to handle active use without wearing out quickly.
• 13% spandex for serious stretch — A high spandex content that delivers genuine freedom of movement in a casual-looking short. Comfortable through a full range of activity without the restrictive feel of a standard cotton short.
• Zip fly with drawcord and hook-and-loop waistband closure — A hybrid waistband that combines the clean look of a zip fly with the adjustability of a drawcord and the security of hook-and-loop when you need it. More versatile than a pure elastic waist or a standard button fly.
• Two on-seam front pockets plus rear pocket with key loop and drainage — Functional storage for everyday essentials with a secure rear pocket that drains when the short gets wet. The key loop keeps you from losing what you can't afford to lose at the beach or on the boat.
• 18-inch outseam in regular fit — A longer length that hits below the knee for a more relaxed, casual silhouette. Works well on and off the water without looking like a swimsuit or a hiking short.
• 7 ounce weight — Substantial enough to feel durable without being heavy or stiff for all-day wear.
• Fair Trade Certified factory — The people who made this product earned a fair wage premium for their labor.

Best for

Active outdoor enthusiasts, paddlers, and beach-goers who want a comfortable, versatile hybrid short that handles water, work, and casual wear with equal ease. A strong choice for anyone who wants one short that covers the full range of a summer day without changing between activities.
