Brinco 5" Short - Solid - Women's

About this find

The Brinco 5" Short is a retro-styled women's short made for active days. It suits hiking, bouldering, swimming and evenings around the campfire, so one pair can cover a whole weekend outdoors. It comes in a solid colorway, and the 5" length sits between the shorter 3" inseam option and a longer cut.

The fabric is 96% recycled polyamide with 4% elastane, a synthetic blend at 150 g/m². It is breathable, quick-drying and stretchy, which suits wet and sweaty outdoor days. The elastane gives the stretch you want for climbing, stepping up on rocks and moving freely through long walks.

Setup is simple and adjustable. An elastic hip belt and a drawstring let you set the waist where you want it, and the regular fit leaves room to move. You get two pockets plus one back pocket for small things like a key or a trail snack, so you can keep your hands free.

If you plan to swim in these, pack a dry pair of underwear for the walk back. Between the recycled polyamide, the quick-drying fabric and the retro look, the Brinco is a practical short for travel days, hillwalking and lake stops. A men's version is also available.
