Men's Stretch Zion Short

The prAna Men's Stretch Zion Short is a proven option for hikers, climbers, and anyone who needs one pair of shorts that can handle regular use outdoors. Built from Stretch Zion™ fabric, it combines lasting durability with easy movement, so it works well on long trail days, scrambling sections, and the kind of warm-weather travel where your gear needs to do more than one job.

In real use, the details are what make it stand out. The fabric is abrasion-resistant, moisture-wicking, and rated to UPF 50+ for reliable sun protection. prAna’s signature adjustable webbing waistband helps fine-tune the fit, and the ventilated inseam gusset adds comfort when you’re moving all day. Storage is practical without feeling overbuilt, with mesh-lined pockets, a left thigh double-entry zipper cargo pocket, and a concealed zipper coin pocket with an elastic key loop. If you’ve worn the Zion Short II and liked how it handled trail mileage and everyday wear, this is an easy recommendation.
