Cypress Shorts, from Alpine Parrot, the makers of the outstanding Ponderosa Pants.

Only 1X size left in stock. Sadly Alpine Parrot has gone out of business so what we have in stock is all there is (bar any returns). There will be no more :-(

These lightweight super-comfy shorts are made from the same stretchy, quick-drying, and durable fabric as their best-selling longer-length sibling, the Ponderosa Pants. Boasting unique, high-up but deep side pockets, that can each hold a mobile phone, beverage, or even a Kindle, plus a comfortable, elastic waistband, these shorts are ideal for your warm-weather adventures.

Unlike the Ponderosa Pants, the Cypress Shorts only come in one Fit Style. The elasticated waist band means they fit a far wider range of body shapes so different fit styles have not been necessary after rigorous testing. 

To find your size please measure your body and compare to the size charts. Note that the sizing is different to Outdoor Research X sizes.
