Product Information

Full details

The Columbia Ridge Shorts are designed for active adults who prioritize moisture management and utility during outdoor excursions. Crafted from 100% recycled polyester, these shorts offer integrated moisture-wicking technology and UPF 50 sun protection to keep you cool and dry in warm climates. While they provide excellent storage capacity and comfort, the technical polyester fabric may feel less casual than traditional cotton blends.

FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While they are made of synthetic, quick-drying material, they are primarily designed as hiking shorts rather than dedicated swimwear.

Does the waist run true to size?

The shorts feature a regular fit with a partial elastic waist, which generally provides a consistent fit based on standard waist sizing.

Can I replace the integrated belt?

Yes, the belt is removable, allowing you to switch it out for a different accessory if desired.

What does the UPF 50 rating mean?

UPF 50 fabric blocks 98% of the sun's UVA and UVB rays, providing a high level of protection for skin covered by the material.

Are they wrinkle-resistant?

The polyester material is naturally resistant to wrinkles, making them an excellent choice for travel and packing in a suitcase.

Troubleshooting

Moisture-wicking isn't working effectively

Residual fabric softener or oils may be clogging the fibers. Wash with a technical gear cleaner or a simple, scent-free detergent without additives.

Belt slips during activity

Ensure the belt is fed correctly through the buckle teeth. If the webbing has frayed, trim carefully with scissors and singe the edge with a lighter to prevent further unraveling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Columbia Ridge Shorts, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and interfere with the Omni-Wick moisture-wicking performance.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
  3. Belt Maintenance: The integrated belt can be removed for washing; ensure it is properly re-threaded through the loops before use.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving the shorts damp in a sealed bag after exercise to prevent odors.
