Built for movement off the beaten path, the Wasatch Ripstop 5in Pull-On Short balances durability and mobility
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’ve been wearing these for everything from quick trail hikes to scrambling around local ridgelines. They’re light and comfortable but still tough enough to brush against rock and branches. The stretch is noticeable when moving uphill, and the waistband stays comfortable even when I’m on the move all day."
We built the Wasatch Ripstop 5in Pull-On Short for days when the plan is loose and the terrain isn’t. From local trail loops to exploratory ridgeline missions, these shorts are made to move confidently through rugged terrain while staying comfortable from morning to evening. We used a recycled stretch ripstop fabric that balances durability with mobility, giving us freedom to move when scrambling, hiking, or covering ground at a steady pace. A soft hybrid waistband with an integrated drawcord keeps the fit secure without feeling restrictive, while a zippered thigh pocket and back pocket keep essentials in place. Finished with a PFC-free water-resistant treatment for surprise weather, these shorts are built to handle long days outside without overthinking the route.

Inside The Wasatch Ripstop

Stretch Ripstop Fabric
Built to move and built to last, the Wasatch Ripstop blend solves the trade-off between tough and comfortable so these bottoms keep up without slowing you down.

Water-Resistant Finish
The DWR finish sheds moisture so the fabric stays dry when conditions shift. It's also PFC-free, meaning the protection comes without the harmful chemicals typically found in older water-resistant treatments.

Built Responsibly
Every Wasatch Ripstop style uses 61% recycled nylon and carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification, independently tested against more than 100 harmful substances so the gear is as safe to wear as it is to make.

Pull-On Waistband
No buckles, no buttons. The elastic waist with an internal drawcord slips on fast and adjusts to you, so the fit is comfortable from your first step to the last.

Zippered Thigh Pocket
Stash a snack, pocket some trail finds, or keep small gear within reach. The zippered pocket stays shut on the descent so nothing gets left behind.

About The Backcountry Brand
Backcountry began in 1996 with two skiers, a stack of avalanche beacons, and a garage in Park City, Utah.

Built By Gearheads
We live and breathe the outdoors, so every stitch of Backcountry gear is made with a mission in mind. Designed in Park City at the foot of Utah’s Wasatch mountains—and tested by our Gearhead® Experts who use it every day—Backcountry styles are built to perform wherever the snow lands, trail leads or adventure calls.
