Arch Rock 8in Short - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I've been living in the Arch Rock 8in Short from the trailhead to the taproom and it transitions between the two without missing a beat. The recycled nylon fabric has a really satisfying stretch to it that never fights you on steep terrain, and the zippered hand pocket keeps my phone secure on technical sections without adding any bulk."

The best hiking shorts are the ones that go everywhere the day does, and the Arch Rock 8in Short from Marmot earns that spot without any hesitation. Built for heavy use on trail and easy use everywhere else, it's a technical short that never looks out of place whether you're pushing a ridgeline or grabbing a coffee on the way home.

The recycled nylon blend is lightweight, stretchy, and abrasion resistant enough to handle rough terrain without showing it afterward, and the PFC-free DWR finish sheds light moisture so a passing rain shower doesn't slow you down. Belt loops and a clean silhouette keep things versatile beyond the trailhead, and UPF 50 protection means long days in the sun aren't something you have to think twice about.
