Meet the Patagonia Men’s Strider Pro Running Shorts – 7" Inseam in Black—Patagonia’s most technical trail running short, built for long missions where comfort, storage, and low weight all matter. These are the shorts ultra-runners and mountain explorers keep coming back to.
Key Features: 7" inseam for balanced coverage; lightweight outer short with bonded seams; integrated brief liner for support; five pockets total—one center-back zip pocket plus four stretchy hip pockets for gels, gloves, or a small flask; low-profile waistband with an internal drawcord. :contentReference[oaicite:14]{index=14}
Fabric & Feel: The Patagonia Men’s Strider Pro Running Shorts are made from a fast-drying recycled polyester fabric with a PFC-free DWR (durable water-repellent) finish on many current versions. The liner uses a breathable, moisture-wicking mesh to keep you comfortable over long distances, while the outer short feels featherlight and unrestrictive.
Why It’s Good: High recycled content reduces reliance on virgin synthetics, and Patagonia’s shift to PFC-free DWR coatings helps move away from the most persistent water-repellent chemicals. The shorts are Fair Trade Certified™ sewn, which channels additional money back to workers. Strider Pro’s durability and timeless running-specific design also encourage you to wear them season after season instead of constantly upgrading.
Fit & Care: Trim, run-ready fit with a secure liner. Choose your usual running short size; size up if you prefer more room in the thigh. Machine wash cold, tumble dry low, and avoid fabric softeners, which can interfere with moisture-wicking and water-repellent finishes.
Style Notes: Pair the Patagonia Men’s Strider Pro Running Shorts – 7" Inseam in Black with a technical tee and lightweight running vest for mountain days, or throw them on with a tank and sandals when you’re recovering between big efforts.
