Meet the Men’s Wavefarer® Hybrid Walk Shorts – 18" Inseam in Ink Black by Patagonia—go-anywhere hybrid shorts that blur the line between boardshorts and everyday walk shorts. They’re designed for minimalist packers who live in one pair of trunks all trip long.
Key Features: The Wavefarer Hybrid Walk Shorts combine an 18" outseam with an elastic back waist and flat front for a clean look. You get on-seam front pockets, a back pocket with drainage and key loop, and a low-profile waistband that feels as good under a harness or backpack hipbelt as it does under a wetsuit top.
Fabric & Feel: Built from a tough yet quick-drying recycled-nylon blend with a bit of stretch, these shorts are made for swimming, hiking, and city roaming. A PFC-free DWR helps them shed spray and light rain, while the fabric’s soft hand makes them comfortable for all-day wear.
Why It’s Good: The Wavefarer Hybrid Walk Shorts use high recycled nylon content, including Patagonia’s NetPlus® program that turns discarded fishing nets into new fabric, helping reduce ocean plastic pollution. One versatile pair that works as both trunks and shorts means fewer items in your closet and suitcase, supporting a lower-impact, capsule-style wardrobe.
Fit & Care: Expect a regular fit with room to move. Take your usual waist size; the partially elastic waistband and drawcord help fine-tune fit. Rinse after saltwater, machine wash cold, and line or tumble dry low. The Men’s Wavefarer Hybrid Walk Shorts – 18" in Ink Black by Patagonia are ready for everything from tidepool exploring to post-surf taco runs.
