Lightweight hiking shorts using the Better Shorts as an underlay and replacing the material with PERTEX EQUILIBLIUM, which is lighter and more breathable. Catering to active hikers who want hiking shorts that allow them to lift their legs more easily and have better shedding. The grit knit panel at the waist is omitted because the material itself is stretchy. It has a simpler and smarter design. The hem is not as short as running shorts, but the ease of movement is comparable to running shorts. I want something as light as running shorts, but I can't give up on the ease of use of the placket and pockets. If the Better Shorts are well-balanced long hike shorts that can handle a variety of situations, the Better Shorts Equilibrium can be said to be the UL hike shorts that will make you want to continue walking further.
