Rugged water trunks that surpass the boundaries of a traditional swimsuit. Columbia Sportswear Cascade Creek for men features two side slit pockets and a flap pocket on the lower right side of trunk. Great for the water, hiking, or a casual weekend. 100% Nylon.
Best all around sport short
I use this short as my main equipment for all my outdoor activities. I live near the beach, I frequent a nearby park and play basketball and other games. After a big sweat, I dunk at the beach or at a pool and later I just dump the shorts in the wash and just let them hang dry for the next day. I have 2 similar pairs that have lasted me for nearly 4 years.
Outstanding product!!
The Cascade II shorts are the best shorts I've ever worn. And I've been wearing shorts since the 60's. When will more sizes be available...Especially LARGE...soon!!
Great shorts for any water event
This is my 4th pair of these. Very comfortable, true to size, dry quickly. Can wear all day.

Wonderful Shorts
Great shorts love them for walking and working on my boat. Comfortable and keeps you dry.
I have probably 30 pairs of shorts and...
of shorts of mostly different brands and wear them almost year 'round. I keep them in a stack and when these Columbias roll around, I can feel the quality and well thought out design. They're very versatile and comfortable. I have had real positive experiences with their customer service whenever I needed it too! First class. Thank you.
Excellent hiking shorts
I've logged hundreds of hard trail miles over the past five years in these shorts. They are comfortable, durable(no signs of wear yet), and convenient with their multiple assorted pockets.
Good Quality and Fast Delivery!!
The quality of the short is very good. It was delivered to me very soon.
Recommend to purchase
Love these shorts...
I've been wearing a version of these shorts for years. was unable to find them at retail stores in my area recently. the numerous pockets, zippers, and velcro allow me to wear these on the lake, beach, or anywhere else w/o worrying about losing gear or wallet or keys or phone or...you get the idea.
Great product
High quality shorts. They look good, fit good, and are very comfortable. I would reccommend to anyone.
Excellent
Exactly what I was looking for. Shorts fit great and are very versatile. Great for fishing or just casual wear.
Great
I think these shorts are awesome, I can wear them for both hiking and casual wear. They are very comfortable to have on, there isn't anything I dislike about these shorts!
My Favorite Shorts!
These are my favorite shorts. I wear them in the water and during the day. They are very versatile and wash well. I plan on ordering more today.
A Good Buy
I can always rely on Columbia for quality and utility in style. The Water short is lightweight, comfortable, and dries quickly. It is great apparel to wear at the shore. The fit is perfect. Highly recommended!
Perfect for any occasion
These are great shorts. I bought 2 pair 2 years ago and they hold up. Just bought 2 more. I use them for hiking, swimming and just about any occasion that call for shorts. I highly recommend Altrec as they do what they promise.
Great Short!
This is a fantastic short and so versatile. I wear them hiking, kayaking, and for casual wear. They are very comfortable, cool, offer great sun protection, durable, and maintain their color. The best short I have found...I have one of every color.
Outshanding quality
I have come to rely on Columbia for top-of-the-line fit and quality. The Cascade Creek II's confirm this. The Laguna color is great but hard for me to match with a shirt.
Quick shipping and wonderful inventory.
I was unable to find this particular color anywhere else in stores or on the internet, but Altrec had it in stock and at a very competitive price, with no shipping costs or sales tax.
Good quality.
Lightweight, quick-dry, and very comfortable. Color choices shown on this site are true - have seen color choices on some sites that did not accurately represent the actual delivered product.
Not quite sue what you want to hear, so so far this site seems h
are these the same shorts I and the 'men' in my life have worn for years? I am now looking to replace the shorts that our 21 year old has discovered in his father's drawer. He suddenly decided they are cool and hasn't been seen without them on. Help us find the same good old light weight water shorts!
GREAT SHORTS, NO BETTER FOR HOT CLIMATES
I LIVE IN THE LOW DESERT IN CALIFORNIA AND THESE ARE THE ONLY SHORTS I WILL WEAR IN THE SUMMER. GREAT FOR WORK AND GOLF. THANKS
Great Shorts
Cool, Lightweight durable and quick drying shorts; great in hot weather...
The best shorts!
Comfortable, great pockets, durable. Have worn them for years and the others don't compare. Harder and harder to find.
Best selection of columbia shorts anywhere.
I wear columbia cascade creek water shorts all summer long, and I like to have many colors. Altrec has the best color selection anywhere.
Great Shorts
Lightweight durable and quick drying shorts...
Simply the best!!!!!!
THE #1 Cargo Shorts for whitewater rafting,or any water sport. Great fabric, styling, durability, and comfort (quick drying, never a "rash"). Please don't discontinue this model!!!
Great Hiking Shorts
I use these shorts for hiking, especially on air travel trips away from home. They are light weight, comfortable, and dry quickly when laundered on the trail or in the hotel sink between day trips.
Great all purpose outdoor mens short.
Product is light weight but long enough that it looks good out on a hike or on the beach. Works well as swim gear and does not cling to your body like running shorts.
Columbia - please get your sizing right!
Hi - this is more of a rant on Columbia sizing versus the shorts. The shorts were nice, but unfortunately too small.
I had previously ordered two other different Columbia shorts that turned out to be too big. This prompted me to order this short in a small which was too small.
Granted, each short was a different model, but shouldn't the sizing be the same across a company's product line. Therefore, buyer beware when ordering Columbia shorts online without trying them on.
Thank goodness Altrec is so great with their returns policy!
Shorts are great, elastic belt...not so much.
The shorts would be great, but i could not pull the waste band tight enough to fit securely.
Consider ordering a smaller size than you normally would for a pair of shorts, especially if you have a relatively slim wasteline.
