Great wet shorts!
I purchased 3 pairs because these shorts are so versatile and dry quickly. I can go run and work out, then go swimming right away. The belt works great, and the pockets are very helpful. There is even a tie inside.
The fabric is super soft and I am wearing one of the pairs as I write this.
It does not get much better than this for wet shorts!

Just what I wanted
I was looking for a pair of shorts that I can wear to work out at the gym and when I am finished I could just jump in the pool and do a few laps. These were exactly what I was looking for. They dry quickly, hold their shape and go from gym to pool flawlessly.
The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is that they run slightly big and I wish it had a zipper on the back pocket and not velcro. I am a big guy, 6'2" and 250lbs with a 40 inch pant. I ordered the XL. There is plenty of belt when dry but I had to cinch them up when I dove into the pool and it left a lot of belt in the pool. If you are between sizes, I might opt for the smaller size.

Looking for some comfortable Crossfit shorts...
Just got them - but I love them already. I was just looking for a good, light-weight short for running or crossfit. I'm not sure how they'll hold up, but they seem like they're perfect for a good WOD.

Great Trunks
Losing weight and needed a smaller pair of trunks. Saw these in the outlet. Bought. Received. Excited. Material texture great. Integrated belt perfect and even a draw string to get to the best fit. Length was how I like it. Very comfortable when I tried these on. I'll enjoy the river next trip without worries.

The best...
This summer I wore Class V Trunk Shorts backpacking 86 miles in NM--always comfortable in rain, 95 plus heat, cold nights. 3 weeks later: I wore Class V Trunk Shorts everyday for a week in Hawaii--snorkling, body surfing, etc. Again, extremly comfortable. These 2 environs are about as far apart as you can get and yet these shorts were awesome. Highly recommended

Great Shorts at a great value
Another great product courtesy of North Face by way of Altrec. These shorts wear great, wash even better and feel as if you are wearing nothing at all. At the current price they are a great value and would be perfect for any high impact / low impact activity.

Good Quality
The North Face Men's Class V Trunk Shorts on my river trip for the ultimate in comfort and protection. Quick drying and this classic rafting short for beach place.

Outstanding Trunks
These shorts are among the best trunks I own (comparing to similar products from Patagonia and Columbia). Having only worn them for two weekends, the material feels incredibly durable and should hold up to years of abuse. The mesh lining is comfortable, no pinching or rubbing.
To my eyes (or maybe just my computer monitor), the website portrays the colors more vividly than they actually are... I ordered three pairs (all in earth-tones), but wouldn't shy away from the brighter colors on a second go-round. Bottom line, if you're going for a high quality, comfortable pair of shorts... you can't go wrong with the Men's Class V Trunk Shorts.

Great river or swim shorts
Nice shorts, love the way they feel. I've used them kayaking and they dry quickly. They fit a little large; I ordered medium and exchanged them for a small. I'm about 31" waist, and the size range for small is 28"-30", and the size range for medium is 32"-34" so I fall right in the middle. The small is a much better fit for me. They make good swim trunks too.

Great Shorts
Was looking for some functional and comfortable boat shorts...and these are perfect for me. I'm 5' 8"/average build, and struggle sometimes with shorts being 1" or 2" too long. The 8" inseam on these is perfect for me. I now own 3 pairs. Durable, lightweight, quick drying. Love 'em.
