DESCRIPTION

One Pair. Every Adventure. Zero Compromises.

Meet the Magellan Explorer Shorts: made from our rugged Llamaxplorer™ fabric (recycled poly/cotton/spandex) with DWR quick-dry protection, these shorts are ready for beach hikes, rooftop cocktails, golf outings or globe-trotting adventures. With a clean 8.5″ inseam, belt‑loop waistband, hideaway drawcord, laser‑vented gusset + rear yoke (airflow where it matters), and zip‑secure side and wallet pockets, they combine smart function with a West‑Coast polished look. 


Key Features & Benefits

  • Llamaxplorer™ Trifecta Fabric (Recycled Poly + Cotton + Spandex): Soft to the touch, rugged enough for outdoor excursions, and treated with DWR for quick-drying performance.

  • Laser-Vented Gusset & Rear Yoke: Strategically placed vents disperse heat—keeping you cool no matter the climb.

  • Secure Storage: Double rear pockets include a hidden zip pocket; plus, a passport-sized side seam zip pocket keeps your essentials locked in place.

  • Comfortable, Adjustable Fit: Belt loop waistband with a sleek hideaway drawstring ensures security without bulk, while belt loops give you flexibility to dress this up or down. Golf Friendly!

  • Everyday Length & Modern Silhouette: A balanced 8.5” inseam and 19” outseam (size 33) hit just above the knee—smart enough for golf, rugged enough for backcountry.

    Like The Color

    I have the same shorts in the dark grey. My only reason for not giving 5 stars is this blue pair is the same size 36 but a little more snug. Tried both on one after the other and the grey pair is definitely more comfortable. So, slightly disappointing that the same shorts, only a different color, aren't consistent.

    Amazing shorts

    Bought these as gift for my boyfriend, who is particular about his clothes. He really likes them! Color, fit, fabric. He is losing weight currently so might order a smaller waist size of same short.

FAQ

How do I know what size of Magellan Explorer Shorts will fit me best?
The Magellan Explorer Shorts come in sizes 28 to 38, and they fit true to size with an 8.5" inseam and 19" outseam (size 33). The cut is designed to sit just above the knee with a modern silhouette. Note that some customers have found slight differences in fit between color variants, so checking the size chart and considering your usual size is recommended. If you're between sizes or losing weight, the adjustable drawcord and belt loops offer added flexibility.
Will these shorts be comfortable for active outdoor use like hiking or golfing?
Yes, these shorts are built for active use with a laser-vented gusset and rear yoke that promote airflow and keep you cool during physical activities. The fabric blend (recycled poly, cotton, spandex) is both rugged and soft, with a DWR quick-dry treatment to handle sweat and moisture. The adjustable waistband and secure pockets support comfort and functionality whether you're hiking, golfing, or exploring.
Are the Magellan Explorer Shorts suitable for travel and everyday wear?
These shorts are designed as versatile hybrid explorer shorts, suitable for travel, outdoor adventures, and everyday wear including casual or smart occasions like rooftop cocktails or golf outings. Their modern silhouette and clean styling make them dressy enough for social settings while their durable, quick-drying fabric handles outdoor demands. This makes them a convenient all-day choice when you want to pack light and look sharp.
What materials are used in these shorts, and are they eco-friendly?
The shorts are made from Llamaxplorer™ fabric, a blend of recycled polyester, cotton, and spandex. This combination offers softness, stretch, durability, and quick-drying capability thanks to a DWR (durable water repellent) finish. Using recycled polyester reduces environmental impact, making these shorts a more sustainable choice without compromising performance or comfort.
How should I care for and wash the Magellan Explorer Shorts to maintain their quality?
Machine wash the shorts cold inside out with like colors to protect the fabric and DWR finish. Use a low tumble dry setting to preserve shape and durability. Avoid bleach or fabric softeners which can degrade performance treatments. Following these care instructions helps maintain the shorts’ comfort, quick-drying ability, and overall lifespan.
Do the shorts have secure pockets to keep my valuables safe during travel?
Yes, the shorts feature double rear pockets including a hidden zip pocket and a passport-sized side seam zip pocket. These secure pockets keep your essentials locked in place during active use or travel, reducing the risk of losing important items like your wallet or passport while on the move.
