These Water-resistant Cargo Shorts Have 6 Pockets for Hiking Hands-free, and They're Just $23 Now

Snag them ahead of summer travel.

As much as I have come to rely on joggers as my go-to bottoms when traveling, the increasingly warmer weather has me ready to ditch pants and reach for a pair of shorts. In a hunt for a versatile option, I came across these lightweight and breathable cargo shorts from Walmart — and they’re currently on sale for just $23. 

Similarly to joggers or leggings, these shorts act as a catch-all for spring and summer travel. The fabric, which is made from a nylon and spandex blend, features a four-way stretch that makes the shorts a comfortable pick for long car rides and flights, daily wear, and camping trips. Plus the quick-dry, water-resistant fabric wicks away sweat, so you know they’ll last through a vigorous hike, fishing trip, or walk  — whether it’s sizzling hot or pouring down rain.

While the cargo shorts can be worn for a variety of activities, including golfing, backpacking, and running, they feature a few hiking-specific features. They offer six roomy pockets — four in the front and two in the back — so you can keep all of your essential items with you while remaining hands-free on your hike. They also have a D-ring on the belt, which allows you to easily hook on additional hiking gear, and a stretchy waistband to keep you comfortable while moving and sitting. One reviewer wore these to the Grand Canyon and said the pockets comfortably held a water bottle, wallet, keys, and more. 

If you have outdoor vacations or activities coming up, you’ll be glad you added these water-resistant shorts to your wardrobe ahead of the summer, especially while they’re on sale. They come in eight colors, including shades of khaki, green, brown, blue, and black, and they’re machine-washable for easy care. One shopper even claimed they are the best shorts for the summer, adding that the lightweight material doesn’t stick to you. 

Make sure your travel and hiking wardrobe is ready for warmer weather by grabbing these Yuyangdpb Cargo Hiking Shorts while they’re on sale. For similar styles, keep scrolling through for more affordable options at Walmart.
