TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
FIT AND COMFORT IN MOVEMENT
These shorts have a slightly fitted straight cut. Use of stretch fabric, preformed knees and a gusset at the crotch enabling maximum freedom of movement.
Perspiration wicking
The light, synthetic fabric guarantees good wicking away of perspiration out of the fabric. We conduct several standardised laboratory tests to validate this property. All our hiking shorts have a performance of 3/5
Quick drying
Drying time measures a fabric's capacity for drying quickly after being wet, according to a standardised protocol.
Product design: our expertise
Our Quechua global design centre is based in Passy, at the foot of Mont-Blanc in Haute-Savoie. This location makes it a real meeting place for our teams (designers, product managers, engineers, etc) and outdoor sports enthusiasts. A great asset for designing your mountain walking products and providing you with all our expertise.
