The Ultimate Travel Utility Shorts Designed to be the perfect companion to the Excursion Tee, the NANGA PLC Excursion Shorts are the definitive choice for active summer scenes. Whether you are navigating a bustling city, attending a weekend festival, or exploring coastal trails, these shorts prioritise lightness and packability without sacrificing a sharp, refined silhouette. Performance Fabric: Shadow Rip® Like the rest of the PLC (Packable / Light / Compact) series, these shorts are crafted from high-performance Shadow Rip® material: Superior Durability: The ripstop weave provides excellent tear resistance while remaining incredibly thin and lightweight. UV Protection: Built with UPF 30+ protection (varies slightly by colour) to keep you safe during high-exposure activities. Quick-Dry & Water Repellent: Engineered to shed light moisture and dry rapidly, making them ideal for unpredictable weather or transitional environments. Smooth Hand-Feel: Unlike traditional rugged ripstops, Shadow Rip® feels smooth and comfortable against the skin. Functional Design Details Self-Stowing Design: The shorts can be entirely folded and compressed into the zippered rear right pocket, making them a "no-brainer" addition to any travel bag. 2-Way Spindle Waist: The elasticated waist features a unique 2-way drawstring that can be tied on the inside for a clean, minimalist look, or on the outside for a more casual, accessible style. Refined Silhouette: Features a single "tuck" (pleat) at the front, providing a relaxed fit with a more sophisticated, less "sporty" drape. Night Visibility: A reflective NANGA logo on the left hem ensures you remain visible during evening treks or urban commutes. Technical Summary Material: 100% Shadow Rip® Polyester Weight: Ultra-lightweight (Approx. 130g) Storage: Two side pockets + one packable zippered rear pocket. Fit: Relaxed with a single front tuck.
