When to use — Trekking, travel and everyday wear in warm weather or mixed conditions where durability matters more than minimum weight. Equally at home in an alpine village as on the trail, with a clean, considered fit for off-mountain wear without sacrificing function on it.
Waxed cotton-blend; what it does — The waxed and DWR-finished fabric sheds wind, dirt and light rain. Unlike technical softshell, this waxed cotton-blend improves with wear and can be re-waxed to restore full performance over the life of the short.
Versus the Sunnan and Bjarg shorts — The Torv Short is heavier and more structured with sturdier fabric, reinforced seat, and more storage. Choose the Sunnan or Bjarg for output; choose the Torv Short for durability and character.
Reinforcement — Double-layer reinforced seat and twin-needle stitching throughout. Long lasting and built for sustained use.
Pockets — Six pockets: two hip hand pockets for everyday access; two large bellow pockets for bulkier items; one zipped thigh pocket; one zipped rear pocket for security. More storage than a standard trekking short.
Waist — More fitted waist than the Sunnan with heavy-duty belt loops for an optional belt.
Ethics & sustainability — 65% recycled polyester face fabric. PFC-free DWR and wax finish throughout.
