  • Columbia pfg is the best
Color: Atoll Size: X-Large/8" Inseam
Comfort, fit, durability plus the zip back pocket for my cruise card make this swimsuit a favorite.

  • Favorite teen bathing suit/fishing shirt
Color: Gulf Stream Size: Large/6" Inseam
My son loves these and we buy every summer. They hold up well and dry quickly. Very functional for fishing or swimming.

  • perfect for my ocean beach hobby wear - great fit & stretch - ultra fast drying- belt loops too
Color: Carbon Size: X-Large/8" Inseam
Columbia Men's Backcast IV Water Short (carbon): They FIT, they look good, they're ultra-fast drying. And the pockets are deep enough so stuff won't fall out at the beach. Belt loops! They're great because the elastic on belt-less prior pairs all eventually wore out. I'm stocking up in various colors in case these become unavailable again. ... show more

  • Dries quickly - fits a little loose
Color: Cool Grey Size: XX-Large/6" Inseam
Columbia makes good quality products, so I was not surprised to find these were well built, comfortable, durable and lightweight. They dry VERY quickly which is great. I've actually used them as a swim suit before as well as wading shorts when fishing rivers and they do a great job in both situations. From a function perspective they are fantastic. I only gave four stars because they are a little longer than I would like, and they are a little overly "boxy" and don't really offer any style benefits... it's nitpicky but it's true. ... show more

Guys in my house favorite shorts living in subtropical weather. Lite weight and great quality. Nice around the waist & hang well. Good deal.

  • Small Side Pocket Deleted
Color: Carbon Size: Medium/8" Inseam
These shorts are great; I really appreciate the belt loops! However, the Backwater III shorts had a small patch pocket on the right side; I used that pocket a lot! Dear Columbia- please bring this side pocket back, it so useful! I would also like to see a second rear pocket on the left side.
