Nike Trail Second Sunrise

So far, really impressed with Nike ACG! Their line has some very well-designed and functional pieces for all kinds of outdoorsy activities. I ordered these for my brother. Some initial impressions: - They really weren’t kidding about the pockets! So many of them (hidden, zipped, small, large, front, back, you name it!). I’m not share how secure some pockets are, but in general, very convenient. - The material is very lightweight but sturdy. There’s a mesh inner layer underneath as well, which looks very breathable and comfy. - The shorts are super adjustable! I accidentally got a large for my brother, but we were able to make it work because of the elastic waist and drawstrings. - The shirts have some loops meant for hiking poles (so cool?!). I bet you could also add a carabiner or something. - I really liked the neutral color scheme. The top of the shorts is gray and has an interesting plaid print. - They are a little pricier than what I’m used to, but given the unique features, I think this might be worth it for an avid hiker or if they’re on sale. It’s too chilly to wear these out now, but I’m sure they’ll be perfect for indoor use or for hikes in warmer weather!

Nike, why on earth can't you do a liner instead of a brief? that would make these incredible. Also always have zippered side pockets. Not too hard to understand I would think.

Saw these in the store and was extremely excited to see them return to the lighter weight material. But … the loss of zippered pockets makes the gain a complete loss. My spouse and I both only wear Nike trail specifically for the older versions light weight and the security of not loosing items in our pockets. As a female the 5” length was perfect and they had one thing the women’s shorts always miss on… lots of pockets & secure pockets for your items. Disappointed in the change in security but happy they have gone back to the lighter material. Maybe the next version will go back to the original and have both.
