Even the pockets are lined with bi-stretch fabric and the Microsand finish is soft to the touch and easy to wear. Whether you're tracking or backpacking, go for the Triumph for the win.

You’ve heard of a short stack? Get ready for a seriously stacked short. The Terra Twill layers features onto features; from comfort to utility to functionality.

Utility comes through in 8 pockets total, including two rear Nylon 6 magazine pockets and reinforced front pockets. And functionality? The flex-cuff channel at the waistband will serve you well. For exploring the great outdoors or the urban jungle, the Terra won’t hold you back. Learn More

The hand pockets are reinforced with Nylon 6 and - should you need it - a hidden flexi-cuff tunnel inside the waistband. Learn More
