Crux Short offers abrasion-resistant performance and stretch for rugged pursuits
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I wear the Crux Short for anything from crag days to trail missions. The cotton ripstop feels tough but has just enough give for high steps and scrambling. The built-in belt stays put, even under a harness or loaded waistpack, and the pockets are super functional without being bulky."
When the temps climb but the terrain gets technical, we pull on the Crux Short. Built by Royal Robbins for rock climbers, hikers, and outdoor roamers, these shorts pair classic durability with modern stretch to tackle warm-weather missions head-on. The 7-inch inseam offers freedom of movement and coverage for bouldering, scrambling, or navigating overgrown trails.
The rugged cotton ripstop fabric resists abrasions and brushes off the rough stuff, while elastane stretch keeps us moving naturally. An integrated, low-profile belt ensures a dialed fit, and side stash pockets give us quick access to essentials. From high desert ascents to backyard belay sessions, the Crux Short holds up when the heat is on.
