We all have at least one “no-brainer” item hanging permanently on the closet door, ready for whenever the mountains call. For Luke Nelson, that’s the Trailfarer Shorts: the most minimalist in our line, built with a lightweight fabric and a single back pocket.

TRAILFARER SHORTS
“I have probably run 1,500 miles in the Trailfarer Shorts. They’ve been my go-to all spring and summer. They’re simple: very lightweight, with no unnecessary frills. It’s the kind of short that works just as well for all-day runs, scrambling and alpine lake swimming.”
