The Columbia PFG Uncharted Shorts in Beach are built for the seamless transition from the boat deck to the boardwalk. Engineered with Omni-Wick™ technology within a sustainable fabric blend, these shorts pull moisture away from the skin for rapid evaporation during active use. Featuring a secure elasticated waist and a comprehensive pocket system, they serve as a reliable summer staple that maintains a dry, comfortable feel whether you are fishing or navigating high-heat city streets.

At Urban Industry we recommend / Ideal For

• Fishing and waterside activities where quick-drying comfort and moisture wicking are essential for performance.
• Building a high quality summer rotation focused on sustainable materials and technical performance.
• Urban exploration and city walking in high temperatures where maintaining a cool, dry feel is a priority.
• Those seeking a lightweight, flexible short that offers more security than a standard casual garment.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These shorts feature a comfortable, relaxed fit that allows for a full range of motion during physical activity.
• The elastane content provides a four-way stretch that prevents the fabric from restricting your movement.
• The elasticated waist offers significant flexibility, accommodating a wide range of body types without the need for a belt.
• We recommend taking your usual size to benefit from the intended secure and comfortable fit.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colours to maintain the Beach tone and technical finish.
• Avoid the use of fabric softeners, as these can clog the moisture-wicking pores of the Omni-Wick™ fabric.
• Hang the shorts to dry naturally, which is highly efficient due to the recycled polyester construction.
• Do not iron the garment, as high heat can damage the elastane fibres and compromise the stretch performance.
• Ensure all zippers are closed before washing to prevent snagging or damage to the recycled fabric.
