Hiking Shorts
The clothing you take on the trail can have multiple uses. One item you should get is zip-off pants. You will need shorts and pants while you are on the trail. At least one pair of each. Why take one set of shorts and one set of pants when there is one piece of equipment that will do both? If you’ve never used zip-off pants before they’re perfect for backpacking. The new pants have a zipper that goes down the legging so you don’t have to worry about that awkward moment of pulling your pant legging off while you have your boot on.
