Women's 13ft Knee Length Hiking Shorts - Quick Dry Bermuda

In this review of the women's 13' knee length hiking shorts we look at who will get the most from a lightweight, quick dry pair designed for active days outdoors. These shorts stand out for combining a comfortable 13' knee length cut with breathable fabric and UPF 50+ protection, making them a strong option for hikers, campers, or anyone who wants practical everyday shorts that dry fast and resist light moisture. The overall impression is of a versatile Bermuda that balances modest coverage with mobility.

Key Features

• 13' knee length: Provides extra coverage and easier movement when climbing, stepping over obstacles, or walking uneven trails.
• UPF 50+ sun protection: The fabric helps shield skin from UV exposure during long days outdoors.
• Quick dry and water resistant: Lightweight material sheds light rain and dries rapidly so the wearer stays comfortable on multi-hour outings.
• Security zipper pocket: One zippered side pocket keeps essentials like a phone or wallet secure while two open pockets offer easy access to small items.
• High elastic waistband: The stretchy waist improves fit across sizes and reduces restriction during active movement.
• Side hem slits: Small slits at the hem increase range of motion and add a subtle, feminine detail.

Who It's For

The shorts are best for women who want modest, knee-length coverage for outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, fishing, travel, or long walks. Their quick dry fabric and UPF 50+ protection make them suited to warm, variable conditions where sun and occasional moisture are concerns.

Those seeking heavy insulation, thick fabric for colder climates, or formal styling should look elsewhere; the material is intentionally lightweight and some customers describe the fabric as very thin, so they are optimized for breathability and summer use rather than cold-weather durability.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Comfortable, roomy fit that accommodates a phone in the pockets without pulling.
• Lightweight and breathable with quick dry performance for hot, active days.
• Good sun protection with UPF 50+ for long outdoor exposure.
• High waistband and hem slits deliver a secure fit and improved mobility.

Cons

• Fabric thickness receives mixed feedback; some users may find the material too thin for cooler or rugged use.
• Water resistant, not fully waterproof, so heavy rain will still penetrate.
