The Men's Renegade Short is the warm-weather companion to KÜHL's flagship Renegade Pant — the same DURALUX™ fabric, the same eight-pocket layout, and the same articulated construction in a hiking-and-travel short built for active outdoor use and casual rotation alike.
The fabric is DURALUX (95% nylon / 5% spandex) with a water-resistant finish at 170 grams per square meter (GSM) — a measure of fabric weight — soft to the touch yet abrasion-resistant, quick-drying, and finished with UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) 50+ for maximum covered-area sun protection. Natural two-way stretch and a gusseted crotch deliver freedom of movement, a durable water repellent (DWR) finish sheds light moisture, and a Free Ryde waistband lined with soft micro chamois adds all-day comfort. The eight-pocket layout keeps gear organized, including dedicated cellphone stash pockets.
