Scrambling in Style: Travl Bermuda Review
Table of Contents [Show]
As an active, outdoorsy mom, I’m constantly seeking the perfect threads to take me from routine errands to intense outdoor adventures. For three of the four seasons, this often means an epic and often disappointing search for shorts. I’ve reached the age when booty shorts are no longer appropriate. I’m not sure they’re ever really appropriate, but that’s a rant for another day! No matter how fit and fabulous you are, no one wants to see your cheeks hanging out, especially while chasing a toddler around the playground. At the same time, I’m not ready to resign myself to the horrible, shapeless mom shorts that add 10 pounds and 10 years the second you slip them on. No thank you! So I was thrilled when Kühl sent me the Travl Bermuda Shorts to review.
KÜHL Travl Bermuda Review
I wore the women's shorts non-stop this summer. Not only were they stylish and comfortable, but they were appropriate for every activity under the sun.With a 10-inch inseam, the Travl Bermudas hit just above the knee, making them ideal mommy length. Plus, the 4-way stretch and side vent allow freedom of movement, perfect for any reach, lunge, or pose required. What I wasn’t expecting was how much I’d love the Travl Bermudas on the trails. On our recent family trip to Maine, I wore the quick dry shorts on three hikes, including an intense hike up and down Mount Katahdin in Baxter State Park (full trail report next week!). The quick dry fabric wicked away moisture and kept me comfy throughout the day, even as I was huffing and puffing my way to the highest point in Maine. The longer length was perfect for scrambling up the boulders on the Hunt Trail and navigating the tricky descent down the Abol Slide. As my butt hit the rocks more times than I care to admit, I was glad my toosh & upper legs were covered by the Tufflex soft shell fabric!
And the shorts were perfect for our family hike up the Beehive Trail in Acadia National Park.
