Anyone know of any company that sells combo workout, swimming, everyday shorts in longer inseams? I like the idea of the bird dog shorts or chubbies, but they are all 6” inseam. I’m 6’4” and slender, and short shorts aren’t a good look for me. i like shorts to come just above my knee which is usually a 9 or 10” inseam, but I can’t seem to find anything anywhere.

FreeFly makes some 9” shorts that I wear for everything

Fishing, swimming, working out, yardwork etc

The only 9” I can find on their website is out of stock. I’ll keep checking to see if it comes back.

Oh damn

I guess the Breeze and Hydro are both 8" inseam

well, I recommend them anyways

I'm 6'2" and they are not too short on me, but I also have some 5" Chubbies, so I don't mind showing a little thigh

Yea, it’s just not my style, but seems like it may be my only option at this point...

I’m 6’5. I really like the 7” hybrid swim gyms from chubbies

I understand, but again, that’s not my style. Need something with a 9 or 10” inseam

Have you tried Birddogs or Lululemon shorts? They are on the expensive side, but both have 9” inseam options.

Northface makes some good all-around athletic shorts.

Just for anybody else who was in the same boat as me, I found a pair of BCG 2 in 1 compression lined workout shorts at academy today. They were $20. They are about a 9” inseam. Really comfy and I swam in them today and they seem functional. From what I can tell they seem similar to the birddog gym shorts, but plainer

Vuori... you’ll never look back. Specifically their “banks” shorts.
