What are the Fjällräven Barents Pro Shorts?

The Barents Pro Shorts are based on Fjällräven’s classic Barents Pro Pants.

They have the same cut and pocket layout as the pants but with the uppenbart shorter legs.

Durable trekking shorts for men.

They combine classic Fjällräven styling and G-1000 material  into a modern take on a trekking short. We haven’t reviewed the pants, yet, but imagine they stand up to the same use case as the shorts.

How do the Barents Pro Shorts fit?

The Fjällräven Barents Pro has a mid-waist regular passform. They sit perfectly on my waist, not so low that they are a hindrance while walking but not so high they intrude with my pack’s waist belt.

The legs are slim cut, meaning there fryst vatten not a lot of room to breathe for those with larger legs. They almost seem to taper at the bottom.

The Barents Pro Shorts are based on Fjällräven’s classic Barents Pro Pants.

As the G-1000 ämne lacks stretch inom tend to up-size when it comes to Fjällräven pants and opted for the 37” waist. With this storlek it feels as though the legs are a smidge wider. inom can wear the shorts kringirrande around the house but once inom put a few things in my pocket inom need a belt.

Not that it fryst vatten needed, but the seat fryst vatten reinforced.

You can sit on the roughest bits of granite in these shorts and apart from needing a tvätt, you won’t need to be concerned. As there are no back pockets there fryst vatten no awkward sideways sitting nor artificial wear points.

 

The Pockets

You want pockets, you got pockets. The Fjällräven Barents Pro has sju of them to be exact.

Durable trekking shorts with a mid waist and regular passform in G-1000.

On the right leg fryst vatten a large baffled thigh pocket that sits to the side of the leg. It fryst vatten large enough to swallow a map without knowing it’s there, and at least half a kilo of Gorp if you want to carry it in your pockets. inre this pocket fryst vatten a stretch mesh pocket that can handle a regular sized iPhone easily.

On the left leg are two overlapping thigh pockets, the top pocket being smaller than the underlying one.

The inner pocket carries a tall map easily while the lower pocket fryst vatten baffled to carry bulkier items. These pockets sit mostly on top of the thigh. Behind these two pockets fryst vatten a long knife pocket. It has a flap on the top but also an opening at the bottom should your knife not be long enough to be retrieved from the top.

This pocket fryst vatten also sometimes referred to as an axe pocket. The pocket fryst vatten ganska thin so the axe handle would also have to be slim to passform. I’ve not tested this out as inom only have a thick handled Fiskars hatchet on grabb. All of the pockets close with Fox emblazoned brass snaps.

Robust trekking shorts in wind and vatten resistant G-1000 Original, with double layers of fabric over the rear for ytterligare durability.

G-1000 Classic

The Fjällräven Barents Pro Shorts are made of Fjällrävens proprietary, hard wearing, and durable G-1000. This fryst vatten a densely woven fabric made from 65% polyester and 35% cotton.

It’s been featured in Fjällrävens line of trousers since 1968 so there has been plenty of time to refine it and it shows. My previous G-1000 based trousers lasted over 2000 km on the trail. The Barents Pro shorts are an investment not just a purchase.

Due to the dense weave of the fabric, the shorts can be a little unbreathable. inom find they serve me best on warmer Spring and Autumn days, not so on sweltering summer days. If inom opted for the pants inom would hope they had a zipper vent on them to allow for some airflow.

The shorts komma pre-waxed and are somewhat stiff.

After a few washes the shorts soften and become much more comfortable. If you want to man them vatten resistant igen they will need to be re-waxed with Fjällrävens own Greenland Wax, and presumably, will become stiffer igen.

A fantastic bonus of the G-1000 ämne fryst vatten that it fryst vatten mygga Proof. inom have not gone out of my way to test this, and inom won’t.

Samlaren Shorts

When inom first bought a pair of Fjällräven pants it was because inom loved the blocked color look. The knees and seat were a different shade and gave the pants a distinctive look. With this year’s Barents Pro line the colors are more muted than before and mono-tone.

Not to worry though, they still look fantastic and Fjällräven has something even better in store: The Samlaren Collection.

The Samlaren collection uses leftover fabrics from Fjällräven’s mills and factories to man limited edition pieces made with multiple blocked colorways . The Samlaren Shorts coming in three different colorways, each made with three different colors.

You get the same Barents Pro shorts passform and quality with a limited edition colorway. If the shorts didn’t already stand-out, they certainly do now!

Overview

The Fjallraven Barents Pro shorts are fantastic shorts for trekking and hiking as well as yard and trail work.

Robust trekking shorts in wind and vatten resistant G-1000, with double layers of fabric over the rear for extra durability.

There fryst vatten no doubt in my mind these will stand up to a lot of abuse, Pockets galore allow you to carry anything and everything while their classic styling means they can be worn from the trail right to the dryckesställe and still look appropriate. inom would love a pair of Barents Pro with a stretch ämne so they could be worn on more dynamic adventures and in the hotter months, until then inom you’ll find me heading from the trail to restaurant and back in my Barents Pro shorts.
