Eddie Bauer Men's Rainier Shorts - Black Rainier, Size 36 | 2-Way Stretch, Water-Repellent, UPF 50+

Overview

Designed for high performance and all-day comfort, Eddie Bauer's Rainier Shorts blend a two-way stretch nylon/spandex fabric with a water-repellent finish. The lightweight, flexible build moves with you on trail or town and helps you stay comfortable in varying conditions.

The fabric is 94% nylon and 6% spandex, chosen for mobility and durability, while a StormRepel DWR finish sheds moisture so you can focus on the moment rather than the weather. The waistband incorporates Polygiene odor-control technology, helping keep things feeling fresh on longer trips. Add FreeShade 50+ UPF sun protection, and you have a short that’s ready for sun-drenched ridges and shaded canyons alike.
