MAGCOMSEN Women's Hiking Shorts 8-inch

Women looking for lightweight shorts for warm-weather hikes, golf, or travel may appreciate the quick-drying fabric and adjustable waist here.

Three zippered pockets give small essentials a more secure place than open pockets do.

The trade-off is that the product details don't include garment measurements, so exact fit is hard to judge without that measurement.

Technical details

These are women's 8-inch hiking shorts made from lightweight, breathable, quick-drying fabric. The fabric is described as water-resistant, which points to help with light moisture—not full protection in steady rain or a guarantee that the shorts stay dry in wet conditions. They have two front zipper pockets and one rear zipper pocket, plus an elastic waistband with a drawstring for an adjustable feel.

That setup favors practical outdoor wear over a minimalist pair with fewer pockets or a fixed waistband. It suits you if you want to keep a phone and a few small belongings close while walking, traveling, or moving between activities. Pocket dimensions and fabric composition aren't specified, so don't assume every phone or personal item will fit comfortably.

Getting the most from it

These shorts are presented for hiking and other outdoor activities, including golf, camping, travel, climbing, running, and fishing. For a day hike, the zip pockets can help keep a phone and small essentials from slipping out when you bend to adjust a pack or step over uneven ground. The quick-drying fabric and breathable feel also make them a plausible choice for warm days when heavy, slow-drying bottoms would be less comfortable.

The elastic waist and drawstring offer some flexibility as you move, but they don't replace checking the size information for your preferred fit. Since no size chart or garment measurements are included in the details here, shoppers who need a precise waist or leg fit should look for that information before choosing. Water resistance is another boundary: these are better suited to light moisture than to prolonged rain or conditions that call for waterproof clothing.

Usage tips

Use the zipper pockets for items you want to keep contained, and check that each zipper is fully closed before heading onto a trail. Keep valuables that need more protection in a waterproof pouch if rain is expected, the shorts are described as water-resistant, not waterproof. For golf, travel, or casual wear, the drawstring lets you adjust the waistband, while the breathable, quick-drying fabric is aimed at active use in warm weather.

The product description doesn't specify fabric care, stretch, or a tested water-resistance level. If those details matter for your routine, treat them as unanswered rather than assuming performance beyond what's stated. Compared with basic pull-on shorts, the three zip pockets add storage security, compared with technical rain pants, these shorts offer less coverage and aren't presented as a rain barrier.

Before you decide

Are these shorts waterproof? No waterproof rating is given. The description says the fabric helps repel light moisture, so plan for limited water resistance rather than protection in heavy rain.

How many pockets are included? There are three zipper pockets: two in front and one at the rear. Their dimensions aren't listed.

Can you adjust the waist? The waistband is elastic and includes a drawstring, allowing some adjustment. The supplied details don't provide measurements or a size chart.

Buying verdict

Choose these MAGCOMSEN shorts if you want an active, warm-weather style with quick-drying fabric, an adjustable drawstring waist, and zippered storage for hikes or everyday outdoor use. The pocket layout is a practical step up from simple shorts with open pockets. Skip them if you need waterproof protection, specific fabric or care details, or a precise fit that you can't confirm from the available sizing information.
