Outdoor Voices has become a new go-to brand for me. I got these shorts for my daughter to use when running and exercising. They're comfortable and not flimsy. They allow for freedom of movement but still provide good coverage and modesty. Clearly a well-made product.

Outdoor Voices Girls Rectrek Shorts are high quality shorts for young girls. These shorts are ideal for school, leisure, or outdoor fun. Material is made of stretchy blend material that feels as if it's stain resistant (time will tell). Zippered pockets are also a nice added feature.

These girls shorts are absolutely fantastic. They are lightweight and not too bulky. They are great for hiking outdoor activities as well as school. They are made extremely well and also feature a functional drawstring if you wanted to size up and zippered pockets I Would definitely recommend these shorts

These kids' shorts are a mixed bag, with some solid wins and a few noticeable downsides. If sun protection and quick-dry performance are your top priorities, these shorts are worth considering. But if your child cares most about comfort and softness, you might want to explore other options or use these primarily for outdoor or water-related activities.

These are better than expected! I got them for my daughter to wear camping/hiking. The material seems like water would roll off. They are not very thick but not see through at all and seem like they will stand up well to outdoor wear. The zipper pockets are nice and deep. I like the loose fit in the legs. I do think they run a little on the large side.

These are cute shorts but they feel very stiff. My daughter didn't care for them. I got the dark blue. I do like that it has pockets that can be zipped and even though the material feels stiff it seems like it could be great outdoor clothes for hiking.

I can not say enough about these the material is nice not to stiff but some stiffness to it it feels like it could water resistant somewhat very cute design the pockets are big and it has extra material to help it expand gotta get some in every color

These shorts aren't what we thought they would be. The material was very rough. Almost stiff and not comfortable. My daughter does not want to wear them. The waistband is also very big and bulky. Will leave the imprints on skin if too snug. I would not recommend.

These shorts will be great for hiking and outdoor activites. My daughter loved the texture. They seem high quality and are made of Heavy duty material like Columbia or Patagonia. They do run a bit big. She regularly wears size 10, and these are 10/12 and quite big around the waist and legs. We could probably still get away with a 7/8 in the short term.

I was super exited for these shorts to arrive for my daughter. They are cute for casual shorts. The reason for the lower rating is the material is stiff and the texture is unique. The other reason is the sizing is extremely large. We got a size 10/12 and it fits me who typically wears sz 2 in women's.
