Are there any shorts out there similar to Patagonia Baggies that are less expensive than the Baggies? Looking for the same style and fit.

Did not see anything made by REI.

They are on sale for $35 until the 27th at REI. I'm picking some up myself.

The 'short' answer is no there is nothing better that is cheaper--based on thirty or so years of searching. The columbia snake rivers are ok and the rei sahara the next best after that--both can often be found on sale. My advice is that for $35 at rei buy two.

The pat. baggies win for me because of the fabric which is durable and dries quickly. They ride up less than any others I've had! The waist fits well without being constrictive and is ok under the pack belt. But my most favorite thing is the pockets that actually hold stuff while you walk, though not as well in the hammock, and keep my hands warm on cold mornings.

How about Columbia Whitbey water short?
