    Default Nike Dry Fit shorts with liner

    Has any worn the Nike DF with the sewn in liner. They seem to be fairly light weight, and cut out the need for underwear.

    I have two pair of the Nike 5" race day shorts but I cut the liner out. I would rather wear underwear that is changable so I can rinse and let dry everyday. The Nike DF 10" shorts have too much material for my liking. BTW I got my shorts at Beals outet for about $10 each. I think they list for something like $40.

    I like the Nike dri fit socks for "basketball" for hiking. They dry super fast and are really comfortable.

    I haven't worn DriFit shorts for hiking, but I do wear them for intense workouts. I actually prefer Adidas CoolCool and ClimaLite gear, as I find that DriFit tends to get very wet and sticky whereas the Adidas products do not feel quite as soaked. They both dry very quickly.

    I do walk in hiking shorts with a liner. I prefer that over separate underwear and find that the mesh liners are easier to wash/rinse/dry, plus they don't tend to bunch up or rub as I've found with various types of wicking underwear.

    I prefer hiking shorts with a liner. You defineltly don't need no stinkin' underwear.

    Used them, like them, but have switched to the Road Runner Sports version since they fit me just a bit better plus ordering from RRS is super easy.

    Kilts the way to go when hiking. Just have to watch how you sit if going comando.

    I used the lastyear for a section. Can you say "chafe"? With compression shorts, however, they were great.
