Is the over all length of the shorts, shortens when waist line is decreased in size? Meaning 30 and a 32 in have the same length?

Mine are a little shorter than I usually like. They stop right at the knees and I would like them to go just a little past. But since they are really meant to be tactical it makes sense that they would allow for better running and such. I think the length is proportional to the waist number.

I only got the one size so I don't know for sure...sorry. These are good looking shorts with high quality zippers/snaps. But they are a little pricey. If you can get them for a good price you will not be disappointed.

Yes, they are all the same length. There is also a longer version that is 11". Great shorts, have bought many pair.

They are in different lengths. I got the biggest one so that if my waist size changes I just adjust the belt accordingly. You can always cut it and make it shorter. Used it a week ago for the first time and had a hard time getting it to stay tight though as the buckle kept slipping.

Yes. I have noted that the length is not really true to size. A 32" inseam looked like high waters on me. I bought two pairs at two different times and vendors with the same result.... Maybe they aren't supposed to have the length of the taclites, but whatever it is, it's noticeable. I don't wear them because of this.

Probably defect... My husband wears a 32 waist in jeans, and he's had two pairs of these pants in a 32 waist that both fit the same... Just a bit roomier than a 32 jean. (He tried to go down to a 30, but that was much too snug.)

I am thin and have a 30 waist and am 5'9'.I find the small snug the way I feel they should fit and slightly long.So I would think you should go with the 34 waist and hope the length will be long enough.

Hi, I am also short, I am 5' 6" and 30 waist in US. The short fit good, I thought the front lid/tongue was a bit bulky. All in all the short is very comfortable. I hope I helped you.

According to the prAna fit guide a 32 is a Small. I am a 31 in the waist and ordered the Small... it is a bit big in the waist for me, but I like it a bit low on my waist. I would recommend a Small, but you might be OK with a Medium. Note: there are no belt loops (but there is an adjustable cinch which could help tighten the pants but I wouldn't rely on it).

Size is selectable when you order. I have a 32" waist and the Medium fits me just fine, as it should from the size indication of 30" to 36".

I'm also 5'8" 34" waist and 30 inseam. Bought the large, they fit my waist comfortably. Excess length is not an issue.

Sorry, I read your info wrong. However, I went from a 36 to a 33-34 and these shorts are one material and the Velcro makes up the flexible size you'll need. I will say a 30 in this short will definitely work.

It seems to be the smaller the pant, the shorter the inseam. I started out with a large and the inseam was good but I need the pant to go over jeans as I am using them as rain riding pants for my motorcycle. Now I have an extra large and if I am walking they are too long.

No really for sure but I have a size 30 inch waist and the strings wrap around me twice. Hope that helps.

Here is the waist size listings for the Men's Backcountry shorts from the Royal Robbins website: S = 30" M = 32" - 33" L = 34" - 36" XL = 38" - 40" XXL = 42" - 44" Could not find a length measurement on the website

Hi Peter, Can't answer that for you. Myself, I am a 33 waist by 34 Long. My order was Medium in waist and 34 Long. I believe their is enough waist play after me wearing mine with the elastic waist band to help give you the comfort you need. These are my second pair and I really like them for comfort and hiking.

I just measured mine. The stretch is almost 4 inches in total circumference. Now that is starting out completely slack, and going to complete stretch, so keep that in mind. My 34s are about 33 when slack, and 36 1/2 when stretched. Logically the 30 would have less stretch. As far as the pocket goes, I love them. Both sides are the same depth and they go down to the top of the cargo pocket. Any lower and there would be interference issues. There is a reason that these pants are so well loved. If they offered them in an 11 inch inseam, I'd own a ton of them. At 6'2" the inseam is too short and my wife hates the way they look. I still love them for their comfort and versatility, so I wear them when she's not around. I just measured mine. The stretch is almost 4 inches in total circumference.

I am 1 inch shorter than you and my waist is 32. The size I purchased is Small/Medium and was the right size for me. It fits many waist sizes and we are about in the middle.

My husband wears a 36X36 and the waist is perfect but the length is short. My guess is that they are more like 33" inseam. I even let the hem out and they are still short hitting mid ankle.
