Built for Every Leg of the Journey
The Roark Layover Trail Short is the hybrid adventure short that refuses to be pigeonholed. With a 17-inch outseam and 4-way stretch construction, it moves with you from trailhead to waterfront without skipping a beat. The 95% nylon, 5% elastane fabric dries fast and holds its shape through long travel days, back-country hikes, and anything else the itinerary throws at you.
Construction and Features
Roark engineered this short around real-world use. The drawstring closure waistband with zipper fly gives you a secure, adjustable fit without the rigidity of a traditional waistband. Two front zip pockets lock down your essentials during active movement. A back patch pocket with button closure handles the extras, while a dedicated stash pocket at the back yoke keeps your phone within reach without bouncing around. Side vents at the hem add mobility and airflow when the pace picks up.
The Roark Philosophy
Roark is built on the idea that adventure does not follow a schedule. The brand follows an idealized figure named Roark, his travels stitched into a timeless line of apparel that spans every category of outdoor and water-focused life. Every piece is designed to carry that spirit forward: functional enough for performance, versatile enough for the road.
