Product Information
Full details
The Montane Caelum Shorts are designed for female outdoor enthusiasts who require a balance of lightweight performance and durability while on the trail. Engineered with VECTOR Stretch fabric, these shorts provide excellent breathability and unrestricted movement, making them ideal for long hikes or active days outdoors. While they offer superior comfort through a refined gusset and pre-articulated fit, users should note that the regular fit block is optimized specifically for an active stance, which may feel different from casual lifestyle shorts.

Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or stuck
Clean any debris or trail grit from the zipper teeth using a soft brush and ensure the fabric is not caught in the slide.
Fabric appears to be losing stretch
Check if you have used fabric softener, which can leave a residue. Re-wash without softeners to help restore fabric performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Montane Caelum Shorts, follow these maintenance tips:
- Care Instructions: Machine wash in cold or warm water using a mild, non-biological detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the stretch and breathability of the nylon fibers.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying is necessary, use a low-heat setting.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Ensure pockets are emptied and zippers are closed before storage to maintain the structural integrity of the garment.
- Compatibility: The regular fit pairs well with technical baselayers or can be worn directly for maximum ventilation in warmer conditions.
