Durable Water Repellent
DWR (Durable Water Repellent) is a coating that is applied to fabrics which makes them water-resistant, or hydrophobic. A DWR finish doesn't interfere with breathability, which makes it perfect for adverse conditions in the backcountry.
The North Face FlashDry
FlashDry enables the user to stay drier and more comfortable in a wide range of weather conditions and environments. It doesn't add weight or bulk and never washes or wears out. FlashDry will accelerate evaporation so you can dry off quicker.

Great shorts, but not mini[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts would be five-star if the rear was consistent with the front. They seem designed for very heavily pear-shaped women. I've got glutes and still find the back way too long and large. I have to roll the waist once, and then the fit is good in the back (thought the front gets a little short). I would not normally keep something I have to roll, but these shorts are great minus the over-generous rear... which could come in handy as a mud flap, if I need to sit down somewhere I'd rather not sit. TNF, next time make the "mini" mini throughout please.

Very comfortable but runs big[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got a large as I'm usually a large or x large depending on the sizing (small waist, large hips). I could have used a medium in this

Stylish and Cool- excellent shorts[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are great for being stylish in the heat- the material wicks sweat while still looking cute. They're super comfy, breezy and high quality. I really enjoy them. A few notes: although they are called Mini they are the longest pair of North Face shorts I own. And I wonder why there is only a pocket in the back. It works well but I am a bit fan of real pockets.

HOW to MEASURE WAIST: Place your hands on your hips and bend to the side. The indent on your side as you bend is your natural waist. Measure the total circumference at this point.
JEANS WAIST: Measure your circumference at a point about 2 inches below the belly button.
HIPS: Stand with your feet 6" apart. Measure the total circumference at the fullest point of your hip.
INSEAM: Stand with your feet 6" apart. Measure from the top of the leg/crotch to below the ankle. Or take a pair of pants that fit well and take the same measurement.
FIT TYPES SLIM FIT: Slim in the seat and close-to-body throughout. A straight side seam runs through the hip and thigh. Pants will be narrow through the leg, with a moderate taper from mid-thigh down.
STANDARD FIT: Trim, but not tight, in the seat with an ease through the hip and thigh. Pants will be narrow through the leg with a moderate taper from mid-thigh down.
RELAXED FIT: Has a generous fit in the seat and is roomy through the hip and thigh. Ease through leg with a slight taper from mid-thigh down.
