Patagonia Nine Trails Shorts 8 inch, with liner. XS size, 2013 model. The waist has a loop-type elastic drawstring. It's not the type that you tie with a typical string. There are three pockets: one on the back and one on each side. They can hold about the same amount as energy gels, and they are not big enough for recent iPhone sizes. The reflective "patagonia" lettering on the left leg hem has peeled off. Overall, there is a feeling of use, but there are no noticeable damages such as fabric tears, and there are no problems with use. Please understand that this is a used item before purchasing.
