You want to choose shorts that are: ●Made of breathable and quick-drying fabric, such as cotton, nylon, or polyester. Avoid fabrics that are too thick, heavy, or stiff. ●Stretchy and elastic enough to accommodate your movements and body shape. Avoid fabrics that are too tight, loose, or restrictive.

  3. ●Durable and resistant to abrasion and tearing. Avoid fabrics that are too thin, delicate, or prone to pilling. ●Comfortable and fit well around your waist and thighs. Avoid shorts that are too long, short, baggy, or saggy. ●Stylish and match your personal preference and taste. You can choose from different colors, patterns, and designs. Tips for Bouldering in Shorts If you decide to wear shorts when bouldering, here are some tips to make your experience more enjoyable: ●Wear comfortable underwear that won’t chafe or ride up.

You can choose from different types of climbing shoes depending on the shape of your foot, the type of climbing you do, and the level of performance you want. ●Apply sunscreen to protect your skin from sunburns if you are bouldering outdoors. You can choose from different SPF levels depending on your skin type and the intensity of the sun. ●Bring a towel or a mat to wipe off sweat or dirt if you are bouldering indoors.
