Taking a dip from the raft or splashing into the alpine lake, this short is the quick-drying essential for sunny days in and around the water. A water-repellent finish speeds up drying time and its 88% recycled reSphero™ fabric feels smooth yet is durable enough to hold up to the range of on-water ventures. We added a new, quick-drying brief liner to make the short even easier to wear in and out of the water, while UPF 50+ sun protection and four-way stretch provide sunup-to-sundown coverage and mobility. A drawcord waistband allows for the perfect fit and easy on-and-off. Options for 5” and 7” inseams free up choices for style and fit.
reSphero™️ HO is a four-way stretch plainweave poplin made with a blend of recycled polyester and spandex for maximum comfort. Constructed with extremely durable fibers, this sturdy fabric maintains its shape through the push and pull of strenuous activity, while the hydrophobic nature of the fibers allow it to dry quickly. Finished with a PFAS-free WR coating to repel light moisture and promote quick drying.

Make Your Own Mountain Music
Every Stio Mountain Studio dedicates a spot in the corner to a certain guitar—not just any old six-string, but one created by the talented artisans at Taylor Guitars. It’s a tribute both to our founder Sulli’s passion for plucking the strings, and to all the times when music has forged connections across campgrounds and tailgates with friends and strangers alike. Read on to meet each artist and delve into the elements of the local landscapes that inspired their art.Pinecone, Acorn—Or Urban Legend?
Stio's logo has often been a topic for debate, so we took to the streets and slopes with our friends at the Whitebark Pine Ecosystem Foundation to set the record straight. Our logo? It's a Whitebark Pinecone. Check out the deeper story of this humble seed that’s the key to holding together an entire ecosystem.Of Food, Fishing And Freedom
Chef, fly angler and Stio Ambassador Ranga Perera takes us to a few of his favorite moments while filming Flavor On The Fly, from frying up fresh perch on the shores of Lake Champlain, to being guided for the first time by a fellow Person Of Color while fishing in Central Park. It’s a reflection on the ways fishing and food nourish our roots and bring us all together at the same table.
