Rambler Swim Short combines sun protection, quick-dry fabric, and comfort for long days outside

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:


"The PFG Rambler Swim Short is perfect for sunny days on the water. The UPF 50 keeps my skin protected, and the quick-dry, stain-resistant fabric is ideal for fishing or beach days. The elastic waistband and mesh briefs make these shorts super comfortable, even when I’m moving around a lot."


For sunny days spent on the water, the Columbia PFG Rambler 6in Swim Short is our go-to for comfort and protection. Equipped with Omni-Shade™ UPF 50 technology, these shorts shield us from harmful UV rays, while the Omni-Shield™ fabric repels moisture and stains, keeping us clean and dry throughout the day. With an elastic waistband and drawcord adjustment, they offer a secure, comfortable fit that moves with us, whether we’re fishing, swimming, or exploring the shoreline.


The interior mesh briefs add breathable support, while hand pockets and a secure back zipper pocket provide space for small essentials. Built for all-day wear, the PFG Rambler Swim Short is as functional as it is protective, making it perfect for any sun-soaked adventure.

Great color and very comfortable and stylish

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are very good swimming shorts. Great quality and not a bad price. I love the variety of colors they come in. Columbia is always a great brand to buy from I would recommend them.

Comfortable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shorts are super comfortable and fit great! The inner mesh wraps nicely around the thigh and ensures they stay on & the material is extremely soft unlike many other swim trunks I’ve tried where it almost feels like you’re wearing a tarp. Extremely lightweight I can’t wait to use this for all of my summer adventures this year!

they feel very lightweight!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried the de water shorts and they feel very lightweight! Other water shorts feel very heavy once the water in on the shorts but these do not. I love the color. These water shorts are perfect for my florida beach trip with my Family! They also stay adjusted very well because you can pull the adjusting strings and tie a knot. They are very comfortable, they feel lightweight and soft.

Can’t wait for beachy weather!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the Columbia PFG Rambler Water Short! This is stylish enough to wear out casually in the streets of a beach town and its water resistant fabric makes it practical to do so! The material is lightweight and quick drying, which again, is great for a beach day. The mesh inside is loosely fit, making it comfortable and breathable. I do a lot of boating and this is a great choice for that because of its comfort and water resistant fabric. Other features that are a nice touch are the stretchy drawcord to adjust the fit and the pockets with zip enclosure. The material looks durable and appears to be good quality.

Comfy and durable

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly really like these swim trunks. They are loose enough for comfort and flexibility but still flattering to wear. The netting inside is comfortable unlike most swim trunks liners. They do not feel cheap and I like the zipper pocket

Very comfortable high quality swim shorts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very comfortable swim shorts. They fit true to size and are made out of very breathable material. The shorts even look good enough to wear comfortably without being in water.

Light comfortable durable and the color is nice to

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Light comfortable durable and the color is nice too. I'm a sucker for quality bright colors in my swim trunks and these were spot on to my preferences. The interior mesh isn't as tight or restrictive as other swim trunks so there is an element of airiness in the jock area that a lot of trunks don't give you. They breathe almost as if you are wearing regular underwear so that's a big plus.
