Our Classic Hiking shorts are an iconic part of the Rooster range, being one of the first products brought out. We have developed them overtime with improved fabrics and technology to keep them at the top of their game! They have been designed with 10.5" batten pads at the back of the upper leg, which allow for a good connection with the boat. The battens are made in 3 parts enabling them to shape around the leg for maximum comfort and hiking longevity. Extra padding at the knee pads provides additional comfort whilst a thinner superstretch neoprene is used behind the knee to ensure a comfortable fit on the majority of leg sizes, and when in bent position.
The ¾ length fit finishes just below the knee and these Hikers also work great when worn over PolyPro Leggings or a Thermaflex Long John for when extra warmth is needed, or Rash legs for UV protection.
Top Tip: If you want to extend the life of your classic hiking shorts even further from abrasive decks and improve grip, get some Wear Protection Shorts to wear over the top!
We recommend hand washing in warm soapy water and allowing to air dry.

Great Hikers, feel like they should last a while. I'm 5'10" so bought size S - the fit is snug and the fixed pads are in the perfect place (Europe)
Needed a new set of hikers and just went for the exact same again from Rooster.
Excellent. A better design than the original hikers that I had when Steve first produced them. If the new ones last as long as the old ones they should see me out
I’ve been using Rooster Classic Hikers for 20 years or more. My previous pair are maybe 12 years old and I’ve used them week in, week out through the warmer days. For me they’re a must have garment for dinghy racing. This new pair include some important improvements. The waistline is slightly higher keeping my torso warmer and dryer and the straps and their buckles are more streamlined and easier to adjust, making the hikers much more comfortable. I’m normally a medium, but I bought size small because I know from experience that these hikers feel bigger when they’re wet. I wore them all day for club racing and I’m totally delighted with my purchase.
Excellent service.
