Light, stretchy shorts for summer trekking
Salewa says:
Engineered in the Dolomites and ideal for summer use in the mountains – the versatile Talveno is a wind-resistant and fast-drying hiking/ trekking short.
Made from Salewa’s lightweight Durastretch softshell fabric that has 4-way stretch, the tailored regular trekking fit works together with the stretch fabric to give full freedom of movement.
The two zipped hand pockets and single zipped back pocket secure your essentials, whilst the ergonomic adjustable waistband with snap button and belt loops works comfortably with a backpack.
This product is made with bluesign®-approved fabric, which means that it was monitored from the factory to the final product and is subject to strict auditing to guarantee that it is harmless to the human environment.
The Puez Talveno are our go-to trekking shorts.
Our Verdict
The Salewa Puez Talveno DST Shorts are lightweight softshell shorts for walking, trekking and travel in warmer conditions. At 142g (Medium), they are light and easy to wear, with Durastretch fabric that moves well on steeper paths and dries quickly.
Salewa was founded in Munich in 1935 and is now based in Bolzano, in the South Tyrolean Dolomites. That alpine background is clear here in a simple mountain short built around movement, low weight and practical weather resistance rather than unnecessary bulk.
I like the regular fit, as it gives easy comfort without feeling too loose or overly technical. The adjustable waistband works well under a pack, while the two zipped hand pockets and zipped rear pocket give secure storage for small essentials.
