About Us


Our gear is designed for the enthusiastic amateur and professional alike.

Burro makes rugged, comfortable shorts that are equally at home on the trail or a zoom call. The Burro holy lands are the Blue Ridge Mountains (Charlottesville), Taos, the Florida Keys, and Teton Valley. We embrace the spirit of everyday adventure and the enthusiastic amateur and professional alike. We know that a work day can end at a spring-fed swimming hole or a local brewery.

To us, the burro represents our stubborn commitment to making the most rugged and reliable pair of shorts you will own. So make Burro your trusty partner in chasing adventure every day. 

Founded by graduate students at the University of Virginia, Shockley Nunnery, Casey Ward, and Stephen Ramon, we believe in products that are deeply rooted in quality, authenticity, and friendship.
