Description
What makes it special?
Houdini has been making functional insulation garments since the start in 1993. We know the difference our “spot insulation” garments can make and Men's Moonwalk Shorts is the perfect example. A pair of insulation shorts might not be what you think of when you pack for a winter adventure, but when you start using them you will wonder how you could have lived without them before. Men's Moonwalk Shorts are an upgraded version of the popular Moonwalk Shorties with fully circular fabrics and a fit more suitable to wear over tights or long johns.
How does it work?
Men's Moonwalk Shorts are made from Polartec® Power Air™ Active, a fantastic fleece fabric. It’s light, stretchy and durable. The special construction with encapsulated filament fibers reduces microfiber shedding by 80%. The garment has insulation panels padded with PrimaLoft® Gold Active+, a warm, lightweight synthetic padding made from 55% recycled fibers. The combination of fabrics make a light, stretchy and very comfortable layering garment for cold days.
What should I use it for?
Men's Moonwalk Shorts are the ultimate garment to layer over a base layer underneath the shell pants on a cold day in the ski slopes. You can also wear it over a pair of running tights on frosty days on the trails. We can recommend Men's Moonwalk Shorts to anyone that needs a little (a lot actually) extra heat on any winter adventure.
This garment is recyclable and we kindly ask you to return it to Houdini at the end of its lifetime. We can use the materials to create new products, eliminate waste and save our planet’s precious resources. Houdini recycling units can be found in all Houdini stores and at many retailers.

Care instructions
Synthetic materials
When washing clothes made of synthetic fabrics, the use of a washing bag becomes even more important: It prevents microplastics from entering into rivers and oceans.
- Air clothes instead of washing to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer.
- Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
- Machine wash, max 40 °C/104 °F.
- Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose.
- Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
- Tumble dry on low heat.
- Iron on low heat.
Sustainability
Circular
The Circular label means that this product is made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.
Recycled
The Recycled label means that this garment contains at least 50% recycled fibers (often more, see product description). The source is either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. Besides the production impact, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.
Recyclable
The Recyclable label means that the raw material in this product can be used for new products, instead of becoming waste. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from reycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.
