FAQs

Are these pants suitable for very cold weather?

The Fox Flexair Pant is designed for breathability and lightweight performance, making it best suited for mild to warm conditions. For cold weather, layering or a warmer pant would be recommended.

Can I wear knee pads under these pants?

Yes, the pants are designed to be compatible with knee pads. However, due to the slim-tapered fit, bulkier knee pads might feel snug. It's recommended to try them on with your preferred pads.

How do I adjust the fit of the waistband?

The pants feature a race ratchet closure. Pull the strap to tighten and press the release lever to loosen. This allows for easy, on-the-fly adjustments.

What is the primary benefit of the increased rise?

The increased rise is designed to improve the on-bike fit, ensuring the pants stay securely in place and provide better coverage during aggressive riding positions.

How durable are these lightweight pants?

The pants are constructed with a durable ripstop polyester and reinforced in key areas. While designed for aggressive riding, extreme impacts or abrasion could potentially damage the lightweight materials over time.

How should I clean the pants to maintain their features?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Hang dry or tumble dry on low. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to preserve the moisture-wicking and DWR properties.

What does 'TruMotion all-way stretch' mean?

TruMotion refers to a fabric that stretches in all directions (lengthwise and widthwise), providing maximum freedom of movement and flexibility on the bike, especially during technical maneuvers.

Troubleshooting

Pants feel too tight or restrictive.

Ensure the race ratchet closure is loosened. If the issue persists, the slim-tapered fit may not be suitable for your body type; consider trying a different model or size if possible.

Waistband slips down during riding.

Tighten the race ratchet closure. Ensure the bonded waistband is properly seated on your waist. Clean the waistband area if it's excessively dirty or slick.

Pockets do not securely hold items.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. For very small items, consider using a small pouch or bag within the pocket. These pockets are designed for secure storage but may not be suitable for extremely heavy or bulky items.

Reduced water or dirt repellency.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time. Reapply a DWR treatment after washing according to the product's instructions (often found on the treatment's packaging).
