FAQs
Does this product include a padded liner?
No, the Troy Lee Designs Ruckus MTB Shorts are a shell-only product and do not come with an integrated chamois liner.
Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?
Yes, they feature laser-perforated rear detailing and a breathable mesh stretch panel, making them ideal for high-temperature rides.
What does Bluesign approved mean?
It means the materials used in the production of these shorts meet strict sustainability and safety standards for the environment and the workers.
How do I ensure the correct fit?
Use a measuring tape to find your exact waist measurement in inches. The TLD Ruckus shorts are sized according to standard UK/US waist measurements.
Can I use these for other sports like hiking?
While designed for mountain biking, their durable and breathable fabric makes them suitable for various outdoor activities, though they are specifically cut for a cycling position.
Troubleshooting
Waist feels too tight during long climbs
Adjust the low-profile button closure. Ensure the shirt tucked inside the shorts is thin, as excessive layers under the waistband may cause discomfort.
Fabric snagging on trail debris
Check that the shorts are properly fitted; loose fabric is more prone to snags. If a minor tear occurs, use a technical fabric repair patch to prevent it from fraying further.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Troy Lee Designs Ruckus shorts, follow these guidelines:
- Sizing: Ensure you select your standard waist size. The double button enclosure allows for a secure, low-profile fit.
- Cleaning: Machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade the technical properties of the synthetic fabric.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If using a machine, use a low heat setting. Never iron or dry clean the shorts.
- Compatibility: These shorts are designed to be worn over any standard MTB cycling liner. The internal waist area is smooth to ensure no irritation when used with independent padded shorts.
