Product Information
Full details
The Endura Hummvee Cycling Shorts in Anthracite are designed for male adult cyclists seeking durable and functional shorts for various riding conditions. Their key benefit lies in the robust mini-ripstop fabric with a DWR finish, offering protection from light rain and general wear. A potential consideration is the inclusion of a detachable liner, which might add bulk for riders who prefer to use their own preferred chamois.

FAQs
What is the purpose of the DWR finish?
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish helps water bead up and roll off the fabric, providing protection against light rain and splashes.
Can I remove the padded liner?
Yes, the shorts feature a ClickFast™ detachable liner system, allowing you to remove it and use your own preferred padded shorts or bibs.
How do I clean the shorts?
Machine wash cold (30°C) with mild detergent and similar colours. Do not tumble dry, bleach, or iron. Hang dry in the shade.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
While they have thigh vents, they are made of durable nylon, which may be warmer than lighter, minimalist shorts in extreme heat. They are best suited for moderate to warm conditions.
What kind of padding does the liner have?
The included liner features a 200 series pad, offering a balance of comfort and support for cycling.
How many pockets do the shorts have?
The shorts include zipped hand pockets, cargo pockets, and a large rear map pocket, providing ample storage.
Troubleshooting
Liner detaches during ride
Ensure all ClickFast™ snap buttons are fully secured to the corresponding points inside the waistband of the outer short before riding.
Pockets feel restrictive
Distribute items evenly among the available pockets and avoid overstuffing, especially the zipped hand pockets.
Reduced water repellency
Wash the shorts according to care instructions and consider applying a PFC-free DWR re-treatment spray as per the product's instructions.
Zippers are stiff
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap and water. Ensure they are dry before use. Avoid forcing stiff zippers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: The shorts are designed for male cyclists and are compatible with most cycling chamois if you choose not to use the included liner. The standard fit accommodates most body types.
Care Instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with mild detergent. Wash with similar colours.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang dry in a shaded area.
- DWR Treatment: To maintain water repellency, avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Re-apply a PFC-free DWR treatment after several washes if water no longer beads effectively on the fabric.
- Ironing: Do not iron. If necessary, iron on a very low setting away from any prints or logos.
