FAQs
Do these shorts come with a chamois liner?
No, these are shell shorts and do not include a liner.
Can I use these for other sports besides mountain biking?
While designed for MTB, their breathable, lightweight nature makes them suitable for hiking or other outdoor activities.
How do I wash them?
Machine wash on cold/gentle cycle and hang to dry to protect the technical features.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the hand pockets are deep and zippered to securely hold modern smartphones.
Do the reflective logos fade over time?
Like any heat-transferred graphic, they may show wear after extensive heavy-duty washing, but they are designed to be durable.
Troubleshooting
Waistband slipping while riding
Ensure the Velcro adjusters are tightened appropriately and check that the interior silicone grippers are clean and free of mud/debris.
Shorts feel too tight during movement
Adjust the Velcro straps to allow for more room and ensure your base layer/chamois is not adding unnecessary bulk.
DWR treatment no longer repelling water
The DWR coating can wear off over time; consider reapplying a fabric-safe DWR spray after a thorough cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Troy Lee Designs shorts, use the integrated Velcro waist adjusters to achieve a snug fit over your preferred undergarments or chamois liner. The silicone grippers will help lock the waistband in place once adjusted. For maintenance, machine wash in cold water using a gentle cycle with a technical detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can compromise the DWR coating and moisture-wicking capabilities. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the integrity of the elastic panels and reflective logos.
