FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for downhill mountain biking?

Yes, the Alpinestars A-Dura Liner Shorts are engineered for durability and freedom of movement, making them suitable for all MTB disciplines, including downhill.

Can I wear these shorts without the inner liner?

Absolutely. The inner liner is removable, allowing you to wear the outer shorts with your preferred base layer or on their own.

How do I clean the shorts and the liner?

Machine wash the outer shorts cold with like colors and tumble dry low or hang dry. Machine wash the liner warm with like colors and tumble dry low. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

What is the padding in the liner like?

The removable liner features dual-density chamois padding in the crotch area for enhanced comfort during longer rides. It also includes double foam padding.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The shorts feature a secure double snap closure and side waist adjusters, as well as an adjustable side drawcord. Use these features to achieve a personalized and secure fit that allows for full range of motion.

What material are the shorts made from?

The outer shorts are primarily constructed from Nylon, offering superior durability for the mountain biking environment.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose at the waist.

Utilize the double snap closure and the side waist adjuster to customize the fit. Experiment with different settings to find the most comfortable and secure option for your body type and riding style.

Chamois liner causes discomfort.

Ensure the liner is correctly positioned. If discomfort persists, consider using the shorts without the liner and with your preferred cycling base layer. The liner is designed for dual-density comfort but may not suit all rider anatomies.

Pockets do not feel secure.

Ensure the zippers are fully closed after placing items in the pockets. The mesh lining provides breathability, but the primary security comes from the fully zipped closure.

Material feels stiff after washing.

Avoid using fabric softeners during washing. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry. The fabric will soften with continued use.
