FAQs
Are these shorts padded?
This specific model is the standard shell; while they are highly versatile, check for 'Lined' versions if you require integrated chamois padding.
How do I determine my size?
These shorts use standard UK dress sizing. Refer to the manufacturer's size guide to match your waist measurement to the corresponding UK size number.
Can I wear these in heavy rain?
The DWR finish is designed for light moisture and mud. They are not fully waterproof, so they will eventually soak through in prolonged, heavy downpours.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
They fit most standard-sized smartphones, but large 'plus-size' or 'pro-max' devices may feel bulky or uncomfortable while pedaling.
Do these shorts require special washing?
Use a gentle cycle with non-biological detergent and avoid fabric softeners to keep the synthetic fabric performance high.
Troubleshooting
Ratchet closure is difficult to adjust
Ensure no grit or dirt is trapped in the buckle mechanism; clean with a soft brush and water if necessary.
Water and mud are soaking through the fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off; reapply a specialized DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Shorts feel too tight during pedaling
Check your size against the UK sizing chart provided and ensure the hip stretch panels are not being pulled taut by a base layer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, utilize the race-ratchet closure to tighten the waist until the shorts feel secure but not restrictive against your skin. Because these shorts feature a DWR coating, proper care is essential to maintain their water-shedding properties. Machine wash them on a gentle cycle with a technical fabric detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the material. Always hang dry the shorts to protect the integrity of the synthetic nylon and the DWR finish.
