Product Information
Full details
The Madison Roam Stretch Shorts are designed for adult female mountain bikers who demand a versatile garment that transitions seamlessly from technical trail riding to casual social settings. These shorts provide the key benefit of high-performance 4-way stretch fabric and water-repellent protection without the bulk of traditional baggy cycling gear. While they offer excellent mobility and secure storage, users should note that they are unpadded, meaning they may require a separate padded liner or bib short for long-distance comfort on the saddle.

Troubleshooting
Shorts sliding down during rides
Tighten the integrated webbed belt using the metal adjuster and ensure the silicone grip print is clean and in contact with your base layer.
Water soaking into the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off; use a technical garment re-proofer spray to restore the water-repellent properties.
Difficulty accessing phone pocket
Ensure the zipper track is kept clean of mud or debris to maintain smooth operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure the integrated webbed belt is cinched to your preference before starting your ride to prevent movement during technical sections. These shorts are compatible with any standard MTB liner or chamois short if extra cushioning is desired. When caring for the garment, machine wash on a cold cycle to protect the integrity of the technical fabric and the DWR coating. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the material and reduce breathability. Air drying is highly recommended to extend the lifespan of the synthetic fibers and the silicone grip print inside the waistband.
