FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for long-distance road cycling?
While designed for trail performance, their lightweight and moisture-managing properties make them suitable for fitness-focused road cycling. For very long distances, some riders may prefer additional padding from a cycling chamois.
Can I wear these without an underlayer?
Yes, these shorts are designed to be worn directly against the skin. They feature moisture management to keep you comfortable. However, many cyclists prefer to wear a padded cycling chamois underneath for added comfort on longer rides.
How do I determine the right size?
Refer to the Karrimor sizing guide available on the product page or brand website. It is recommended to measure your waist and compare it to the chart. If you are between sizes, consider your preference for a tighter or looser fit.
What is the primary benefit of the mesh paneling?
The mesh paneling is strategically placed to enhance breathability and ventilation, helping to keep you cool and dry by allowing air to circulate and heat to escape during strenuous activity.
Are these shorts waterproof?
No, these shorts are not waterproof. They are designed with breathable, moisture-wicking technical fabric to manage sweat and keep you comfortable, not to repel external water.
What material are these shorts made of?
The shorts are made from lightweight technical fabric with breathable mesh paneling, optimized for moisture management and freedom of movement during cycling.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too loose
Tighten the internal drawcord for a more secure fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided size chart.
Fabric not drying quickly
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners during washing. Check that the shorts are not packed too tightly in the washing machine, allowing for proper rinsing and water extraction.
Discomfort or chafing during ride
Adjust the fit using the drawcord. Consider wearing a cycling chamois underneath for added padding and to reduce friction.
Mesh panels feel restrictive
Ensure the shorts are the correct size. The mesh panels are designed for breathability and should not feel restrictive if the fit is appropriate.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Karrimor Trail Performance Cycling Shorts:
- Washing: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent.
- Detergent: Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of technical fabrics and reduce their moisture-wicking capabilities.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid direct sunlight for extended periods, as it can degrade fabric over time.
- Ironing: Do not iron. The heat can damage the technical fibers.
