FAQs
Are these shorts padded?
No, the Madison Roam Stretch Shorts are unpadded, though the silicone waist grip is designed to keep a separate liner short in place.
Can I wear these for casual wear?
Yes, they feature a tailored cut and style that looks like standard lifestyle shorts when off the bike.
How do I clean the shorts?
Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach, and air dry to protect the DWR finish.
Is the phone pocket secure?
The phone pocket is zippered and positioned in the side seam to minimize movement and ensure your device stays safe during technical sections.
Are they waterproof?
They feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating which sheds light rain and trail spray, but they are not fully waterproof.
What is the fit like?
They have a tailored, modern fit with a shorter inseam for better movement on the bike.
Troubleshooting
Waistband slipping down during ride
Tighten the built-in webbed belt and ensure the silicone print is in direct contact with your liner short or base layer.
Water soaking through the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off; apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment specifically designed for technical apparel.

- Versatile design transitions easily from the trail to the street

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, utilize the built-in webbed belt to cinch the waist to your preference before snapping the pop stud. Because these shorts feature a silicone grip print on the internal waistband, they are highly compatible with most standard cycling liner shorts. When washing, use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent to preserve the DWR coating. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the pores of the technical fabric and reduce breathability. Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the stretch material.
