FAQs

What is the inseam length for regular and tall sizes?

The regular inseam is 30.5 inches, and the tall inseam is 32.5 inches.

Are these pants waterproof?

No, the pants feature a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, which helps shed moisture and light rain but they are not fully waterproof.

Can I wear padded bike shorts underneath?

Yes, the pants are designed to be worn over padded cycling shorts. The sizing is generally accommodating for this, though the slim fit should be considered.

What does '85% recycled materials' mean for the fabric?

The primary fabric used in these pants is made from at least 85% recycled sources, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process without compromising durability or performance.

How do I adjust the waist closure?

The pants feature a race ratchet closure. You can tighten or loosen it on the fly by using the ratchet mechanism integrated into the waistband for a secure and customized fit.

Can I use these pants for activities other than mountain biking?

Yes, the comfortable fit and versatile design make them suitable for other outdoor activities or casual wear, aligning with their 'on and off the bike' versatility.

Troubleshooting

Zipper becomes difficult to use

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a small amount of mild soap and water. Ensure no debris is caught in the track. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or specialized zipper lubricant if needed.

DWR finish seems less effective after multiple washes

Reactivate the DWR finish by tumble drying on low heat for 20-30 minutes. For a more thorough rejuvenation, consider using a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment specifically designed for outdoor apparel.

Pants feel restrictive during aggressive riding

Ensure the correct size has been selected. Check that the waist closure is properly adjusted for optimal fit. The four-way stretch fabric is designed for mobility, so significant restriction may indicate an incorrect size or fit preference.
