FAQs
Do these shorts come with a chamois liner?
No, these shorts are sold as an outer shell only and do not include an integrated padded liner.
Can I wear these with knee pads?
Yes, the shorts feature a relaxed fit specifically designed to accommodate most standard mountain bike knee pads.
Are they waterproof?
They feature a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating which provides protection from light rain and spray, but they are not fully waterproof.
How should I wash these shorts?
Wash on a cool, gentle cycle without fabric softener to protect the water-resistant finish and synthetic material.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
The pockets are designed for secure storage of trail essentials, though fitment depends on the size of your smartphone case.
Troubleshooting
Water repellency is fading over time
Reactivate the DWR coating by tumble drying on a low heat setting or use a technical fabric re-proofer spray.
Zippers feeling stiff or sticking
Clean any grit or mud out of the zipper teeth using a soft brush and consider applying a dry silicone lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Altura Kielder shorts, ensure you choose the correct size for your waist. Since these shorts do not come with an inner liner, pair them with your preferred cycling bib or liner shorts for maximum comfort on long rides. For maintenance, machine wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the DWR coating. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can strip away the water-resistant properties. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the technical fabric's structure and performance over time.
