Product Information

Full details

These Fox Ranger Lined Shorts are designed for young male riders aged kids hitting the trails. The key benefit is excellent freedom of movement and durability thanks to the technical stretch ripstop fabric and a DWR finish that repels dirt and moisture. A potential caveat is the specific sizing for children, requiring careful measurement. These shorts feature recycled, moisture-wicking fabric, a removable inner lining, two zippered pockets, and a race-ratchet closure for a secure fit, making them ideal for unhindered trail biking.

FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for very young children (e.g., toddlers)?

These shorts are designed for children, specifically in a 'kids' age group. Please refer to the size guide and ensure the Size 2 (UK) fits your child appropriately. They are intended for active riding.

How do I adjust the fit of the shorts?

The shorts feature a race-ratchet closure system. This allows for quick and secure on-the-fly adjustments to the waist fit.

Can I remove the inner liner?

Yes, the shorts come with a removable inner lining for added comfort and support. You can choose to wear them with or without the liner.

What material are the shorts made from?

The shell is made from 74% polyamide nylon, 16% polyester, and 10% elastane. The liner is made from 90% polyester and 10% elastane.

How should I clean and care for the shorts?

Machine wash cold with like colors, using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat. Cool iron if needed. Do not use fabric softeners.

What is the inseam length?

The inseam for the outer shorts is 16.5cm (6.5 inches), and the inseam for the inner liner is 15.2cm (6 inches).

Do the pockets have zippers?

Yes, the shorts feature two zippered hand pockets for secure storage of essentials.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose.

Adjust the race-ratchet closure for a more precise fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size by referring to the size chart and measuring waist circumference.

Liner feels uncomfortable or insufficient.

Ensure the liner is properly installed. Consider using separate padded cycling shorts underneath if more cushioning is desired for long rides.

Zipper on pockets is stiff or difficult to use.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or graphite (from a pencil) to the teeth.

Fabric is not repelling water effectively.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Consider re-applying a DWR treatment suitable for technical apparel.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement for active riding.
  • Durable construction suitable for trail use.
  • Moisture-wicking fabric keeps young riders comfortable.
  • Adjustable and secure fit system.
  • Versatile design for both on and off the bike.

Cons

  • Sizing is specific to children, requiring careful measurement.
  • The zipperless design might not appeal to all riders.
  • May require separate purchase of padding for maximum comfort on long rides if liner is insufficient.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The shorts come with a removable liner. Ensure the liner is correctly attached or detached according to rider preference. Adjust the race-ratchet closure for a snug but comfortable fit around the waist. Ensure all zippered pockets are securely closed before riding.

Compatibility: These shorts are designed for mountain biking and general trail riding. They are compatible with most standard cycling chamois if additional padding is desired, though the integrated liner offers a baseline level of comfort.

Care: Machine wash cold with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Do not bleach. Tumble dry low. Cool iron if needed. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impede the moisture-wicking properties of the fabric. Check care labels for specific instructions. The DWR finish may need reapplication over time with specialized products to maintain water repellency.
