Product Information
Full details
The Troy Lee Designs Skyline MTB Shorts are designed for adult male mountain bikers who prioritize unrestricted movement and long-ride comfort. These shorts excel at providing a flexible, secure fit through 4-way stretch fabric and a reliable fused waistband, making them ideal for aggressive trail riding; however, note that these are 'shell' shorts, meaning they do not include a padded liner, so you will need to pair them with your preferred chamois for extended sessions.

FAQs
Do these shorts come with a chamois pad?
No, these are shell shorts and do not include an integrated padded liner.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the deep YKK zippered pockets are designed to securely hold standard-sized smartphones.
How do I wash the Skyline MTB Shorts?
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle and air dry to maintain fabric elasticity and logo reflectivity.
Can I use these for other sports?
While designed for mountain biking, the breathable, stretchable fabric makes them suitable for hiking or casual outdoor activities.
Are these shorts waterproof?
They are designed for breathability and are not classified as waterproof, though the polyester material dries relatively quickly.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels loose while riding
Adjust the Velcro side tabs tighter and ensure the silicone gripper is resting directly against your skin or baselayer.
Zipper feels stiff or hard to open
Clear any trail dirt or mud from the YKK zipper track using a soft brush; occasionally apply a small amount of zipper lubricant.
Shorts shifting during aggressive maneuvers
Verify the sizing is correct for your waist; if the shorts are too large, the grippers cannot make proper contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best fit, utilize the Velcro side adjusters while standing in your riding position to ensure they aren't too tight when you are hunched over the handlebars. Since these are shell shorts, ensure you have a comfortable chamois or bib liner that fits well beneath them. For care, wash the shorts in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the 4-way stretch fabric and the reflective logos. Avoid using fabric softeners as they can degrade the technical properties of the synthetic materials. Always air dry, as high heat from a dryer can damage the silicone grippers and the heat-transferred logos.
