  • Stretch fabric on the legs for greater comfort and flexibility as you move
  • Water resistant DWR finish

  • This combination of lightweight technical fabrics is practical, effective, wicking and breathable
  • No jangle, cargo pocket with net has room for your essentials
  • Un-padded, great to wear with our undershorts for cycling
  • For cycling, because they don't fall down, wearing a bib short underneath isn't essential and any padded liner or short will work
  • Now in a short (32cm)* and long (37cm)* leg length - *inseam from centre crotch seam
  • Model in Blue is Phil, he wears the short XL in our mountain bike wear. He is 5'10"
  • PLEASE NOTE : This is definitely a marmite item and doesn't work for everyone. It's definitely worth a try if you're struggling to find shorts which fit but you might need to try a couple of sizes as the shape of your body makes a big difference to how they feel and fit on different people

FIT GUIDE

Because the fabrics we use are very stretchy, each size spans several sizes. As people carry their fat and muscle in different places the stretchy fabrics we use, combined with the design means that each short size can accommodate a variety of different body shapes and sizes.

We have used our FLAB sizing for road cycling gear to give existing customers an idea of how the shorts fit as well as a size chart.

For best results pick a size which best corresponds to your belly and hip measurement. If you have chunky thighs and legs go with the larger of the sizes, if you have slim legs, you are probably better with the smaller size.

We have used our FLAB sizing for road cycling gear to give existing customers an idea of how the shorts fit as well as a size chart.

For best results pick a size which best corresponds to your waist at its largest point (belly). If you have chunky thighs and legs we suggest the larger of the sizes, if you have slim legs, you're probably better with the smaller size.

Our outdoor shorts and trousers are great for biking, MTB gravel or walking and have a stretch tummy panel which should fit high around the waist and a gently tapered leg.

When trying on, adopt cycling position and 'wriggle about' to see how the waistband works for you

The MTB Trouser fabric has less stretch than that in our shorts therefore the trouser sizing is coming up smaller and you may need to go up a size in the trousers, depending on how the shorts fit you. 

Top Tips For Getting The Right Size

  1. Get measured before you order - don't rely on your jeans size
  2. Measure your waist at its largest point - usually around your belly button
  3. Drop us an email with your measurements if you need some help
