Details & care

These durable pants are stretchy, breathable and weather-resistant, designed to rip the mountain bike down the trails with confidence and comfort. They have quick-drying, water/wind-resistant qualities with movement-mirroring stretch that compliments every pedal stroke. The DuraPrint™ technology reinforces the inner ankle for superior abrasion resistance against the toughest terrain. The 15-inch side zips at the hem make it easy to put knee pads on at the top of the climb, while the contoured waistband with a higher back provides essential coverage when maneuvering the bike through complex terrain. A slide lock snap closure, bonded back waistband and Low-Pro™ side waist adjustment tabs create a custom fit.

I am so glad I found these pants ...

... because they fill a void in my "wardrobe". After a week of living and riding in them ... excellent design/fit/comfort/function/looks. The waist adjustment and closure is outstanding, as is the precise sizing and the very accurate size chart. A 30 is indeed perfect for 31" waist me. My new favorite pants.

under built

The little strap waist tightener is dinky and weak, no match for a large butt like mine (6'0, 195). The whole thing ripped off on the second or third wearing. Cyclists behind me have suffered gruesome visuals as a result. I generally love OR but this is a disappointment.

Super Light & Stretchy

Gr8 Mtn Bike pants. Super light. Super stretchy. Size is tight so think about sizing up. Zippers on legs are long and allow easy placement of knee pads. My two downsides are (1) the pockets are way too small; (2) there are only two pockets. A rear external pocket would come in handy.

Best MTB pant.

Fit, comfort, and look were all spot on but why I will buy this pant again is the engineering. Keyhole button on the waist band that doesn’t open like traditional button closures, econd was the zippers on the legs so I didn’t have to drive to the trial with knee pads on, and I could take the sweat soaked things off when I came off the trail. Honestly the leg zippers alone are worth the premium in my opinion, but they also happen to be the most comfortable MTb pants I’ve owned. Will certainly buy again

Perfect for cooler shoulder-season rides

Comfortable with just the right amount of stretch. The perfect shoulder-season complement to my Freewheel Ride Shorts. It remains to be seen how they hold up to a fall, but they seem pretty durable.

Great MTB Riding Pants

The fit is great, just the right amount of room for pads and guards with a comfortable fit and feel. Takes a lot of abuse, tested after a couple of crashes and came out without any damage (dirty, but no damage). Heavy enough for cool weather riding, but light enough for those warm days. Whether you are a beginner or an expert, you will love the fit and performance of these pants. They have become my favorite, even over my regular Endura or Fox pants (still love them too).

I love these pants. They are comfortable, keep my dry from early morning dew, and have pockets in all the right places. Fits true to size.
