Whether you’re hitting the dirt or heading to the café after your ride, these shorts are up for both.

Ideal for riders who want the comfort of a chamois without committing to lycra. Perfect for mountain bikers who tackle technical trails, gravel tracks or local singletrack, and want gear that looks and feels good before, during and after the ride. Who is this not for? Not suited to road cyclists chasing aero gains or those needing multiple pockets for endurance rides. If you’re after full bib-and-brace race kit or high-compression fabrics, this isn’t the piece for you. Why we love it: These shorts strike the right balance between trail-ready function and casual style. The removable liner is a win for versatility – ride with it, remove it after, and you’ve got a practical pair of casual shorts.
