Absolute comfort in Santa Cruz means urgency exits the chat.
I’ve just started riding Vermont’s Kingdom Trails in my new Sun Dog shorts. Amazingly comfortable. Feels like you’re riding naked. 😀 I’m hoping to see a lot more naked riders out there. I usually take a 34” inch waist in shorts. I went with the 33” for the Sun Dog and the fit is perfect. Can I wear them as PJ’s too? I’ll probably get another color next season.
I got a pair of shorts for my boyfriend and I really love them, they’re so comfortable I keep stealing them. Great material and as a climber I like the bike configurations for the pockets, they don’t get in the way of the harness.
I know these shorts are for marketed for men but as a woman, I like the sizing by waist inches (32 fit me perfectly and I'm usually 8 or 10 Ws) and I also liked the longer length that came just above my knee (I'm 5'5"). Great for hiking, biking, paddling, kicking it, summers in Tahoe. Love them, thanks!
Believe the recent NSMB.com review of these shorts. I concur with that review: simply the best all-around MTB shorts I’ve ever owned. So good I’m one of those consumers that will purchase another pair, like the most perfect, comfortably fitting Levi’s. For comparison, my previous go-to riding shorts were POC Air Guardians, and Abit’s. The way these shorts stretch but stay put with no scrunching is ace. As a person with super sized quads in relation to a smaller waist, the fit is absolutely spot on. I like the Sun Dog shorts so much I’ve been wearing them for all rides — MTB, gravel, and park. You simply can’t go wrong with these.
Lightweight and comfortable shorts that look amazing. The drawstring is a nice touch to not need a belt.
