Lightweight, breathable mountain bike & outdoor pant made from our famously soft, four-way stretch fabric—lightweight, breathable, and ready for long pedals or scrambley trails. A low-bulk waistband with drawcord keeps things secure and comfortable.

30-day returns, plus, a repair & recycling program.

Once you ride in these, there’s no going back to the bulky, overbuilt stuff. Smooth lines, max mobility, zero distractions. Now with a roomier fit and streamlined cuff design.

    • We were sick of bulky, overbuilt mountain bike pants, so we built one based on an alpine philosophy: everything you need, nothing you don’t. A lightweight, breathable pant with max mobility, supreme comfort, and zero distractions.

      The best thing for the planet is to buy less stuff. So why own five pairs of pants for five different activities when one pair of Sun Dog Pants can do it all.

    Incredibly Comfortable, Quick Drying

    My partner used these on a recent bikepacking trip and said these were super comfy. They also dried really quickly which was a plus when coming out of a rain storm. He did comment it would be great if they were a tad longer (he's 6'5"), but this wasn't a deal breaker. Overall they performed quite well, and they stayed out of the chain and cranks nicely.

    Happy Dog!

    The sun dog pants are perfect for shoulder season riding. Surprisingly durable for how light the fabric is. I was a little worried that the ankle might be a little loose on the drivetrain side but once you’re on the bike all the “slack” gets taken up and nothing catches.
    I wore these for a weekend biking Targhee and Jackson and they are now my go to for fall riding. I love them!

    Woman in Men’s Small 10/10

    I’m a woman, but I love brown. (If I don’t look like I’m clocked in for a shift at UPS, am I even dressed like myself? ) The smalls fit me like a dream, though they are a little tighter than the women’s cut. Just saying. Back to the men now.

    Super Stretchy & Breathable

    I have long legs and these were surprisingly long enough. The drawstring waistband is super comfortable. Wore these on a muddy, rainy hike and the mud slid right off and they dried super quickly. Big fan of the fit and color.

    Haven't had a chance to bike in these but I can tell they are going to be the bomb. Love the waist band. Well done.

    Almost perfect

    Very nicely made pants that move well and comfortably fit knee pads underneath. Adding two hand pockets would make them perfect!

    Comfort and Versatility

    I am loving these pants! The dark blue color looks great. Biking in pants requires a special fabric that is stretch and comfortable with lots of knee flexing. These pants didn't feel cumbersome at all while riding. The light fabric was great match for early fall temperatures. I am excited to use them for winter running and winter nordic skiing. All-around just a great pair of pants for all your activities! I saw some reviews after I purchased that the size runs a little bit small and I agree. So if you are on the fence on sizing go up one size.

    Sun Dog Pants For The Win

    I absolutely love the Sun Dog pants. First off, the Molé colorway is hard to beat. I also love how easy it is to pull the pants on/off over knee pads/shoes thanks to the nice adjustable pant cuff. The pockets are a perfect size and well placed on the pant. The waist size is spot on compared to other pants I have. And lastly, I love how soft and breathable the fabric is while maintaining it's durability.

    Wrong size was sent the first time but that was remedied immediately. Natahsa was wonderful to work with, this is a great company. I have since received the proper size and these pants are awesome.

    Best pants ever

    These pants are fantastic! Indestructible going through thorny overgrown Pennsylvania trails and also light enough to wear on hot muggy days.

    My hubby’s favorite pants!

    I got a pair of these for a mountain biking vacation and he loves them so much I got him another pair for Father’s Day. He wears them all the time for everyday activities. They fit him well and are well made.

    Lanky Boy's Favorite Pants

    These are hands down the best bike/active pants I've come across. They feel light and airy but still substantial, and the fit is dialed except ... I've got your classic short-torso-long-limbs. I'd literally own one in every color if there were a "tall" size option with an extra 2" of pant leg. I own the 33 waist and literally everything else about these pants is PERFECT. If you don't have long lanky legs like me, you won't find a better pair of bike pants. And if you do, I guess just get ready to bare them ankles.

    Almost Perfect

    CC is great to work with and, for the most part, it's products are top notch. My two small gripes about the Sun Dog pants - 1) the lack the whimsical design that the brand is known for and, 2) the cutout at the bottom of the pant seems odd... like, it is just an open slit that connects with a snap.

    Great for Everything

    These pants are great not only for biking... but for climbing, hiking, fishing and adventuring. Love the fit and feel and they are super breathable. Comfortable for all activities.

    Sun Dog Pants

    Most amazing pants! Fits perfect! I got the men's 30 and I'm a women's size 4. So soft, stretchy, fitted but not to tight and I love all the zip pockets!

    the sun dog pant is a stellar mountain bike pant but to categorize it as simply a mountain bike pant would be an injustice. The pant is super versatile, fits extremely well and works for everything from on the bike to a great day hiking the greens in Vermont. Just stretchy enough, they fit true to size and work as well post ride as they do while pedaling. Love them...

    Bulletproof

    The pants went through a crash that had me pulling rocks out of my elbow after. Blew my knee wide open and guess what. Not even a snag in the fabric on these. Riding the Rockies comes with some pretty rough falls and these pants will be living in my truck til bike season is over. Comfy as all hell too.

    Unmatched comfort you must experience

    These pants are the bomb! They feel like you are wearing nothing, which is crazy cause the material has a durable feel. The button-less waist is pinch free and the drawstring keeps em right where you want them. Ankle cuff snaps allow you to slide knee pads on at the trailhead. Cannot convey how comfortable these things are with words, they must be experienced.
