"I bought these mainly based on their friendly price but was pleasantly surprised with a nice pair of short. The fit was perfect for my size and the material seems good. I really like the BOA waist closure, it allows for a perfect customized fit every time. If one ate and have a full belly, easy, loosen it up and that's it. My only critique is that they do not have a side pocket something that I really like to have in all my shorts so that I can comfortably carry a multi tool when riding. However, I liked the shorts so much that finding a different location for my multi tool was not an issue. I was kind of worried about the color but ended up liking it a lot. For the price I couldn't ask for more."

"Waist size is good, little tighter fit in the thighs but not uncomfortable. Would like one more pocket."

"Definitely pants. Just a heads up because it was not clear enough for me to notice they have a boa like snowboard shoes. It’s kinda dumb."

Great deal for a lightweight
"Great deal for a lightweight and comfortable short to wear over a chamois. Length is good and they look nice. Waist size runs true, but they could use a bit more slack in the BOA at the waist because they are snug to get over muscular glutes and thighs. Note that these shorts do not have a fly."

Liked enough to buy 2nd pair
"My favorite mtb short yet. Great fit, stretchy, thin fabric. Very comfortable. The fit, along with little, raised "rubber" strips on the inside of the rear of the waistband ensure that the shorts don't slip down your rear over time on long rides. The length is perfect for riding with kneepads. A couple things to be aware of: First, these shorts have very limited waist adjustment. (The waist is tightened not by a strap, but a ratcheting cable mechanism very similar to those on my Scarpa ski boots. ) Picking the right size is important. Second, the fit seems right for a typical cyclist (slim) build. If you have very bulky quads or a large butt, they might be tight and/or difficult to put on. Lastly (very minor thing) they have no fly. So if you're a guy stopping to pee, you'll need to release the ratcheting cable and pull down the waistband. For reference I'm 6'2", 190 lbs, typically wear a 34" waist in pants. The 34" size fits me perfectly."

"Fit and finish is great, sale price definitely worth it!"

"Reviews said these run small. As a result I got 36", and they seem true to size. Waste does not cinch enough to make up for buying a size up. But over all nice shorts for the $16"

"Definitely not my go-to color, but the quality is great and the color looks better in person. A little tight to put on but they fit great!"
