Frequently Asked Questions

What's the point of this 2-in-1 mesh short?

It's two shorts in one — a breathable mesh outer layer over a built-in liner, so you don't need to wear a separate pair underneath.

Are these worth it for long runs and training?

Built for logging serious mileage, the compression fabric keeps muscles fresh over long distances, so they're a solid pick for long runs and training with compression support. They also work for short rides, but with no padded seat (chamois) they aren't meant to replace dedicated padded cycling shorts on long saddle time.

What sizes are available, and what size is a 34-inch waist?

Sizes run XS(W28), S(W30), M(W32), L(W34) and XL(W36) — they're sized by waist, so a 34-inch waist is size L.

Do I need to wear underwear under these?

The built-in compression liner is designed to be worn on its own in place of underwear, so a separate pair isn't required. Layering a regular pair on top is a personal choice, though it can add bunching and chafing.

Do these have a padded seat (chamois) for long rides?

No. These have a mesh outer over a compression liner, with no padded seat (chamois). The liner adds support and helps muscles over distance and is fine for short rides, runs and training, but for long time in the saddle it isn't a substitute for dedicated padded cycling shorts.
