FAQs
Are the shorts suitable for all weather conditions?
The shorts are designed for performance in moderate conditions. The DWR treatment offers some protection against light moisture and dirt, but they are not waterproof. For very hot weather, the liner might add warmth.
How do I know which size to order?
Refer to the sizing chart provided by Fox Head Clothing. Measure your waist and compare it to the 'size_mens_waist_uk' attribute to find the best fit. It's recommended to check reviews for specific fit feedback if available.
Can I wear these shorts without the liner?
Yes, the liner is removable. You can wear the shorts on their own or with your preferred padded cycling shorts or liner.
How durable is the ripstop fabric?
The ripstop fabric is designed for durability and resistance to tearing, making it suitable for the demands of mountain biking. It offers protection against abrasions and snags.
What is TruDri® technology?
TruDri® is Fox Head Clothing's technology that wicks moisture away from the skin to the surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate, helping to keep you cool and dry during activity.
How should I clean the shorts?
Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not bleach or dry clean.
What is the purpose of the side cinch?
The side cinch is an adjustable strap on the waistband that allows you to fine-tune the fit of the shorts for optimal comfort and security while riding.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose or too tight
Utilize the adjustable side cinch to fine-tune the fit. Ensure the snap closure is properly secured.
Chafing or discomfort from the liner
Ensure the liner is correctly positioned and adjusted. If discomfort persists, consider washing the liner to soften the material or try an alternative chamois.
Shorts feel damp after a ride
While the TruDri® waistband wicks moisture, intense activity can still lead to dampness. Ensure proper washing and drying techniques are used to maintain fabric performance. Allow shorts to air dry completely between uses.
DWR treatment effectiveness reduced
Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents during washing. Reapply a DWR treatment after multiple washes following product instructions.
