GiroTruant Shorts - Men's
Item # GIR00BE
Make time for the trails.
Trying to squeeze in a quick spin along the trails before that family BBQ you promised you'd be at is more doable than ever with Giro's all-new Truant Shorts. The brand has been flexing its casual muscles recently by introducing functional cycling and mountain bike clothing that appears polished off-trail, giving riders even more freedom to get their miles in whenever possible.
The Truant manages to be at ease on singletrack and off it, and the durable DWR-coated nylon and spandex weave that Giro uses to construct the shorts leaves them plenty capable to handle a few run-ins with branches along tight and twisty sections of hardpack. Giro constructs the Truant with a 14in inseam and rear stretch panel, so they won't leave your legs vulnerable as you pedal but still move with you when you get out of the saddle to pop over a crux. Two hand pockets as well as one zippered security pocket provide plenty of space to store ride essentials or a phone, so you can make sure you get your adrenaline fix and still get to that BBQ on time.

These are a great over short for mountainbiking. They are well made and have a nice fit to them. The material is durable and will hold up well to long term use and crashes (knock on wood!).

I love the clean look of these shorts and the fact that they have plenty of pockets. They use a nice stretchy material that provides a great fit. Not too baggy and not too slim. My one complaint with these is the material is a bit noisy while walking and pedaling. Kind of like a noisy windbreaker at times.

I got this short for weekend adventures, guessing from reviews, that they would probably work for what I needed. I was very surprised at how well they fit and how comfortable they are. I love the waist adjustment option and the pockets. If you are on the fence, make the purchase, you won't regret it.

Got this short from Giro and was a little skeptical of how good it could be, especially coming from a brand that is not known for clothing. I was actually quite presently surprised. The cut wasn't overly baggy and the length was just wright to go a little past my knee. Never had any issues with the fit and stayed in place. Looks good enough to wear off the bike as well
