MTB Trail 1.0 Short - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I logged a full summer of after work laps in the Trail 1.0 Short and the ventilation made a real difference on the climbs. The detachable liner let me swap in my own chamois on longer days without any fit issues."

We build this short around one priority, staying cool during hot weather trail riding without sacrificing basic protection. The Trail 1.0 Short exists as the lightest option in the lineup, suited to shorter, faster rides where heat management matters more than heavy duty coverage.

A 360 degree polyester lightweight stretch weave forms the shell, treated with a dirt and water repellent coating for light durability without added weight. Laser cut ventilation and a shorter inseam work together to move air across the leg during sustained climbing efforts. The detachable liner uses body tight stretch mesh with a dual density chamois, secured by buttons for quick removal on rides where a liner isn't needed.

Two zippered leg pockets sit clear of the pedaling motion, and a hook and loop waist closure allows fast adjustment without added hardware. This short suits riders already running knee pads separately, since the slim, pre curved fit is tailored around smaller guards rather than bulkier armor.

We'd point this short toward riders logging hot weather trail miles or after work laps who want minimal weight and maximum airflow over heavier duty protection.
