Built to take a mountain of punishment, The North Face Bracket mountain bike shorts easily handle the hazards of the singletrack.

  • Offering a nonbinding fit, rugged outer shorts are water-resistant, breathable and quick drying; reinforced stitching on stress zones
  • Fabric is treated with a Durable Water Repellent finish that causes water to bead up and roll off
  • Waistband has adjustable tabs to fine-tune the fit; front zipper and snap-closure deliver quick on/off
  • Raised high-back waistband provides coverage when you're up and down, in and out of saddle
  • Elliptical knee hem is shaped and located for comfort and reduced pedaling interference
  • 4-way stretch, moisture-wicking, removable liner shorts feature a seamless, plush microfiber chamois to reduce friction points and relieve pressure in key areas
  • Triple-density foam-cushioned chamois dries quickly and breathes well, so you stay cool, dry and comfortable; chamois features fibers to reduce odors and regulate heat buildup
  • Using EPA-registered Sanitized® Silver to help with odor control, silver salt treatment prevents bacteria from forming in chamois, leaving skin's natural bacteria alone
  • Liner shorts have a brushed elastic waistband; gripping cuffs keep liner legs from creeping up
  • Twin front hand pockets and a flap cargo pocket provides storage; pockets feature mesh lining for additional ventilation; sunglass wipe in right pocket
  • Fabric provides UPF 30 sun protection, shielding skin from harmful ultraviolet rays
  • Closeout

    Comments about The North Face Bracket Bike Shorts - Men's - 2012 Closeout:

    My first pair of biking shorts. For someone that can't compare it to anything else, here's what I observed. The padding seems good in riding position; however, feels a little awkward when walking around. I noticed a great increase in comfort for longer and aggressive rides. The material seems durable and feels light. I also want to mention that the material makes that nylon rubbing noise while biking. Overall, I am satisfied with the shorts. They were designed for mountain biking and perform that task to standard. Bottom-line: they stay in position while riding and offer padding.

    Comments about The North Face Bracket Bike Shorts - Men's - 2012 Closeout:

    length is too long and rubs my leg below the padded short portion. Wish the padded shorts could be detached from the outer shorts for laundry.
