Fox  Flexair Bike Shorts - Men's

Over the years I have tried a lot of different styles/brands in search of the perfect fit (Specialized, Giro, etc). While I was a bit hesitant to try Fox brand cycling shorts out as I always had the mindset that they were a more 'dirt bike' focused brand, I've got to say these shorts are probably my favorite out of the many high end shorts I've purchased! Some of my previous shorts were a bit too long and would actually grab my water bottles from time to time (actually lost one insulated Camelbak water bottle on a ride recently because of this...) however these are just the right amount of length + wiggle room around the kneecap. What makes these extra awesome (IMHO) is the buckle system, a lot of other brands actually have belt loops and I've gotten into the habbit of wearing an old leather belt with those to dial in the perfect fit. Not necessary with these as they have some sort of a ratchet system similar to a snowboard binding which helps keep things perfectly dialed in while reducing the need for a stiff belt. Only negative that I can think of would be that the material is a little 'loud' if you are just walking around before your ride, that's really not too much of an issue and I'm nitpicking. I would certainly highly recommend these bad boys + go with the matching woven shirt which is equally awesome if you want to do the whole thing

I’m a size 38 and my all my other shorts are size 38. These almost fit but we’re just a little too tight for my liking. I like the stretchy material and the buckle closure is pretty nice.

nice and light material and construction, but the inseam is not 13", it is only 11", so above the knee. Just think people buying on-line should note this.

Very light material and well ventilated on leg area
