BERGRISARMen's Cycling Shorts MTB Mountain Bike Bicycle Shorts Zipper Pockets

Advertised as mountain bike shorts but they don't come with padded liners (I should have read the description more thoroughly) and whilst they are relatively comfortable, the materials used are not as robust those used in other rivals. Really, all your buying is a pair of lightweight shorts, not mtb shorts as such. So given the fact that you have to spend at least another £10-£20 on padded liners and the lightweight materials used I don't envisage them standing up to the rigours if real mountain biking too well so I would say these reopresent poor value for money when you can get decent padded mtb shorts from the likes of Decathlon Sports or such for similar money. They do look good on but that's about it. It's a thumbs down from me!

Saw one review saying the pockets and weight were wrong. Saw another review saying the XL was a good fit for larger tall person. Both are true. The XL shorts fit nicely on a 6'2" 105KG frame and they are just right for light wear but I think a strong fart would tear straight through the fabric so not sure they will stand up to much MTB work. The popper design looks good and has a velcro surround so I recon that looks much more durable that the Dakine shorts with the small popper on a stretch fabric base which doesnt last long. As for the pockets... decoration. The side pockets are only just big enough to get your hand in and really only good for very short term storage (no pun) and the horizontal zipped leg pocket is big enough to get a post it note in - but I can only get three fingers into the pocket so I don't think I would ever retrieve something that went in there. The vertical leg pocket zip is big enough to get an iPhone in but the pocket opening is only just big enough to get your hand in, and the shorts are so lightweight, you wouldn't put anything heavier than a phone in them anyway.Should be OK for general use shorts and wearing without padded shorts underneath.

They are most definitely not MTB shorts. If you were to use as such I reckon they would last a handful of rides. They are very thin. The zip pockets are largely redundant due to the quality of the material anything you put in them just hangs down. The velcro on the fastener drives me mad as it keeps catching and serves no purpose whatsoever. If they were marketed as summer beach shorts at around £12 they would be perfect but they are not what they claim to be

These work brilliantly for cross country or mountain biking. So many zipped pockets. And the two main ones that arent zipped are high enough I'm not worried about losing anything out of them either. Waist is super stretchy - which works well for those of us who are generously proportioned. Super light and quick drying which is ideal since I wear mine over my lycra padded shorts when riding.Overall a solid product and well recommended.

These were better than I expected, being cheap.The waist is slightly stretchy, with velcro tighteners on the sides if needed, was true to size.They are fastened by a firm popper surrounded by tough velcro so shouldn't open unexpectedly!Lots of pockets and made of light breathable material that dries quickly if wet.Pretty happy with the purchase, can't fault them
