Great summer warm riding short. Good fit over leg armour. Lots of stretch and super light when the temperatures get warm. The tan is a nice colour. Have them already in black. All around perfect riding short.

I own a good amount of POC products including 6 pairs of mtb shorts, never had to complain about anything. First, my order took 3 weeks to arrive to Canada. Second, I used the Guardian Air shorts ONCE and the two bottom seams of the legs came undone.I sent pictures to POC who asked me to destroy the shorts (or send them back) in order to get a replacement or a refund. I didn't have the time to ship them back but wasting gear that still has plenty of functional life in it goes against my values.I wish POC had a repair program. Also, considering this is a 160$ pair of shorts, I was expecting POC to honour their product by simply replacing or offering a refund/credit as soon as they received message.Overall, even if they don't have the elastic waistband, I recommend ... MoreI own a good amount of POC products including 6 pairs of mtb shorts, never had to complain about anything.

I am 5'11" with a 32 waist and the mediums fit me perfectly. These shorts are very comfortable, nice material, I can fit my phone and keys in the pockets without causing the shorts to sag or pull to one side or bounce around while riding. Feel great to pedal in as well. The length down to the kneecap is also perfect. They design these with riding position in mind which is awesome.
Great quality shorts with nice zipper pocket. The shorts are fairly long to my knees, but still easy to ride with. I wear the w's recycle boxer underneath for a comfy ride.
Got these for my long commute (paired with POC padded boxers). Low pocket position is ace design. Fits true (178 / 70 -- size M). Only wish is that they were a few cms shorter. These hit right at the knee.
Lightweight...fresch perfect!I don't understand why you can't sell with padded bottom that can already be included...
I wear 34 w quicksilver these fit perfect and have just the right amount of stretch for riding. Heck these could become my favorite hanging out short. My inseam is 34 just over knee, “not shorties”I Want More!
Use them forMountain biking. Super lite but they feel strong! The fit is just perfect! Recommand them for sure!
When I got these I was skeptical about the pockets being on the leg, however, even with heavy items like a smart phone in you don't even realise the pockets are full.Unfortunately the stitching in my first pair fell apart. POC sent out another, now the glue on the bottom of the leg has failed and the hem is coming away, only had them two months.
