United StatesVery high quality product
I was so pleased to receive these shorts. I really like the Kitsbow shirts, but had not previously experienced their shorts or pants. As soon as I opened the box, I was struck by the high quality of materials and craftsmanship. In fact, I got online and ordered another pair in another color.
United StatesA couple of years in, I wore them on a 2 month trip in Costa Rica and their still like new
I bought these shorts a couple years ago (back when Kitsbow moved out of NorCal) on clearance and they're my favorite riding shorts so they get worn more than my other pairs. We just took a trip to Costa Rica and I brought them and because I was packing light I only had 3 pairs of shorts total for 2 months, wearing them several days a week and (mostly) hand washing in between. They were comfortable, dried fast, and look great. My wife asked me if I bought a new pair as she hadn't seen me wear them off the bike. Sure they're expensive, but they're quality and they last. My only "complaint" is they're a bit heavy on the hottest days when you're really exerting yourself so if the temps are pushing 90+ I'll go for lighter fabric. Fully recommend.
United StatesMy favorite
I have never liked the longer-cut MTB shorts. The Haskell 8" fit (me) perfectly. More like a traditional pair of shorts in the way they fit around the waist, and the shorter length is my preference so I'm stoked with this product. Stretchiness is a sweet touch. Two rides with these shorts and I scraped them on a log and a rock (including a little bloodshed...**** happens). They're bomb proof. Looking forward to another pair in a different color. Oh, you can even wear them when your not riding on the trail and they look great!
United StatesBest shorts to walk the earth
I want to clarify that I actually don't own these shorts yet... But my order is on the way. I needed to borrow a pair of shorts while filming in the Sierras, and my friend made the mistake of lending me his Haskell's. They were so comfortable that I refused to take them off for an entire week in the case that he would want them back. When I finally returned them, I made take a whiff and was expecting him to maybe gag a bit. Instead, he described a hint of lavender, probably from the detergent he had used a week prior. These shorts are invincible and I can't wait for mine.
United StatesEnjoying these shorts
I’ve been sporting these fairly consistently since they arrived. Very comfortable- Very well made. Highly recommend!
