United StatesMy favorite short, period. Everything is dialed from the feel of the fabric, to the stellar fidlock belt, to the well placed pockets. I would order another pair in the other colorways if they were still available in my size.
United StatesLike the title says… These shorts are outstanding. Well constructed with the biker in mind, comfortable, breathable, and just generally of that great Kitsbow quality.
United States United States United StatesWow! I can't say much more than the many other glowing user reviews. I own many, many Kitsbow pieces, including the A/M Shorts and the Haskel. Each of these are amazing pieces and, upon purchasing them, I shelved every other pair of mountain biking shorts I own. With The Masterlink Shorts added to my arsenal, I fear my A/M Shorts will become neglected. They run slightly bigger than the A/M shorts and the cut is less of a tailored fit than the A/M. This allows the accommodation of bib shorts and makes for a more casual look off the bike. The construction and materials are strong and stretchy. The waist adjustability mechanism is upgraded from the A/M. Finally, the magnetic closure the icing on the cake...its utility is brilliant and unique! Cheers Kitsbow!
