United StatesBest mtb shorts by a mile
I've tried a lot of different mountain bike shorts over the years. I almost always wear them over bibs. I want enough pocket space to be useful, but not so much that it's baggy or awkward. I want to finely tune the waist so they stay put without being restrictive. I want a stretch so I feel comfortable, and I want them not too loose, so I don't feel sloppy especially when climbing. These shorts are exactly right in every way. The buckle closure is fantastic, the adjustment is easy and precise, the zip pockets are secure and roomy, and the cut is perfect. An instant favorite.
United StatesLove them
I have the Masterlink and the Mescal and I think I prefer the Masterlink. They run small (I have an XS in the Masterlink and a S in the Mescal). The pocket placement is perfect and they are comfortable even when riding in FL heat.
United StatesGreat shorts! Fit a little large
I normally wear a large, but with these shorts, I am definitely a medium
United StatesThe super short
A fantastic short that will no doubt hold up for many years. Love the fit and fabric. Another home run by Kitsbow!
United StatesMasterlink is masterly done!
This is the most comfortable, durable and just forget they are even on MTB short I have ever worn. The cut is perfect with no sag to interference with repeated on and off the saddle in hike a bike terrain. The stretch fabric is super comfy over a wide range of temperatures and is darn tough. Wear over your Zen liners and ride in comfort!
