Like riding naked, only better. A tough and technical ride short optimized with mesh panels for max airflow. Updated refinements include a built-in belt and auto-locking zip for a comfortable, perfect fit that will make this durable softshell short seem to disappear beneath you.
Fabrication & Features
- Highly mobile, but remarkably durable soft shell
- Generous stretch mesh paneling in front, waist, and sides ensure maximum active ventilation
- Tailored profile ensures short won’t snag on saddle or flap in the wind on fast descents
- Simplified alloy hook at the waist enable a full 3 inches of adjustability
- Articulated waistband subtly raised in back and lowered at sides to ensure complete coverage while reducing potential hotspots
- The back of each knee breaks right where your knees bend and is shaped so it won’t brush your calves with the pedal stroke
- Zippered side pockets are reversed and contoured for easy access and comfortable storage
- “Low profile fly construction” - we eliminated the snap with a beefier auto-locking zip and inner snap, but no big snap. it’s more comfortable on your belly under the belt.
- Inset mesh fabric on back yoke interfaces with mesh ventilation panels on the Ventilated Cycling Liner
- Reflective hits on the back and side
- Subtle Kitsbow embroidery

"The Kitsbow Ventilated V2 is the recently updated version of our previous Editors' Choice Award for trail and cross country riding, the Kitsbow A/M Ventilated, and the new version maintains that top step on the podium. Attention to detail and very thoughtful design make these shorts the best fitting and pedal friendly in our test selection."

Ventilated Short V2.
I love the new shorts. I must admit that I thought manmade fibre maybe too warm for the semi- tropics (Brisbane) but I thought I would give them a try out anyway. I am glad I did as they are just great for my early morning ride and they are well ventilated and cool. They also look a **** of a lot better than my old baggy shorts, so I do not look so daggy when ordering my flat white at the coffee shop after the ride. Only one small complaint, they do tend to ride down after a while on the bike. I like them so much I also wear them when off the bike, they work great at my Tai Chi classes.
Best practical bike shorts
I love the fit and the practical details. Great pockets and look. Excellent support and comfort.
Best MTB shorts I have ever ridden in!
I absolutely love these shorts! Over the years finding a pair of shorts that fit well and move with me has been a challenge. I have tried many brands. Then one day I tried these on and immediately saw the difference. Today I got ride in them for the first time and will never go back to my old shorts. Going to buy a second pair now and then probably a third. Love them!
Practical and great fitting
I enjoy this product. Comfortable, good pockets, great for riding and then sitting down for a drink
Excellent Fit, excellent fabric
Having ridden in other Kitsbow shorts for years, these fit the best. A bit slimmer than the first version and the fabrication quality is very good. I do have 2 pairs of these and wear both equally, the one thing I would appreciate is a more secure buckle, the one on V2, is ineffective and comes loose on every ride. I do like them enough to buy 2 pairs! Another great piece of Kitsow
