Pulling these on, the mesh liner felt great – and that was borne out when riding because the pad stayed comfortable no matter what moves we pulled.
The shell has strategically placed stretch panels mixed with a woven fabric, which gives a light and airy feel that’s good for summer riding, but it did seem to cause them to ride up and pull across the front.
It wasn’t life threatening though, and although this is pretty unremarkable style-wise the Enduro short still makes a pretty decent all-round option for summer cross-country riding.
If quiet anonymity is your thing then the undercarriage comfort and the lightweight coolness could well ring your bell.
