    I wear Handups casual stuff all the time but I'm STOKED to finally have a longer inseam. I have 2 pair now and I just rotate those 2...... probably need to get a 3rd.

    All I wanted from my handup shorts was no knee pad gap! PROBLEM SOLVED. The buckle is super comfy too.

    Why We Made The Trail Rambler Shorts

    The Trail rambler shorts are a true technical mountain bike short that still offers the pockets and features of a casual short for those quick post ride bar or store stops..
    The 12 inch inseam prevents any knee pad gap. Ventilation through the inner inseam and across the lower back keep you cool while the silicon printed stretch waistband keeps the waistband locked in place. All 5 full zip-pockets offer premium security for your essentials. We even added a self locking buckle and strap for infinite waist adjustment.

    We made the Trail Rambler Short to offer a more premium, technical mountain bike short that still offers the amenities of regular shorts. While most MTB shorts are $100, we've kept these Fast, Fun, & 'Ffordable at only $74.

    Pretty solid for the price, falls short in a few spots

    These are solid MTB shorts for the price, but there are a couple of frustrating issues. The pocket zippers feel pretty cheap—they’re slightly recessed, which makes them awkward to close, and every time I use them, the zipper feels like it’s straining. I’m not confident in their long-term durability. Some areas of the shorts also feel a bit low-quality in terms of materials. I’m a big fan of Handup and will definitely keep supporting them, but I do hope to see improvements in the construction of their bottoms in the future.

    The perfect mountain bike short

    These might just be the perfect mountain bike short! Every detail is intentional, and they fit perfectly, not too long when walking around and not too short when riding. I will definitely buy more of these in the future!

    Awesome

    These are an awesome pair of shorts. The only weird thing is this hidden side pocket. It's kind of a vent but it's hard to open not sure of its purpose. Aside from that they seem well made and the integrated belt is nice.
