The ideal combination of protection, style and versatility for gravel riding, bike packing and adventure.
When you venture away from the pure Tarmac your kit and clothing demands change. These shorts use a stretch woven fabric, completely new to GOREWEAR, that has allowed us to create a functional all day riding short, with a stream-lined silhouette. Thanks to its stretch we can use a closely tailored fit whilst maintaining complete freedom for your pedalling movement. A rear panel provides water resistant protection from rear wheel spray, helping to keep your shorts dry and grit free.
