M's Mountain Surf Short

I don't usually write reviews. But these Mountain Surf Shorts are so functional, high quality and stylish I had to break tradition. I've had a few weeks of riding, hanging out, washing, drying and, ultimately, beating these shorts up. They've held up, sure. But the biggest thing that stands out is how little I think about them when I'm riding. They move with me and don't get in the way. The fit is, I don't know, "relaxed." But they aren't baggy. Just kind of . . . perfect. At least as "daily drivers." I'm 5'11" and about 175 pounds (cough, cough) and ordered large. They fit well. Hard to say how mediums would fit. I might just have to order a pair to find out. I ordered two pairs of these (navy and black) and both colors look great. They have cool features like the zippered pockets on the bottom of both legs and adjustment straps for those days I eat too many pre-ride Oreos. I wear a belt while riding because I like a nice, secure feel, but I'm sure I could get away with just cinching up the adjusters. I love supporting small companies that are creating great products. I guess that's what happens when the people designing the goods live the lifestyle their products are intended for. IF you're looking for great shorts for mountain biking, walking around, doing yard work, watching TV, walking your dog, chasing your kids, writing reviews about on the computer or anything else north of April, you've found them.

Love the shorts. A bit larger than I expected. The Velcro adjustment straps don’t do much. If yo twist or bend over, they come open and pants are down.

The shorts run a slight bit too tight or the CoVid
Quarantine caused the weight line to expand
No matter what,I bought a larger pair this year and put away my last years medium size away in storage
The larger shorts size is just perfect

Excellent fabric providing stretch and breathability

I have tried many brands of trail shorts and have found Club Ride to be the most consistent in size and performance. My waist runs 30 to 31 and these fit the hips just right. I do not have to suck my gut in to put them on or keep pulling them up because they are sliding down. The fabric stretches when I need it too, but still looks fitted. I like that the Club Ride style transitions from kicking around to riding as if they were the same thing.

I purchased these online and the process and the delivery went smoothly.
