+ 1,000. Why, oh why do manufacturers of "cycling" pants cut them low in back or, alternatively, with high crotches? I've owned any number of high-end and low-end cycling shorts, knickers, and long pants that, this defect apart, would have been wonderful, but instead cut them like low-rise street p

I’ve worn the Musa shorts for several years. I dislike the elastic belt and the seams on the rear pockets did not hold for long….other than than, great durable shorts for cycling. On Sun, Aug 29, 2021 at 3:45 PM Peter Adler wrote: > Although a pair of pants (or maybe knickers) sound appealing,

Although a pair of pants (or maybe knickers) sound appealing, I don't expect to buy the new ones. I own an earlier generation of the grey/blue pants, with Velcro leg straps. The material is fine, for what it is. My two primary beefs are the elastic belt and the silly-low rise, which combine to

I have 2 pair long and 2 shorts from the first offering, the mustard color ones. I wear them, but not as often as I used to. Great pants and shorts. I like to rode with the pants when cook since I can cinch the bottom of the leg opening. On Friday, August 27, 2021 at 6:23:13 PM UTC-4 Berke

I agree with Frank about the belt. I put a non elastic web belt in both of my pairs of shorts. Steve On Sun, Aug 29, 2021 at 8:56 AM Frank Brose wrote: > Had a pair on yesterday. I think I have 4 or 5 pairs and the only > complaint I have would be the belt. If they had a web belt they would be

Had a pair on yesterday. I think I have 4 or 5 pairs and the only complaint I have would be the belt. If they had a web belt they would be the best shorts I've ever owned. Probably still are. I'll buy more. Frank Tomahawk,WI On Saturday, August 28, 2021 at 3:14:07 PM UTC-5 RichS wrote: > Andre

Andrew, resounding yes! MUSA shorts have been one of my favorite Riv garments too. Didn't know there was a version made with mesh pockets. The four pairs I own must be 6-7 years old with (thankfully) solid pockets. Still going strong. Best, Rich in ATL On Friday, August 27, 2021 at 6:23:13 PM U
