After years and years of wearing mountain bike shorts, these are by far, the most comfortable. They are incredibly light, breathable, and the fit is perfect. Legs aren't baggy, and there are no points in which they bind up. Something else to note as there is NO VELCRO, which is something I have never come across, and that makes laundering that... Read More much easier.
What I liked: the waist adjustments, the lightweight material, the fused seams, the addition of a second pocket.
What I didn't like: the length.
I bought these shorts for hot summer rides--these are supposedly the ultra-light, cross-country shorts. However, the inseam is so long that the sheer amount of fabric cancels out the light weight fac... Read Moretor.
I'm not sure why these are an inch longer than the Dirt Craft shorts, which the sales person told me were for more downhill riding.
Just breaking them in, worried about seam welded longevity! Many of my Patagonia products fail first at seams that are welded, not stitched! Cheaper to produce, but not long lived for the price! Been wearing and owning Patagonia for over 40ish years, still have a few coats from the 80s and 90s! Well kept! Newer products do not last!
Hi Kurt, thank you for sharing your concerns about the welded seams. These were added to make the shorts lighter, more stretchy, and more comfortable. If the seams (or any other feature of the shorts) should ever cause an issue, please keep in mind you are always welcome to [return](https://www.patagonia.com/returns.html) anything that doesn’t work out for you.

Light, cool and comfortable
These shorts exceeded my expectations! They are super comfortable, light and NOT hot. They have stretch in the right places and the pockets are just the right size to easily access a phone for a picture. Best shorts I own.
"Lightweight & stretchy", these shorts are great.
Very comfortable on long rides with pockets that are easily accessible. The side size adjustment sliders are easy to adjust and don't snag like velcro adjustments on some shorts.
The fabric is light, so these shorts are really comfortable in hot weather. There are no snaps to hook to your chamois, but the fit of these shorts is spot-on, so they're not necessary, even when moving around a lot on the bike.
These are the best MTB shorts going. Light, stretch, and fit perfectly. Designers have improved this version to remove the adjustable waist cord that never worked quite right and replaced it with a stretchy elastic waist. These shorts now have two zippered side pockets. Otherwise, they are the same great shorts that perform as advertised in all con... Read Moreditions, especially hot weather. They also run true to size and are the right length, not too long or short.
Ive been wearing both the previous Dirt Roamer shorts as well as the Dirt Craft shorts over the last several years and thought they were solid performers. But if I could have changed anything about the Dirt Roamers I would have added a second leg pocket, made the waist adjusters more usable and added a better snap closure. Well, that is exactly wha... Read Moret Patagonia changed. Ive had two days of riding in these shorts and they are PERFECT. The only thing I would like to see are some additional colors. I am a MTB guide in Arizona and ride >300 days/yr so over time I feel I have dialed in my expectations for my gear. These will definitely be my go-to shorts! Great job!
I'm stoked on these mountain biking shorts! The fit is perfect - just the right amount of fabric, nothing more than you need. Fits great over my (slightly big) booty and the zip pocket hold my phone in such a way that I forget it's even there. The material feels great, is breathable on hot days, and holds up to some dirt, branches, and ev... Read Moreerything else I run/fall into when riding. Amazing quality!
