Endura Hummvee Bike Shorts

After commuting for a few months, comfort becomes everything on the bike. From those trusty pair of shorts or pants that you tolerated when you first took up cycling, you begin searching for shorts that have more padding, warmth and dry faster in wet conditions.

Good news, the Endura Hummvee Cycling Shorts are a great answer for anyone looking to buy their first pair of cycling shorts or simply are looking to replace an existing pair of cycling shorts but not sure what to buy.

Style & Colour

Coming in a range of colours including black, olive and camouflage, the Hummvee shorts are bound to have a colour that everyone will like.

One thing about these shorts that may defer some people is that they are not the most slim fitting shorts going around. This is due to the multiple pockets, zippers, key clip, vent zip which results in a more baggier fit. This is largely due to the shorts being designed for mountain biking rather than road riding.

Good news for our female readers that these shorts also come in a women’s version. The only difference between the men’s and women’s version is there is a different shaped pad and less vent zips on the women’s version.

Material

While not being quite being water proof, the Endura Hummvee shorts use a water-repellent material that’s made of a Teflon treated nylon. Although the material isn't quite waterproof, it will still keep you relatively dry in wet conditions.

On the front of the shorts you have a fairly soft feel fabric while on the back, the shorts are designed with a more hard wearing material (still the Teflon treated nylon) which is designed to better cope with the constant rubbing of your seat. Additionally, the shorts are triple stitched which help with durability.
