The Ether Short is a trail-tested and 5-star-rated performance short for mountain biking and outdoor adventure. Comfortable, durable, and versatile, these technical cargo shorts are packed with pockets and plenty of mountain bike specific features that make them the go-to short for avid trail riders.
Look, the shorts don’t seem all that new despite the year being in the title. Still the same design from forever ago. Still the same pockets that never catch and rip open. The Velcro that holds on like a fishing hook to the cheek and never seems to get dull? Still there. Oh, the adjustable waste is still the same design, so my shorts don’t pull to one side like I’m a toddler when I tighten them. Still the right amount of pockets, since most other shorts seem to hate wallets. Basically the same as last year. Except for a better fit. And better material feel. Oh, and when you get caught in a rainstorm on your way to work you don’t have to worry about buying new shorts from the shop when you get there. Mine dried in 20 minutes. Best updates to the shorts in a long time. Get two pairs. You’ll want them.
