Didn’t fit. Returned.

Best pants ever

This are my seconds ZOIC pants already and what should I say: they are just perfect. Used them for a few gravel day trips around Meran, Italy. Perfect fit and an absolute dream to wear. Will definitely not be my last pants from ZOIC!

Adam P

Very Good

I’ve worn Zoic for several years now and always like them. The ether shorts perform well and have excellent durability. I would give 5 stars if not for the inconsistent fit. The newest pair of ethers I bought are noticeably smaller around the waist and around the legs than the ones I bought roughly a year, maybe a year and a half ago.

Fantastic for beach cycling

This is my second pair of Ether 9 shorts. I am using them on my fat bike for spring and summer beach cycling. Really comfortable and the pockets are great. I took them with me to cycle in Croatia with my wife, and they were not only great on the road bike, but also very functional for touring and hiking. The liner is also comfortable for me. Great combo.

John Magura

Nice Shorts

Very comfortable, and like that you can remove the liner and use in a different pair of shorts/pants.
