For a pair of mountain bike shorts to be functional, they need to be durable and lightweight, have a fit that doesn't get in the way and a flash of style. The Women's Andorra Comp Shorts have all of this in spades.
They are made from a woven version of Specialized's lightweight and ultra-breathable VaporRize™ fabrics. As a result, the shorts are more than tough enough to take repeated spills while you're finding your line (or losing it), without sacrificing anything to comfort.
In terms of fit, you'll find that these shorts fall comfortably between baggy and tight, but don't go over the top with it either way. As a result, they are cut to fall just around the knee, leaving plenty of room for light armour or kneepads. There are also side waist adjustment tabs that keep the waist where you want it when the pockets are loaded. There are plenty of pockets - two hand, two back, and one side zippered.
*Please note that these shorts do not feature a pair of liner shorts with a chamois. If you're looking for this to be integrated, check out the Andorra Pro Shorts, or you could try out any of the SWAT™ shorts.
