The inner liner is a bit awkward when taking the shorts on and off. Maybe it should be fastened to the outer shorts in more places. Otherwise I am satisfied good padding, comfortable, without the skin tight fit of other shorts.

 
Just the right amount of baggy

Pros:
Good Padding, Good Pockets and Features
Cons:
Hard to Wash
Best Uses:

Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

My only complaint is the inner liner: I have both a large and an extra large pair of these shorts and find the outer is too tight in the large and the liner is too large (specifically the leg width) in the extra large... wish I could blend the two pairs together! If you're on the borderline (I'm 6'3" 190lb and usually wear a 36" waist) for this size chart keep this in mind.

 
Not for me
By JCVerified Reviewer from Boston, MA on 9/5/2007
Sizing:
Feels half size too small
Cons:
Poor Fit
Best Uses:
Mountain Biking
Describe Yourself:
Avid Cyclist
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

For Baggy shorts they were very tight fitting, especially across the front of the shorts. I found the detachable liner annoying as the system for attaching it did not seem well designed. The liner shifted and felt uncomfortable off the bike so I returned the shorts.
