Dawson Short - Women's

A gusseted crotch is a triangular or diamond-shaped piece of fabric sewn into the crotch area of shorts or pants. This design feature enhances comfort and flexibility, allowing for a greater range of motion while biking. It prevents the fabric from straining, making it easier to pedal and sit comfortably.

Durable Water Repellent (DWR) is a treatment applied to fabrics that helps repel water, making them resistant to light rain and wet conditions. While it won't make the fabric completely waterproof, it significantly reduces water absorption, keeping you drier during outdoor activities like trail riding.

'Trail fit' refers to a specific cut of clothing designed for outdoor activities such as mountain biking or hiking. It strikes a balance between comfort and performance, allowing for easy movement without excess fabric that could snag on branches or obstacles. This fit ensures you can focus on your activity without distractions.

The inseam measurement indicates the length of the inner seam of the shorts, from the crotch to the bottom hem. A 13-inch inseam provides adequate coverage while still being suitable for active movement, like biking. This length helps ensure comfort and prevents chafing during rides.

Zippered side pockets are designed to securely store small items like keys, snacks, or a phone while you're on the move. The zipper closure prevents your belongings from falling out or getting lost during your ride, adding convenience and practicality to your biking experience.

Absolutely! While these shorts are designed with biking in mind, their comfortable fit, durable materials, and practical features make them suitable for a variety of outdoor activities, including hiking, running, or casual wear. You can enjoy versatility in your wardrobe with these functional shorts.
