Keep an eye on the sales bin in your LBS? Wait 'til January?

The NZO shorts T7 sell are pretty nice too, wear knicks under 'em for some padding if you feel the need. Just had a look on there though and they are all out of stock right now Sad

I've just sent back 2 sets of Fox Zephyr trail shorts to T7 in 32" and 34" sizes - I find cotton rather hot to ride in and prefer polyester for its sweat wicking properties.

If you're not so fussy as me, they'd make a good general wear pair of shorts with mtb-friendly functionality. They came with a set of detachable inners with what looked to me like a good quality chamois. They were on special at $79-99 each.

+1 to NZO shorts. +1 to wearing knicks underneath! Smiling

These have just come up on special. No liners, but you can buy them separately:

They have a short crutch - so none of the snagging on the seat like with normal boardies which can put you at risk of going OTB

Is all really good, I own about 20 pcs of Nzo and love it.
It's comfy well thought out gear that lasts very well and I think they should sponsor me.
The Aircon stuff is great in summer.

Torpedo 7 have another special going with Fox shorts. This time, being the right material, I've ordered a pair for myself and Josh.

Be quick, they usually sell out of the popular sizes quickly.
