Description of Endura Zyme 3/4 Bike Short - Men's:
Pull on the Endura Mens’ Zyme 3/4 Bike Short, head for the nearest singletrack, and pedal all your work worries into the ground. These baggy knickers pull double duty during urban assaults. Adjustable waist tabs and articulated knees keep things comfy while you’re crankin’ away in the saddle, and the seamless crotch makes your taint’s day. Endura gave these ¾ MTB shorts a double seat because, well, they’re living up to their name. The Zyme is compatible with Endura’s ClickFast liner short.
Use these shorts as a bike messenger riding 40-60 miles/day Pros: Great fabric that's not going tear easily or show dirt/sweat; 6 pockets to store various bike-related necessities and a wallet; baggy fit for freedom of movement; great for winter riding Cons: Doesn't have belt loops so when there's some weight in the pockets you have to constantly pull them up so they don't slip down, especially while off the bike; the rear pockets aren't large enough for holding a smaller U-lock without it falling out while on the bike; waist tension doesn't stay tight very long, have to re-adjust Overall, I like these shorts and think they will last a long time. However, I just wish I could get them to stop slipping down.

Great Shorts, But Need A Few Improvements 09-16-08
Use these shorts as a bike messenger riding 40-60 miles/day
Pros: Great fabric that's not going tear easily or show dirt/sweat; 6 pockets to store various bike-related necessities including a wallet; baggy fit for freedom of movement; great for winter riding
Cons: Doesn't have belt loops so when there's some weight in the pockets you have to constantly pull them up so they don't slip down, especially while off the bike; the rear pockets aren't large enough for holding a smaller U-lock without it falling out while on the bike; waist tension doesn't stay tight very long, have to re-adjust
Overall, I like these shorts and think they will last a long time. However, I just wish I could get them to stop slipping down.
I once owned a pair, but bought them too large. I went with size L even thought am a big guy. 38" pants, 6', 210 lbs. I use them for hiking in brush and Biking in cool weather. The fabric is as tough like cordura but feels and breathes like Cotton. Wish they came in other camo patterns, I'd buy one of each. Only downside, if you load them up they sag and there are no belt loops. Waist cinches on side slip over the time and miles.
