With the 7Mesh Men's Glidepath shorts, you don't have to worry if the mud splashes up, at least above the knees. Thanks to the water-repellent impregnation, water and mud simply roll off. If the shorts do get wet, the stretch fabric dries quickly thanks to its good moisture wicking properties. The thigh-length legs are cut so that you don't get caught on the saddle when pedaling and they are compatible with most non-downhill knee pads.
