18 cm inseam, stretch woven, one zipped pocket that holds a phone.

three places, three grades

a grade with no reason is not a grade

hikingsuitable: 18 cm inseam clears the knee on a high step; zipped thigh pocket sits clear of a hip belt.
cyclingusable: Free at the knee, but there is no liner and the woven fabric has seams where a saddle sits.
commutingusable: Fine in summer where shorts are acceptable; there is no version of this that reads as formal.

Cycling grades account for back hem length, sleeve length with your arms forward on the bars, and whether there is a rear pocket you can reach. Rear pocket on this piece: yes.

the piece

An 18 cm inseam short in the same stretch weave as the trail pant, with a zipped thigh pocket that actually closes over a phone. No liner.

what it does, and where it stops

how we test

fabric weight: 190 g/m²
garment weight: 232 g in EU 50 / M
water repellency: light — PFC-free DWR, C0 chemistry, applied to the face fabric
when the finish runs out: 20 to 30 machine washes, sooner where a pack or saddle rubs
how you will know: water stops beading and rolls into the weave instead; the face fabric darkens where it soaks in
how to renew it: Wash it clean first, then apply a wash-in or spray-on repellent, then reactivate with a warm tumble dry or a warm iron through a cloth.
hydrostatic resistance (EN ISO 811): Not published.
breathability (EN ISO 11092): Not published.

Inseam 18 cm, all sizes
No liner — wear the merino boxer or the base bottom under it
One zipped thigh pocket, 17 × 13 cm

Garment measurements in centimetres, taken flat. Tolerance ±1 cm — a run of fabric is never exact, and we would rather print the tolerance than pretend it away.
