How to use: Just put on these pants like you would any regular pair of pants. They're designed to fit comfortably and move with you while you're riding your mountain bike. Notice the ratchet closure at the front, which allows you to adjust the fit easily. The zip thigh pocket is great for storing small items like your keys or a snack. Attention: Avoid sharp objects that could tear the fabric. When you're off the bike, try not to sit on rough or dirty surfaces to keep the pants clean. Maintenance: You can machine - wash these pants in cold water. Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Hang them up using the back yoke rope to dry. Don't use bleach or fabric softeners as they might damage the water - repellent finish and the graphics on the pants.
