What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: "I like these shorts for rides where pedaling efficiency and mobility matter most. The tapered fit stays out of the way, the stretch feels natural on climbs, and the fabric handles sweat and light moisture without getting clammy. They’re clean, comfortable, and purpose-built for trail riding." We pull on the Trail Ripper Short when the ride is all about flow, speed, and clean lines. Volcom built these shorts to move naturally with us on the bike, blending a lightweight recycled fabric with four-way stretch for unrestricted pedaling through technical climbs and fast descents. The slim, tapered fit keeps things streamlined while still offering enough room to move freely on the trail. A water-repellent finish sheds light moisture and trail spray, and zippered pockets keep essentials secure when the terrain gets rough. From quick after-work laps to all-day trail sessions, the Trail Ripper Short keeps comfort and mobility front and center.
