"It's all about the details. The length pairs comfortably with my kneepads and has plenty of room for pedaling." Gearhead Expert Sammy
With endless miles of enduro riding right here in our backyard, including the legendary Empire trail in Park City, we needed a short built to stand up to gnarly descents, trailside brush, and the occasional crash. The Backcountry Empire combines a durable 4-way stretch fabric with an enduro-friendly fit to give us a short that won't restrict us, whether we're tackling a massive rock garden or practicing our whips at the bike park.
