Men's Summit Pants
Men's Summit Pants
Built for big days on the bike and rowdy descents, the Men's Summit Pant delivers breathable coverage for riders who want a bit more protection without sacrificing mobility. Made from a lightweight, durable recycled fabric and finished with a PFAS-free PI Dry® DWR coating, it resists light moisture and debris while staying cool and unrestrictive in warm temps.
Laser-perforated inner leg panels enhance ventilation where you need it most, while a G-hook adjustable waistband provides a streamlined, sag-free fit without bulk. Designed to move with you on the bike, it's also kneepad compatible and tailored to pedal smoothly whether you're climbing singletrack or carving downhill. Two zippered Trail Access™ pockets keep essentials secure and out of your pedal zone.
Pair with your preferred liner shorts underneath for added support. A versatile pick for spring to fall rides, this pant is a staple in the Ride 365 system, ready to roll in whatever conditions you chase.

USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.

Reviews
Comfortable and breathing
"Solid pant, comfortable and airing. Size slightly large, I ordered 36 for the length but waist slightly large. still works"
Great buy
"Work how I want them to work. In North Florida so it doesn't get cold enough for lined pants, but these do the job on the "cold" mornings whether commuting on or the trail. The fit is great and they are quite comfy. Haven't had them long enough to see how well they will hold up on the trail, but hope to see that soon."
Odd Fit - Best Suited for Trim Builds
"I have very muscular legs and these were tight on my calves which made the whole pant tug downward. I had sized up to leave room for padded bike shorts. Nothing felt right. I think these are a pant that needs to be tried on in a store as the fit is so atypical. Also, I didn’t like the color. I’m over black black and more black or dull grays."
My favorite pants!
"Not just my favorite bike pants, favorite pants to wear at all. I wear them most for MTB rides but they are so comfy I often keep wearing them long after the ride is done! Caution: They are fairly easy to tear. I've torn them in crashes and when catching the tire with my butt. I've send them to Pearl Izumi and they fixed up a couple holes and they came out great! I wear these when it's cool, and also when it's warm if I'm not pedaling too hard. I ride where poison oak and ticks are a significant problem, and this helps keep both off me without getting too hot. This spring I've worn them for every ride on my eMTB even up to 75º because they are so lightweight that I'm still comfy since I'm not pedaling too hard. Winter time I wear these as well unless it's quite cold or very wet."

Stylist and Functional
"Fits well and the cut of the garmet is on point. Very comfortable in the leg and waistband with G-hook. Lasers cuts let in a lot more air than I thought, the material is also just superb."

"Amazing pants. Insanely light for what it is. Very comfy and stretchy material. Fits a lil roomy so pads are fine with it. However i doubt it would last after a nasty crash."
