The Hummvee shorts have been a long standing member of the Endura clothing line up, so we decided to subject them to 3 tough years of riding and see what state they were in after! Continue reading to see how they got on or head over to read the original article in issue #017.
Endura has a rep for creating affordable yet longlasting products, and the Hummvee shorts are no exception, more than living up to their namesake – after three heavy years of riding, they barely show any signs of use. They come with two clever Velcro pockets on the upper legs, two smaller ones for keys and knickknacks, as well as two regular zipped pockets that held their own against the dust and sand of a Bolivian adventure on the Altiplano. Both side air vents do their jobs like pros. The attachable chamois liner was flung straight to the back of the wardrobe as soon as it got home, and so too was the belt; the waistband offered enough flexibility and kept the shorts up on its own! In short: comfy, sensible pockets, ultra-
robust, good value – what more could you want?
