Don't keep this Ace up your sleeve, but under your favourite shorts or pants. The moisture-wicking, stretchy fabric, flat-locked seams and chamois will enhance your riding comfort when worn under mountain bike over-shorts, jeans or trousers.

• Made of polyester jersey with 15% LYCRA® for great stretch and excellent memory.
• Durable wicking finish has a smooth surface and manages moisture for a comfortable ride.
• Volata chamois uses 2D category pads rated for medium distance rides. The centre of the pad is 3mm open-cell foam, and the perimeter is 2mm foam, to put extra cushioning where you need it most. The quick-drying pad offers great stretch and moisture transfer, and has an antimicrobial finish.
• Four-panel construction for a good, sleek fit.
• Low-profile elastic waist reduces bulk.
• Flat-locked seams eliminate chafing.
• Gripper elastic in legs will keep them from rolling up.

Fit guide

Garments, designed for specific activities have features that aren’t always adaptable to general use. For example, cycling clothing is longer in the back and arms. Activity aside, the fit of MEC clothing falls into these categories:

Body fit: tight, with no room to spare.

Slim fit: very close fit, with a bit of room.

Regular fit: generous, but not oversized.

Relaxed fit: oversized with lots of room for layers.

All MEC men’s and boy’s pants are regular rise.
