If you're after a pair of baggy shorts that do it all, you've just found them.
Madison's Trail Shorts are made from a super durable ripstop fabric with a four way stretch lumbar panel to give you total freedom of movement.
But, it's the frills that make these shorts so epic (not literally frills, don't worry!). They boast 5 zipped pockets as well as a generous drop-in pocket; they are double and triple needle stitched in all the places where you might otherwise worry about construction; and, if this wasn't enough, the belt buckle doubles as a bottle opener.

Madison started as a company way back in 1977 as a small bike shop based in North West London. Since then, that single shop has evolved into one of the UK's top distributors of bicycle parts and accessories, responsible for getting dozens of cycling brands to retailers.
Aside from all the other brands they sell, Madison's own brand of cycling kit has become one of the most trusted and widely-recognised names in cycling. Their original niche within the mountain biking world has broadened to cover all cycling disciplines, including road, commuting and touring - and their commitment to female cycling has accelerated so fast that eventually we could no longer resist!
Madison gear is hard wearing, well priced and beautifully designed too, with a strong, feminine design thread running through the whole range. It's great kit at great prices.
We aim to dispatch all orders within 2-3 working days, often sooner. Within the UK we use Royal Mail's Tracked 48 service - you will receive a tracking code with your order.
Next Day Delivery (guaranteed by 12pm with Royal Mail) is available on some products when ordered before 1pm. This option will be shown next to the specific product when available.
If your particular size is not shown, feel free to contact us by email at contact@velovixen.com. Please note some deliveries may take longer if we need to order a product in.
