The Shredder Camo MTB Shorts: Common Questions
How does the Shredder Camo differ from the standard Shredder?
The Shredder Camo is the same short as The Shredder in every functional respect — identical construction, identical $69 price, identical feature set including the ClickFast detachable Coolmax padded undershorts, rear comfort stretch panel, two zippered front pockets, and adjustable waist sizing straps. The only difference is the colorway. Where the standard Shredder comes in solid colors (black, grey), the Camo version offers Green Camo and Black Camo patterns for riders who prefer a camo aesthetic on the trail. If you have already read through the standard Shredder details and simply prefer a camo look, this is your version — no functional trade-offs either direction.
Why do some mountain bikers prefer camo shorts?
Camo in MTB apparel appeals for a few distinct reasons beyond pure aesthetics. Functionally, camo patterns hide trail dirt, mud splatter, and general grime far better than solid dark colors — what reads as a stain on a solid black short is visually absorbed into the pattern on a camo short, which matters for riders who spend long days on muddy trails and do not want their kit looking trashed after a single ride. In the woods, camo also blends naturally with the environment, which some trail riders and bikepacking enthusiasts prefer. The Black Camo leans toward a more urban-compatible look that works off the bike in casual settings, while the Green Camo is the more traditional outdoor aesthetic that reads as trail gear regardless of context.
Green Camo or Black Camo — which should I choose?
The choice comes down to where and how you ride and what you want the shorts to do off the bike. Green Camo is the natural trail aesthetic — it works in wooded environments, blends with Ozarks hardwood forest terrain, and reads clearly as outdoor recreational gear. It pairs well with neutral jerseys and most MTB kit colors. Black Camo is more versatile across both trail and casual contexts — it reads less as dedicated cycling kit and more as athletic wear, which makes it the better choice for riders who transition from trail to town without changing clothes. Both patterns handle dirt and grime well due to the visual complexity of the pattern. If you primarily ride in forested environments and prioritize trail aesthetics, Green Camo is the natural fit. If you want one pair of shorts that crosses trail and casual use without looking out of place in either, Black Camo covers more ground.
How do I size the Shredder Camo correctly?
The Shredder Camo uses individual waist measurements for sizing rather than ranges — Small is 28 inches, Medium is 30, Large is 32, XL is 34, 2XL is 36, and 3XL is 38. The sizing runs small and Urban Cycling Apparel has updated the size chart to reflect this directly after early buyer feedback. The practical guidance is: if your measured waist falls exactly at a size boundary, order the larger size. If your waist is between two measurements — say 31 inches between Medium and Large — order the Large. The adjustable waist sizing straps give you room to tighten the waistband once the shorts are on, so erring toward larger is less problematic than being too small. Measure your actual waist rather than relying on your jeans size, which is often an inch or two smaller than actual waist measurement due to how denim sits.
Are these shorts suitable for activities beyond mountain biking?
Yes — the Shredder Camo's construction makes it genuinely multi-purpose in a way that dedicated road cycling kit is not. The baggy fit and four-way movement of the fabric work naturally for trail hiking, light scrambling, gravel cycling, enduro riding, and motocross. The adjustable waist and rear stretch panel are also beneficial for hiking since they accommodate the full range of leg extension on steep terrain. The ClickFast padded liner can be removed entirely for hiking or casual use where chamois padding is unnecessary. Riders who use the Ozarks' multi-use trail systems — mixing singletrack bike segments with sections that require walking or hiking across technical features — find the Shredder Camo handles both modes well without the compromises of a short designed exclusively for either discipline.
How do I care for camo shorts to keep the pattern vibrant over time?
Camo patterns on performance fabric use dye-sublimated or printed construction — the pattern is bonded into the fabric rather than sitting on top as a surface treatment, which means normal washing does not cause the pattern to peel or crack. To keep the colors vibrant, wash cold on a gentle cycle and turn the shorts inside out before washing to protect the outer surface from friction against other garments. Avoid fabric softener, which coats the moisture-wicking fibers and dulls the finish of the outer fabric over time. Hang dry rather than tumble drying — heat accelerates color fading in any dyed fabric, and the shorts will retain their vibrancy significantly longer with air drying. Do not wash with chlorine bleach. The ClickFast padded liner should be washed more frequently than the outer shell and can be detached and washed separately, which protects the outer shell from the more aggressive washing the liner benefits from after every ride.

Great riding shorts! Once you get them properly adjusted to your waist you're good to go. They look good, feel good and the oversized pad in the undershorts ensure that you stay very comfortable. Pockets are helpful too. Very happy with my purchase and the high level of customer service!
