Bellwether

Monarch Shorts - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"These are my go-to MTB shorts for anything from long rides to coffee stops post-ride. They stretch where they need to, breathe surprisingly well, and the adjustable waist actually stays put without pinching. Bonus points for the detachable liner—it’s way more comfortable than I expected."

Whether we’re spinning singletrack or grabbing tacos after a ride, the Bellwether Monarch Shorts bring that sweet spot of casual style and ride-focused function. The relaxed fit pairs perfectly with breathable performance, thanks to the EXO-Flex 4-way stretch outer shell and thoughtful gusseted design that eliminates saddle area seams for all-day comfort.

From quick loops to full-day missions, we love the freedom these shorts offer. The mesh-lined waistband keeps things cool, the outer shell gets a moisture-shedding DWR finish, and four total pockets—including a rear waistband stash with MP3 port—keep our essentials right where we need them. A detachable premium mesh liner with built-in chamois provides a smooth ride on the saddle and easy off-the-bike versatility.
