This is my second pair of the NF shorts and I am in love with them. The fit is bang on and the fabric is light and stretchy. There is no issue with the shorts staying up during a ride and they have all the features a person needs, zipper phone pocket, deep pockets for a pair of gloves, and they even stretch enough to put a can of soda in the pocket if you hands are full at the apres.
I've been consistently riding NF shorts since the i3 iteration. These are my first pair of Lazerlite trail shorts, and I am amazed at how light and stretchy they feel. In the words of Ned Flanders "feels like I'm wearing nothing at all". These are my new go-to riding shorts.
Sometimes the arms need coverage during the warmer summer days. I usually wear my NF merino tops, but the SVG jersey is perfect for the warm days when a long-sleeve shirt is desired. Great fit and happy with the clean looks.
