From Saddle to Street: Mace's 2005 Shorts are Leading the Revolution

Press Release

Although Mace gear has only been around for a few years, the company's innovative approach to riding-wear has rocked the bike industry and revolutionized the way we look at riding apparel.  The crew at Mace started out with one simple goal: to create technical apparel you could wear comfortably on or off the bike. Simply put, these shorts ain't your grand-daddy's lycra.

One pair of shorts that has seen major improvements in 2005 is the Mace Nitrate.  This year's model comes in both a men's and women's cut in black/grey or smoke/grey.  In addition to a lot of fine detailing such as subliminated camo & direct injection logos, Mace has also added waterproof side zippers and a molded airprene rear panel - so your shorts give you total flexibility and movement without the dreaded saddle snag.

Also see the return of the popular Ignition short, in regular and 3/4 length.  The simple lines and colours combined with super durable 330D nylon make the Ignition a versatile short for any rider.

Best of all, every short in this year's Mace line now features a full hydrophobic lining for added comfort – a welcome improvement for any rider that has worn heavy-duty nylon shorts in the past.

As you can see, Mace's unique '05 collection not only looks good, but will stand up to your toughest weather and riding challenges. Sure, reinforced stretch thermal injection airprene, waterproof zippers, and coated, super-durable abrasion resistant fabric probably don't sound much like the last pair of casual shorts you pulled off the rack, but they aren't supposed to – welcome to the revolution.
