I bought these shorts in December of 2012 and I am amazed at how comfortable they are.  I have several pairs of shorts from Zoic, Canari and Pearl.  These are by far the best pair of MTB shorts I have.  The liner isn't the best, but it doesn't matter because I have several other liners that I can use.  The material that the shorts are made of holds up to riding, blood, washing and wipeouts.  The fabric also stretches well, which makes for a comfortable ride.  Also, the pockets have zippers, so you can carry your phone, keys or whatever you need without fear of losing it.  Sizes may run a little large.  Much rawkage.
