Ether 9 Short + Essential Liner

Blending high-tech features, understated styling, and long-ride worthy comfort, the Zoic Ether Shorts are the ideal companion for your next day on the trails. Arguably the most important feature of the Ether short is its Essential Liner with Zioc's Comfort chamois. This high-quality, multi-desity, stretch chamois cushions impacts and reduces vibrations in the saddle. The liner is also fully removable, which makes the Ether extremely versatile for on-trail trail and chamois-free style at the post-ride burrito stop, or even turn your favorite pair of casual shorts into ride-worthy attire.


The Ether's list of features doesn't end with its removable chamois liner, though. The body of the Ether is made with a stretchy, moisture-wicking material that won't bind or limit your range of motion, and Zoic tapes the seams to create a smooth surface that eliminates chafing. The Fusion Gusset inseam further increases the short's range of motion and eliminates seat hang-ups, while vents below the waistband in the back and down the legs promote airflow so you can stay cool on hot days of riding.

Zoic Ether shorts

Familiarity:
I returned this product before using it

Shorts fit smaller than indicated on the web site. Sizing chart said 3XL would fit sizes 44-46" waist, im a 44 and shorts were much too small. I will be returning them.

I expected more from Zoic. Loved the look and feel but holes appeared in the cheap fabric after just one ride. No wrecks or anything. Disappointed in the quality. Backcountry was great about exchanging for another brand. Won't buy Zoic again.

Haven?t taken them out for a ride yet, but out of the bag, they are a perfect fit for me, and I?m a tough cookie to fit. Short legs. Anyway the real reason for the review is that I ordered the ?fresh? color. Fun fact: Fresh is not yellow. They are actually orange. Not sending back because I really could care less about the color difference and they fit so well. Just wanted to put it out there about the difference in color.
