MTB Veneto Shell Short - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I grabbed the MTB Veneto Shell Short for a full day of trail riding and barely noticed it was there, which is exactly the point. The waist gripper kept everything locked in place when things got steep and technical, and the thigh pockets swallowed my phone and a couple of gels without getting in the way of my pedal stroke."

Some kit demands your attention and some kit just gets out of the way. The Capo MTB Veneto Shell Short lands firmly in the second camp, built from an ultralight, breathable shell fabric that practically vanishes the moment you clip in. From the first pedal strokes of a long climb to the last corner of a fast descent, the clean trail cut moves with your body and stays put without ever feeling like it is working against you.

The elastic waist with its silicone gripper on the back is a small detail that pays off in a big way when the terrain turns steep and technical. Two zippered thigh pockets keep your phone, keys, and a gel close without adding pack bulk, and the zippered two-button fly brings a level of finish that holds up to a long day out. Designed to layer over the Capo Cargo Liner Bib Short or go solo on shorter, warmer rides, the Veneto Shell Short is the kind of versatile, no-nonsense piece that earns a permanent spot in the rotation.
