FAQs

What activities are these shorts best suited for?

The Montane Volantis 7" Shorts are ideal for running, hiking, scrambling, and other high-intensity outdoor activities where freedom of movement and breathability are paramount.

Are these shorts waterproof?

No, these are softshell shorts, meaning they are highly breathable and water-resistant to a degree, but not fully waterproof.

How do I know what size to order?

Refer to the Montane sizing chart available on their website. Measure your waist and hips according to the instructions provided.

Can I wear these in cold weather?

While breathable, they are lightweight. They can be worn in cooler conditions layered over thermal base layers, but are primarily designed for mild to warm weather or high-exertion activities where body heat is generated.

What is the inseam length?

These are the 7" version of the Volantis shorts, referring to the approximate inseam length.

How many pockets do these shorts have?

The Montane Volantis 7" Shorts feature YKK zipped hand pockets.

What is the material composition?

The shorts are made from 87% Nylon and 13% Elastane, providing durability and stretch.

Troubleshooting

Zipper on pocket is stiff

Gently use a graphite pencil lead on the zipper teeth or a small amount of wax to lubricate. Avoid excessive force.

Shorts feel restrictive

Ensure the waistband is correctly adjusted. The 4-way stretch fabric should allow for full range of motion; check if any specific movement feels genuinely impeded, which may indicate a fit issue.

Fabric pilling after washing

This can sometimes occur with technical fabrics. Ensure you are washing inside out, on a cool setting, and avoiding abrasive materials in the same wash load.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement due to 4-way stretch fabric.
  • Very lightweight, ideal for endurance activities.
  • Highly breathable, preventing overheating.
  • Durable construction for demanding use.
  • Secure storage with YKK zipped pockets.

Cons

  • Minimalist design may lack sufficient pocket space for some users.
  • 7-inch inseam might be too short for those preferring longer shorts.
  • Primarily designed for athletic pursuits, less suitable for casual wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These shorts require no specific setup; they are ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure the waistband is adjusted comfortably for your activity.

Compatibility: Designed for active use, they are compatible with various athletic base layers and outerwear. The neutral design and black color family make them versatile.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance and longevity of your Montane Volantis Shorts:

  1. Washing: Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent.
  2. Detergents: Avoid fabric softeners and bleach, as they can degrade the fabric's technical properties.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Avoid direct heat sources.
  4. Ironing: Do not iron.
