Gore Explore Shorts
Embrace adventure in these soft, tailored yet rugged, shorts with added spray protection.
The ideal combination of protection, style and versatility for gravel riding, adventure and bike packing. Wear alone or over padded inner shorts.
When you venture away from the pure Tarmac your kit and clothing demands change. These shorts use a stretch woven fabric, completely new to Gore Wear, that has allowed us to create a functional all day riding short, with a stream-lined silhouette. Thanks to its stretch we can use a closely tailored fit whilst maintaining complete freedom for your pedalling movement. A rear panel provides water resistant protection from wheel spray, helping to keep your shorts dry and grit free.

FIT
Our products are engineered for optimal performance whether you are exercising or competing. As such the fit of the product varies depending on the purpose and the materials of the garment. Please consider the fit when choosing the correct size for you.
Slim Fit
With a tighter fit that hugs close to the body Slim Fit garments are designed to minimize air resistance and reduce bulk as well as maximize the material properties (e.g. breathability, moisture management, etc.) If unsure you may want to take a larger size of these products than you would usually buy.
Form Fit
Not skin tight, but also not excessively baggy, Form Fit garments provide a sporting silhouette without being body hugging. If you normally fall halfway between two sizes we recommend taking the larger one.
Active Fit
Designed with a bit looser fit, these products suit a wide range of wearers while still delivering the unique benefits of GORE® Wear garments. With these products the size you usually buy should fit just fine.
