These pants fit me perfectly, and they have enough room in the knees for pedaling legs and knee pads. They are described as a slim fit, and since I have a fairly straight figure (hips not much bigger than my waist) they fit great. Someone with a more curvy figure might not be so happy with them. My only wish is that they had zippers on the bottoms of the legs so that you could put on and take off knee pads without having to take your pants entirely off.
I was hesitant about the leopard print but purchased it because of the positive reviews and the price (it was on sale). I am glad I did - it is a very cute and comfortable pants- the fit is perfect.
The Maverick Gravity Shorts are perfect to ride in there comfy and my favourite part is the pockets. Big pockets with zips are the best thing for mtb shorts
