Published April 16th, 2024


Obviously, the kids are mom’s most precious gifts. She might be saying that all she wants on her day is your presence, but here’s a few great gifts for the outdoorsy mothers that celebrate everything great she loves. Scroll on for our top gifts for the mountain biker, runner, hiker, camper, climber, and do-it-all adventure mothers.

Gifts For Mountain Biker Moms

 

Every mom is rad, but the ones who pedal the trails and inspire everyone in the family? They deserve gear that helps them keep the pace, just like they keep us pedaling through a life well-loved.

Backcountry 9in Slickrock Bike Short

 

Keep them pushing the limit and power their passion with a short that’s almost as resilient as they are. This bike-specific fit made with stretchy recycled fabric is unrestricting at every turn. It breathes for cooling comfort on the saddle, and it’s DWR-treated to fend off the elements, just like she fends off anything that could harm her loved ones.

Backcountry Button-Up MTB Jersey

 

Moms tend to bite off more than most of us average humans can handle, and this shirt is built for the do-it-all superheroes like them. It’s equally comfortable on the trail as it is on the town, so mom can look good and feel great during a full day of doing the impossible—whether it's on the bike or on the go.

She’s never not worrying about your well-being, so it’s only appropriate that we show her that the feeling is mutual. This knee guard is durable, and while its longevity can’t compete with her everlasting love, it might just be the inspiration she needs to join you on your favorite trail. But whatever run she’s on, you’ll both have the security you need to account for everyone’s safety.
