Cycling Shorts

Cycling shorts are a critical piece of clothing when cycling. Just as important as a good saddle, cycling shorts have a decisive impact on whether the ride is enjoyable or torturous. Whoever rides on a saddle for hours on end should ensure that shorts and seat upholstery provide optimal comfort and functionality. Different functional materials which are kind on the skin due to being hygienic and keep friction and pressure to a minimum in the exposed areas of the abdominal region have proven to be effective as seat cushioning. If skin irritation initially occurs and excoriations then appear, then the pleasure of cycling is soon over. It is important that the foam padding has as few seams as possible and has a good cushioning effect. Shorts should be close-fitting and comfortable at the same time. Optimal transport of humidity is only ensured if the functional fibres are in direct contact with the skin, Patented micro-fibres which allow for optimal breathability, correct fit and elasticity are used. All those who wish to avoid tight-fitting cycling shorts, but nevertheless do not want to forego the advantages of traditional cycling shorts may use so-called bike shorts. The loose-cut cycling shorts have the appearance of casual shorts but have integrated cycling shorts and padding. They are just as comfortable to wear as traditional cycling shorts but they are “cooler” in terms of style and not as body-hugging.
