How to Choose Ladies Cycling Shorts You’ll Love

So many different things to think about exist when choosing ladies cycling shorts you’ll love riding in. That’s why we have assembled the perfect blog post to help you find your perfect fit.

In the world of SCODY’s women’s cycling shorts, we want to help find your goldilocks shorts that are just right! Let’s find out how!

Snug but Not Restrictive

The key word here is definitely snug! You want your shorts to feel like a second skin without any bagginess or weird lumps and bumps in the fabric. Smooth and non restrictive shorts provide a comfortable ride without compromising your aerodynamics!

Quality Fabric

Technical fabrics are our specialty, so you can easily find breathable materials. These fabrics offer great UPF protection to keep you comfortable in the saddle all year long.

For winter, you might choose a different pair of shorts. These shorts use special fabric that keeps heat in but still breathes well. On the other hand, we will design your summer shorts to be breathable and sunproof!

Don’t Forget the Chamois

All our bibs and knicks have a brilliant Italian designed chamois to keep you comfortable even on the longest rides. The chamois is something you really cannot compromise on unless you want some rather nasty saddle sores. Think breathable and padded and in our case antimicrobial!

How Long is a Pair of Shorts?

How long do you want your inseam? What kind of riding do you do? Measure your favorite pairs of shorts or your legs.

Decide how long you want your new shorts to be. Go for a longer inseam if you prefer longer shorts and don’t be afraid to rock short shorts if that’s your thing!

Bibs or Knicks?

If you can't stand the feeling of a waistband or need something extra to hold up your shorts, consider knicks. When choosing shorts, consider a waistband with a silicone gripper. This feature helps stop slipping and sliding while you ride.

Pockets and Nutrition Storage

If you’re racing or riding for longer distances it’s good to think about what your storage situation will look like. Pockets and nutrition storage can greatly affect your ride. That’s why SCODY has worked hard to perfect the size and placement of our storage pockets.

Shorts That Last

You want shorts that will last more than one riding season. That’s why it’s important to buy from high-quality cycling brands like SCODY.

Our women's cycling kit is made to last. You can trust that you will enjoy it for many seasons of riding!

Effortless Style

Of course you also want to be riding in shorts which are flattering or even fit in with the rest of your team’s kit. For custom kit SCODY has plenty of awesome options to help you design kit that’ll make you stand out in the peloton. We also use sublimation printing technology so none of our funky designs will ever crack or fade with wear!
