Cycling Shorts Black 4D Padded Bike Shorts for Women Cycling Breathable Absorbent Quick-Dry Cycling Bike Cycling Gear

i rode with Rion's long biking tights, liked them a lot, and i finally got to wear these today. initially i did not like the mesh fabric that surrounds the abdomen. it was not tight enough and with every step off the bike, i had to hike them up. i do not think they are too big, the rest fits pretty perfect. but, to my surprise they stayed exactly where they should have for my 25 mi ride. with other brands i have had to pull them up at one point of my ride, not these, they actually were great in staying put. that said, i still may install a tie in the waist band, as they really don't stay where i want them when off the bike.there are 2 mesh inserts on each leg, I'm not thinking i like this very much. as for "venting", i doubt this really vents much at all. what it does is makes the legs somewhat less compressive, and i think i would like those eliminated, especially the long one that starts behind the knee and goes up to the top of your butt. it also a bit too revealing for me. i know that this is a style now, a lot of exercise tights have this feature, i don't like it. would rather have the compression that i like for biking bottoms. it's not a deal breaker, i will wear these, but i sew and think i will close that area up.the pad - pretty good. like the long pants, i think the pad could use some tweaking, especially in the front. road riders lean forward, and this is the area that needs well executed padding. i did not get as sore as i did wearing the long pants, but i also have been riding more and my comfort may be due to increased saddle time, not the chamois. i was pleasantly surprised that the chamois worked out pretty well.leg openings, pretty good. i have normal sized lower legs, maybe a bit more muscular due to years on the bike, the leg stayed put, it was compressive but not uncomfortable. i will not need to clip the opening with a scissor for comfort, it seems good.as for the white design on the leg - i could take it or leave it. i always look for colors, as i am sick of black, but most biking pants with color or design are not adequate for a rider in the saddle for significant time. they seem more stylish than functional. i will stay with the black until somebody makes something worth buying.so - definitely worth the price, i have no idea how they will hold up for the long run, but will give them a lot of saddle time and report back later.ps - i wear an xs in terry, and pearl, a small in castelli - as per the size chart i went with a medium and they fit well. i am 5'5", weight about 135 and wear a 6-8 pant. hope this helps.

Love the fit and style. After the first wash the padding in the back turned somehow and now whenever I put them on they need to be readjusted and slid back into the right position. Which can be annoying especially since the bulk of the padding is in the back. Ideally these kinds of pants would have better padding in the front for forward sitting but that's hard to find anywhere.

I know bike shorts should fit snug, but some are ridiculous in the waist.. These are great, just tight enough, great support.

They are comfy but completely see through. Seems like good quality otherwise, I just can’t wear them in public. Will be ok for using my trainer at home.

These fit great, the material is a little thinner than most and the sides have cool see-through areas that are delicate so be careful pulling them on and avoid tearing the sides.

These fit really well and are good quality. The description was accurate. They arrived on schedule.

Rather snug in the thighs and loose in the waist. I haven't decided if I like them yet. The sheer panel concerns me as Im concerned it will tear. Padding is comfortable on the short ride I wore them on. Will revise this weekend after a significantly longer ride.

Exactly what hey say they are, Capri biking pants. Super comfy even with compression. Only drawback for me, is that I wish it had a drawstring at the waist. Other than that, decent buy if you’d like a little more coverage on your bike- on the road, in a class or on your trainer.
