Product Information

Getting the appropriate size for your bike shorts is important for comfort and fit. You don’t want them to be too tight or too baggy. Whether you're testing yourself in the gym or heading into the great outdoors, Nike women's cycling shorts are made to move with you. Expect supportive fabrics that provide a smooth, sculpted fit, with four-way stretch for ultimate comfort. Look out for extra-wide waistbands that hold everything securely in place without rolling, pinching or creasing. Plus, neat inner drawcords so you can adjust the shape to suit. The chamois pad is a very important part of the riding shorts. Spending a little extra money on it isn’t a bad idea. Flexibility is a key decider when it comes to these Beroy women’s bike shorts. You move and they move right with you. Running shorts for women are typically broken down into the following three categories: • Compression / cycling-style shorts

The temperature may be dropping, but if you're a member of the 'It's Always Shorts Weather' club, you'll know that braving bare legs year-round requires not only fortitude, but also a brilliant pair of running shorts. If the idea of wearing skintight shorts turns you cold but it's too warm to run in leggings, you do still have options. 2-in-1 shorts can be a great compromise, as they look like classic shorts but they have a tight cycle-style layer underneath to minimise rubbing, while the relaxed outer layer provides extra coverage. '2-in-1 shorts have a longer inner layer which can help prevent chafing, and cover modesty if you don't like wearing something too short,' says Stewart. • Split shorts One thing you have to be careful of is how the bike short fits your body. Many female bikers who’ve used these shorts for women have told me that you have to get the size right, otherwise, you’ll not appreciate them. The fit of your gym shorts is important. They need to be tight enough that they fit your physique perfectly, but not too tight that they’re uncomfortable with movement. If they’re too baggy, they could distract from your workout too. It’s true that the more expensive the bike short, the more technical the fabrics get and the more sturdy the chamois. Work with your budget and get the best value within that price range.
