Frequently Asked Questions about adidas Bike Shorts

Why do cyclists wear bike shorts?

Cyclists wear bike shorts for a few reasons: first, because they fit tight to the skin so that flowing fabric can’t get caught in wheels. Bike shorts often are designed with padding, which makes long rides more comfortable. Also important: Snug-fitting shorts and jerseys help reduce aerodynamic drag for racers. Fitted bike-style shorts can also be great for workouts, yoga or casual wear, with stretchy fabric that’s cut to stay out of your way. Learn how to prevent chafing with the right gear.

How are cycling shorts supposed to fit?

Cycling shorts are supposed to fit snugly. They’re made with stretchy fabric designed to move with you while you’re biking or working out. The hems on cycling shorts generally fall about mid-thigh and have grip or "hold" on the inside to keep the material from riding up. When you cycle, it’s best to avoid loose-fitting shorts that will billow out or could even get caught in a wheel.

Do you wear shorts over bike shorts?

You can wear shorts over bike shorts if the fabric isn’t so long or flowing that it could get caught in a wheel. An option for extra coverage is the skort: a short skirt with a pair of short tights built in. Skorts and short tights are both good options for the casual rider and are commonly seen out on the road.
