Collection: Cycling shorts (Men)
A good pair of men's cycling shorts is essential for every cyclist. Whether you're training for a sporty ride, are a dedicated cyclist, or regularly ride recreationally, well-fitting cycling shorts increase comfort, prevent chafing, and ensure you get the most out of every ride.
Why choose men's cycling shorts?
Cycling without the right clothing can lead to discomfort, chafing, or even injuries. Specially designed men's cycling shorts with a chamois offer support where needed, wick moisture, and protect your skin during long or intense rides. The benefits at a glance:
- Optimal seat support thanks to high-quality chamois
- Close-fitting for aerodynamics and freedom of movement
- Prevents chafing and irritation due to flat seams and elastic fabrics
- Breathable materials that provide cooling and moisture regulation
Types of cycling shorts for men
1. Men's cycling shorts with chamois
The most common version. Ideal for rides of 1 to 5+ hours thanks to the built-in chamois that reduces pressure points and provides comfort. Prevent chafing between your skin and your pants with Chamois Cream .
2. Men's bib shorts (with suspenders)
Men's bib shorts are popular among athletic cyclists. Thanks to the bib straps, the shorts stay perfectly in place without pinching the waist. They also distribute pressure evenly across the shoulders.
3. Cycling shorts without bibs
Practical, quick to put on and take off, and comfortable for short(er) rides or if you don't like the "tight look" of bib shorts.
4. Compression cycling shorts
Suitable for avid cyclists. They provide extra muscle support and help improve blood circulation during and after exercise.
What is important when choosing men's cycling shorts?
- The chamois: Choose a chamois that suits the duration of your rides. For long distances, a thicker, ergonomically shaped model is recommended.
- Fit and size: The pants should be snug but not constricting. Try different brands for the best fit.
- Season: Summer cycling shorts are lightweight and breathable. For cooler weather, there are versions with windproof panels or combinations with leg warmers.
- Grip: Anti-slip edges on the legs prevent the trousers from riding up.
- Reflective details: Increase visibility on the road, especially during evening rides.
