Skins Cycle Shorts
The cycling short provides all of the compression benefits, wrapping the quad, hamstring and glutes. It supports the drive train of the cycling movement. It is the bib-short without the top part. Simple!
The Cycle Shorts utilise medium compression benefits, ensuring that more oxygen is delivered to those hardworking thighs while increasing muscle stability and support during your cycling. An incredibly soft and padded seat will mean that long days on the saddle will remain enjoyable, with a reduced risk of irritation caused by rubbing and chafing. With wide-leg tapes, this will still provide a tight fit, but won't feel restrictive or uncomfortable. A good level of stretch is supplied, and the shorts will give you a comfortable fit that will allow stretch to move with you in the saddle. Moisture-wicking properties have been included to wick away sweat and moisture to keep you feeling dry and comfortable and focused on the competition ahead.
Size Guide
Forget your usual size. Use the Skins size guides to determine what fit, for what product, is best for you.
Bordering two sizes? Suppose when finding out your size from the guides below, you sit on the line between two sizes. If that's the case, Skins recommend choosing the smaller size for tights, if you have an athletic body type, otherwise chose the larger size. Skins always recommend choosing the larger size for tops. If you need further guidance in selecting the right size, get in touch with our customer service team - they'll be more than happy to help.
Choosing the right size for Compression Sportswear is very important, so if you're not sure, talk to us!
How To Wear SKINS Tights
If you're trying to get into a pair of Long Tights, Skins suggest you scrunch them up from the waist down to the ankle and put one foot in first - the same as you would do if you were putting on a pair of pantyhose. Do the same on the other leg. Then gradually pull each leg up - taking care to keep the seams running up your legs as you go.
