Comfortable Shorts
These are really comfortable to wear. The chamois padding is quite thick, so if that is what you are after, then these are great.
Women's specific fit and chamois.
Superbly supportive 240gsm lycra construction.
Contour women's seamless chamois.
Double stitched chamois.
Women's Pro WaistBand with broad non-elasticated front band for additional comfort.
Our women's shorts feature our female specific chamois. It is seamless with bi-directional stretch to minimise chafing and the ergonomic dual density padding is designed especially for women.
You might not even notice at first, but the extra effort we put into the finishing details of our garments, such as double stitching the hard wearing areas around the chamois, means they'll last you twice as long.
This fabric has the highest possible sun protection rating of UPF 50+ Excellent Protection.
What is impressive is that it is designed to be a high performance fabric. The fact that it also offers excellent protection with a UPF rating of 50+ shows that you can have performance without the need to compromise on protection.
The female specific Pro Waistband is a broad non-elasticised V shaped section that replaces the elastic around the front of the waistband. With a wider band and no elastic it is designed to be more comfortable and more flattering for all shapes and sizes.

Very comfortable to wear, and the Gearshop service was excellent
These are my first biking shorts so I can't compare but thankfull I got them, they have eliminated pain I was getting from ordinary shorts. They are comfortable, size 16 so I'm not small and found the soft waist doesn't dig in on the tummy. Good length a little above the knee, stay in place really well, thick enough material you don't need over shorts. Only criticism the leg hem is slightly tight became uncomfortable but I presume this will ease after more rides.
Have tried them on and they are a perfect fit. Havnt worn them on a serious ride yet because of being in Lockdown I am just wearing my old pair. Looking forward to trying them out on a longer ride. I have another pair of Tinelli shorts(with the white leg bands) so know that they will comfortable..
