These cycle shorts are made from a heavy-duty (much heavier than the fabric used in our bodysuits and base-layer shirts), stretchy, slightly shiny fabric comprising 90% nylon and 10% elastane. They have flat seams at the front and back, and a diamond-shaped reinforced area at the junction of the seams at the crotch, along with a wide, flat waistband. The photo shows them paired with our own L4M
450 STW sheers. Ideal for sports wear, running, cycling, etc, or just for casual, comfortable everyday wear. Made in Asia, to Legwear4Men specification, by a leading sportswear manufacturer.
They are available in Black, in sizes M, L & XL. M = 32-34" waist, L = 34-36", and XL = 36-38", however, due to the extremely stretchy nature of the fabric used, it is not so much a question of whether they will fit or not, as to how close-fitting you want them to be. NB L & XL out of stock.
