FAQs
What is the primary material of these bike shorts?
The shorts are primarily made from a technical blend of 95% Nylon and 5% Elastane.
Are these shorts suitable for intense athletic training?
They are suitable for lighter to moderate activities like yoga, cycling, and general fitness. For very high-intensity or prolonged endurance activities, consider their breathability compared to specialized athletic wear.
How should I determine my size?
Refer to the Rick Owens size guide, paying attention to measurements for waist and hips, as these are fitted shorts.
Can I machine dry these shorts?

These shorts are Made in Italy, indicating high standards of craftsmanship.
How do I style these shorts for a fashion look?
They can be paired with oversized tops, blazers, or worn as a base layer under dresses and skirts for a modern, edgy aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight
Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the brand's sizing chart. The fitted nature is intentional, but if excessively tight, consider the next size up if available and preferred.
Fabric pilling after washing
Follow care instructions precisely, especially washing in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents or high spin cycles. Washing inside out can also help minimize friction.
Elastic waistband losing elasticity
Avoid high heat drying, as this can degrade elastic over time. Stick to the recommended cold wash and low heat or air dry methods.
