FAQs
Can I machine wash these shorts?
Yes, machine wash on a cold, delicate cycle. Do not tumble dry or iron.
Do these shorts have a specific gender fit?
Yes, these are specifically engineered with an ergonomic cut for the female anatomy.
What is the benefit of the CVP pad technology?
The Continuously Variable Profile (CVP) ensures the pad thickness is tailored precisely to where you need support, reducing bulk in unnecessary areas.
Are these suitable for indoor cycling?
Absolutely. The high-wicking nature of the Italian Lycra makes them very effective for high-intensity indoor sessions where sweat management is critical.
Should I wear chamois cream with these?
While the antibacterial finish is excellent, using a chamois cream is a personal preference and can be used to further reduce friction on very long rides.
Troubleshooting
Shorts riding up the leg during rides
Ensure the skin is clean and free of oils or lotions before putting on the shorts, as these can prevent the silicone grippers from maintaining contact.
Feeling pressure or numbness in the saddle
Check that the shorts are pulled up correctly so the chamois is centered properly under your sit bones. You may also need to adjust your saddle height or fore-aft position.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure maximum longevity and comfort, it is essential to wear these shorts directly against the skin without undergarments. Ensure the silicone grippers lie flat against your skin. For care, wash the shorts in cold water on a delicate cycle using a mild detergent specifically designed for synthetic technical fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the breathability of the Lycra and damage the antibacterial treatment of the chamois. Always air dry the shorts away from direct sunlight to preserve the elasticity of the fabric and the integrity of the gel inserts.
