Cycling Leg Warmers Information

Disclaimer: cycling leg warmers aren’t even half as cool as the neon turquoise pair that you have in your closet. However, they will turn your trusty bib shorts into a pair of tights! All you do is slip them on, tuck the elastic gripper underneath the hem of your shorts, and zip the zippered closure at the ankle. Lycra leg warmers are made of thin material that provides a layer of coverage in cool weather. For colder weather, insulated leg warmers are your best bet because they have a thermal interior that traps heat next to the skin. Just like most cycling clothing, leg warmers are made of stretchy, moisture-wicking fabrics, and some feature windproof and water resistant panels. An articulated knee or multiple fabric panels accommodate the pedaling motion. If you are looking for an inexpensive and easy way to extend your riding season (and you are more American Flyers than Flashdance), leg warmers might be for you!
