Norah Batty?

Post by Jimmer »

Fed up with Ron Hill Bikesters over cycling shorts for my winter commute/training ride (the two garments did a kind of slip-sliding thing leading to some discomfort), this year I invested in some leg warmers. Trouble is, they tend to work their way down my legs after about 20 mins cycling and end up a bit baggy around my lower leg.

They are full leg length, made by Cannondale and seem a pretty snug fit when I pull them on in the morning. SO, how to wear them? Over or under my shorts, should I pull shorts up higher so the elastic is tighter round my thigh? Nothing seems to help so any suggestions...
Thanks

Hi Jimmer

Are you wearing lycra shorts? If so they're supposed to meet the shorts without a gap so if this is the case i suspect you've got a size too big. If you've got baggies you may be able to get over this by pulling the leg warmers higher but long term maybe sell them while they're still new and get the next size down?
