Review on πŸƒ BALEAF Men's Thermal Fleece Running Pants Cycling Tights | Long Warm Bike Leggings | Cold Weather Winter Gear for Outdoor Activities by John Kahsar

Revainrating 3 out of 5

How are the cycling shorts?: Tights and pants

First of all I weigh about 180 pounds although I can still fit in 33 inch pants (these might not last through the winter!). medium but based on previous experience with cheap bike gear sizes I went for large. I might find the waist a little loose, the hips are VERY narrow (thighs for cyclists?) and the cuffs are totally loose. Considering that this is a type of "compression cut" (meaning the fabric doesn't stretch as much) I would never do this with a medium. As a result, they're not a substitute for a good pair of Pearl Izumi, but on the flip side, they're affordable and Pearl Izumi aren't. They also feature a running cut at the waist as others have noted. That means they don't go up in the back and down in the front like real cycling shorts should. This isn't a big problem for me as I mostly wear old shorts under unlined pantyhose and garter belts! I remember: just say "no" to hack.

Pros
  • Great fit for me
Cons
  • Ripped
