Cycling shorts are short, tight-fitting knee-length shorts designed to improve comfort and efficiency when playing sports or cycling . Cycling shorts reduce wind resistance when riding a bicycle , protect the skin from abrasion, remove sweat and moisture from the skin, and prevent skin scuffs .
As a rule, modern cycling shorts are made of fabrics that combine different proportions of polyamide and lycra . Cycling shorts are available in various colors and cuts. Male and female models of cycling shorts use a different cut, taking into account the features of anatomy.
Most cycling shorts use the so-called “diapers” - a special insert in the groin area of the cycling shorts that removes moisture, prevents rubbing and serves as an additional shock absorber that protects the cyclist from shocks and bumps.
