Why We’re Still Thinking About Bike Shorts

They were a favourite of Princess Diana in the 90s, Madonna wore them on the reg and, if you grew up in the late 80s/ early 90s, we’re betting you did too. Whether you know them as peddle pushers, cycle shorts or plain old bike pants, we want in on these micro leggings.

And we’re far from alone. Kim K has long been a fan, and same-same with Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Emily Ratajkowski and more, more, more. We’ve fallen, hard, for these glute-hugging, gym-optional shorts.

Sportswear turned streetwear is nothing new. It’s practically our manifesto on the daily (especially today) and we’ve got it bad for these crazy comfortable body-con micro-leggings.

In the how-to-style stakes, take a cue from those already on the train, with a bigger-than-big shirt or blazer. Wear them with statement slide or go-to sneakers. And, for the office? Yes, you can. We love a (slightly) longer length and an all-black look. Especially with oversized tailoring. Take your cue from fashion editors or style your own adventure. As always, it’s about going your own way.

Super sleek, crazy comfortable for the win. Added bonus: you’re already dressed for that yoga class...
