3/4 cycling pants - MTBIKER shop

Cycling 3/4 pants are usually designed for colder weather. These pants are suitable for keeping warm and protecting your legs from the elements, while still allowing some air flow. 3/4 pants are typically offered in a loose or slim fit. A tight fit usually combines upper body straps and lower body 3/4 shorts into a single unit. They are often used in competitive cycling events where aerodynamics are crucial.

The main benefits of 3/4 cycling pants are:

Versatility: 3/4 pants are versatile and can be worn in various weather conditions.
Flexibility and mobility: the 3/4 pants are designed with elastic fabrics and have a specific cycling cut that allows unrestricted movement while pedalling. This flexibility guarantees comfortable and efficient cycling.
Protection: The extended 3/4 leg length provides knee protection, which can be beneficial when riding off-road or encountering branches or debris on the trail. It also helps protect your feet from harmful UV rays and reduces the risk of sunburn.
Breathability: Many 3/4 pants feature mesh panels or ventilation zones strategically placed to improve breathability. This ensures proper airflow and helps regulate body temperature, preventing overheating and excessive sweating.
Moisture wicking: Cycling 3/4 pants are often designed to wick away moisture. The fabric wicks sweat away from the body and allows it to evaporate quickly, thanks to which you stay dry and comfortable during intense riding.
