Our padded cycling shorts are built to keep you comfortable mile after mile, whether you're tackling weekend miles on the road or commuting across the UK in all weathers. From padded bib shorts to waist styles, this collection covers men's cycling shorts with the fit, coverage and pad technology to suit riders of every level, so you can spend less time thinking about discomfort and more time enjoying the ride.
A pad for every kind of ride
At the heart of every pair sits the Altura 3D Plus pad, designed with multi-density foam to support you through longer rides without pressure points. Our Progel Plus range takes this further with a shaped, anatomically contoured pad for extended endurance rides, while lighter Airstream shorts use a slimmer pad suited to shorter commutes and casual outings. Whichever you choose, the padding works with a supportive, second-skin fit rather than against it, helping to reduce chafing and keep you focused on the road ahead.
Bib or waist, the choice is yours
Some riders prefer the secure, no-slip hold of bib straps, others want the simplicity of pulling on a waist short before heading out the door. Our Endurance and Progel Plus bib shorts use wide, breathable mesh straps for freedom of movement across the shoulders, while our waist shorts, including the Progel Plus women's cargo style, offer a practical alternative with a comfortable elasticated waistband and, in some cases, useful cargo pockets for essentials close to hand.
Built to move with you
Every short in this collection uses stretch fabric panelling shaped to the body, giving a relaxed yet supportive fit that moves with you through every pedal stroke. Flatlock seams reduce rubbing on longer rides, while grippers at the leg hem keep everything in place without digging in, so the fit stays secure and comfortable whether you're out for an hour or all afternoon.
