Product Overview
The Build Your Brand Women's high waist cycle shorts are engineered to provide a sophisticated blend of comfort and technical performance. Designed with a contemporary silhouette, these shorts offer a streamlined profile that is essential for modern active work environments.

Utilising a premium natural fibre blend, these shorts deliver a soft touch against the skin while maintaining the structural integrity required for professional wear.
Key Features

- A slim-fit, straight-leg design ensures a professional appearance that contours to the body without restricting range of motion.
- The wide waistband distributes pressure evenly, offering a stable hold that remains comfortable during long shifts.
- The tear-out tag feature allows for easy removal to prevent irritation, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin.
- An inclusive size range from XS to 5XL ensures that all team members can be supplied with consistent, well-fitting workwear.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a stretch interlock fabric composed of 95% cotton and 5% elastane, these shorts are built for durability and flexibility. The interlock knit is a double-knit construction, making it more substantial and opaque than standard single-jersey fabrics. This ensures that the garment maintains its shape and provides full coverage, even when stretched during active tasks.
The medium-weight fabric offers excellent breathability due to its high cotton content, which is vital for temperature regulation in fast-paced environments. The addition of elastane provides the necessary 'snap-back' recovery, ensuring the shorts do not bag or lose their form after repeated wear and washing, thus maintaining a sharp, professional look for longer.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth, stable surface of the stretch interlock fabric makes these cycle shorts an excellent candidate for customisation. For companies looking to add a subtle and enduring brand identity, embroidery is a superior choice. It provides a three-dimensional, high-quality finish that is particularly effective for small logos on the waistband or hem.
Alternatively, for more prominent branding or larger graphics, our professional printing services are highly recommended. The dense knit of the fabric allows for sharp detail and vibrant colours that move harmoniously with the garment. At MyWorkwear, our Telford-based team has been perfecting these techniques since 1976, ensuring that your custom branding is applied with technical precision to withstand the rigours of your daily work.
Use Cases
These shorts are perfectly suited for professionals in the fitness and leisure industries, including gym instructors, personal trainers, and sports coaches. They also serve as an excellent base layer for logistics and warehouse staff who require freedom of movement, or for promotional teams requiring a modern, uniform appearance in warmer environments.

Practical Advice
To ensure the best possible fit, we recommend referring to our size guide, as these shorts are designed with a slim-fit specification. For a complete professional uniform, these shorts pair exceptionally well with a long-line t-shirt or a technical polo shirt, providing a balanced look that is both practical and stylish.
Caring for your product
To maintain the elasticity and professional appearance of your shorts, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C on an easy-care cycle. Washing at lower temperatures protects the elastane fibres from heat damage, which is crucial for maintaining the garment's shape and recovery over time.
Do not use bleach when cleaning this garment. Bleaching agents will weaken the natural cotton fibres and cause the colour to fade, which will negatively impact the appearance of both the shorts and your custom branding. Similarly, these shorts should not be tumble dried; air drying is the best method to prevent shrinkage and ensure the longevity of any printed logos.
If ironing is required, use a cool setting and avoid direct contact with any printed areas. High heat can melt the adhesives used in printing and damage the stretch properties of the fabric. Finally, do not dry clean this item, as the harsh chemicals used in the process are not compatible with the fabric blend or customisation methods.
