Product Overview
The Spiro Padded Bikewear Shorts are a technical necessity for any professional or enthusiast cyclist. Engineered with a sophisticated blend of 80% Polyamide and 20% Elastane, these shorts provide a supportive, contour fit that moves with the body. The integration of high-density silicone insert padding and anti-bacterial fabric ensures that long-distance comfort and hygiene are maintained, whether navigating mountain trails or road circuits. The lightweight construction does not compromise on durability, offering a well-engineered solution for active performance.
Key Features
Cool-Dry performance fabric: This specialized material actively wicks moisture away from the skin, ensuring you remain dry and comfortable during intense physical exertion.
Antibacterial silicone padding: The double-layer fabric pad features a dense silicone insert to provide maximum impact protection and comfort while maintaining high standards of hygiene.
4-way stretch capability: The inclusion of elastane allows for total freedom of movement, ensuring the shorts adapt to your cycling posture without restriction.
Silicone leg grips: These integrated grips prevent the fabric from riding up the leg, maintaining a secure and professional fit throughout your ride.
Internal key pocket: A discreetly placed pocket provides a secure location for essential items, allowing you to focus entirely on the road ahead.
Design & Performance
The technical design of these shorts focuses on anatomical shaping and breathable performance. The micro-stretch soft fabric is exceptionally lightweight, reducing unnecessary bulk while providing a streamlined profile. The quick-drying properties are essential for unpredictable British weather and frequent use, while the reflective Spiro logo on the bottom left leg enhances visibility in low-light conditions. Every panel has been contoured to provide a fit that supports the muscles without being overly restrictive.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
These shorts are suitable for both embroidery and transfer printing, making them an excellent choice for corporate cycling teams or club branding. Embroidery provides a sophisticated, long-lasting finish for company logos or names, ensuring a professional appearance that withstands the rigours of cycling. For larger, more complex designs or sponsor logos, transfer printing offers a bold and vibrant alternative that moves with the stretch of the fabric. Our in-house team at MyWorkwear has been refining these customisation techniques in Telford since 1976, ensuring your branding is applied with precision and care.
Use Cases
These shorts are designed for versatile use across road cycling, mountain biking, and general leisure cycling. They are particularly well-suited for professional athletes requiring reliable training gear or businesses looking to kit out staff for charity cycles and sporting events. Their robust construction and comfortable padding make them ideal for both short sprints and long-distance endurance rides.

Practical Advice
The fit of these shorts is designed to be close to the body for maximum aerodynamic efficiency. When selecting your size, refer to the waist measurements provided, which range from Small (32") to 2XL (40"). For those planning long winter rides, these shorts can be effectively layered under lightweight water-resistant trousers to provide padding without adding significant weight.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical integrity and moisture-wicking properties of your cycling shorts, we recommend a domestic wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove dirt and bacteria without damaging the elasticity of the fabric or the silicone inserts.
Do not iron this garment. The high heat of an iron will melt the synthetic fibres and permanently damage the silicone padding, rendering the shorts unusable. Similarly, avoid bleaching, as harsh chemicals will degrade the polyamide fibres and fade any custom branding.
We advise against dry cleaning or tumble drying. The mechanical heat of a tumble dryer can cause the elasticated waistband and the 4-way stretch fabric to lose their shape. For best results, allow the shorts to air dry naturally, taking advantage of their quick-drying properties.
