Discomfort lives long in the memory, and few riders will forget the experience of wearing a badly-fitted knee warmer miles from home.

As with our arm and neck warmers, the GRS-certified recycled main fabric plays a key role, with the brushed-back microfibre finish retaining a warm feeling on the skin even when wet - essential in an area directly in the firing line of front wheel splash damage.

The 3-panel ergonomic construction allows us to reduce the amount of fabric used on the rear of the warmer, which helps to limit bunching behind the knee when pedalling. This is the key source of rubbing for knee warmers and cycling tights.

The other common irritation is the impact of grippy silicone on delicate - often hairy - inner thighs.

We’ve solved this by literally flipping the traditional thinking and printing them on the outside of the fabric, so that it adheres to the inside of your short instead of your sensitive legs.

The same kind of why-hasn't-it-been-done-before thinking extends to the handy front/left/right indicator on the reflective strip, meaning you'll hopefully never put a warmer on the wrong leg again.

As a final nod to comfort, we've printed the thigh gripper on an extra-wide offcut of our amazing bib short fabric, which also reduces bulk.
