Bikewa Men's Bike Shorts 3D Padded Cycling Road Biking Mountain Riding Biker Bicycle UPF 50+ Cycle Shorts Zipper Pockets

I'm a road cyclist and former triathlete. Ordered size Large based on some of the other reviews that said they ran small. Ended up shipping them back because they were too big, and reordered my usual size of Medium, which were the perfect size/fit. I'm 5'10", 152 lbs, and have a 33 inch waist. I then tested them on a 20 and then 40 mile bike ride, and the padding was good, they were very comfortable, and the elastic leg bands kept the shorts in place on my quads....While I don't know how they will hold up over time, they look to be well-made, and I quickly bought a 2nd pair since I think $32 is a reasonable/good price, and I ride 2x a week. I also like the zippered pocket on the back and phone pockets on side, although would never risk riding with a phone in the side pocket....but would be handy for hiking/walking....(oh, and I wore them playing pickleball.....worked well for that too.)

Nice! Fits perfectly, I used their size cart and was spot on, nice padding, deep pockets and a zippered one as well in the small of your back, have about 200 miles on them now and they are holding up extremely well, will retire older sets and purchase more of these!!

This is my second pair of these shorts so far. I originally ordered a 2xl, but lost some weight and went down a size. I'm 6'3", 280 lbs. I usually wear a 2xl shirt tall. And size 40x34 pants. I wear mtn bike shorts over these most of the time.Pro's- These seem to actually be true to size , unlike my biking products. It's a weird thing with biking clothes way off on sizes. These are accurate.These shorts have padding for more of an upright riding. Its very hard to find shorts for more of a upright stance of riding. Not in the more totally forward stance. We ride e-bikes, but we pedal all the time. We don't "scooter" them. So this padding is more rearward for your sit bones.Seems like quality material. My first pair has been machine washed a lot. They recommend hand washing. Got no time for that. They are holding up well. 2000 miles on first pair. Still in great shape.Love the pockets, I forgot and left my phone in the side pocket after eating lunch on a ride. Rode 18 miles back home and hadn't moved at all!They look good too just by themselves. Good color options.CON'S- My biggest complaint is the middle seam in the crotch area. Remember how I said the padding is more rearward? Well, this means your junk is riding that seam. I only notice it after a long ride, but then it starts to rub. I just stuff a thin neck gaiter down there like a quarter back towel look. its works out.I guess because its not a bib, but like most shorts they will need to be pulled up after a while. Not a huge deal.The padding is ok, I don't think i like thick padding anyway. I wish they had padding options. Just to try out.Overall this is a great product for the price point. Anything with a "biking" label gets overpriced. Not these! Good looks, 4 stars for comfort, 5 for looks, price, and the more upright padding!!!

Made a world of difference for my ride. Fits as it should and feels like a second skin.

The fit is great! I love the outer side pocket for my phone. There is good elastic to keep the shorts down on the leg. These are a good value.

After a 44 mile and 50 mile ride, have to say these really hold up. Great fit and great padding. Definitely recommend!!

I recently joined a beginners spinning class at my gym. As is the case for all beginner cyclists, my butt was on fire from the seat friction(?) the first few classes. Adjusting the stationary bike settings didn't help so I tried adding a seat pad, but was still hurting during class.After doing some more research I decided to try these padded cycling shorts. I'm 5'7" and about 200 lbs (25-30 lbs overweight... which is why I joined the class). Most things I wear a size Large, but the Bikewa large was way too tight in the thighs (almost cutting off my circulation), so I exchanged them for an XL, which fit much better.The padding on these shorts is interesting... they sort of wedge into the spots where male riders experience discomfort, particularly the butt area. Though it's oddly shaped, it works! My only criticism is the padding is a little heavy & loose feeling when walking around, which is perhaps unavoidable since it's pulling on the thin material. (It feels like I've got a full diaper if you know what I mean.) But that's a fair tradeoff to no longer need a fire extinguisher during spin class. 😮

The leg pockets are certainly handy for my iPhone 16 Pro Max. It fits and I don't at all feel it while riding. The zipper pocket in the back is handy for holding an ID, credit card, and a little cash for food and drink stops. Overall, the shorts are quite comfortable. The material that the shorts are made of is pretty tough but still light enough to be comfortable on warmer days. However, the padding is pretty darn thin. It's fine for short and intense workouts where time is spent in and out of the saddle. But for longer rides where the rider stays seated, the padding just isn't enough.
