Ibex 3/4 bike knickers, Winter riding can always happen

This statement is 100% true when you factor Ibex wool riding clothing into the equation! For people who love those chilly winter rides, the Ibex ¾ Bike Knickers provide amazing warmth and comfort. Made out of climawool lite, these bike shorts are both wind and water resistant. I have tested them in -10 C winter conditions (Pacific Northwest weather) and they get the job done. Even when wet, the fabric warms to the skin which is extremely important for long rides.

The fabric is durable and can withstand a great deal of washing. Even though they are wool, no shrinkage has happened. These are probably one of the most comfortable bike shorts that I have ever used. They provide a great fit and are flattering on the female body. Wool knickers will continue to be apart of my winter active clothing!
