Dear users, dear authors,
cycling shorts are back in style.
Do you like that?

I’m not exactly a fan, and I haven’t missed them either. That’s because they don’t look particularly good on me—I’m only just under 1.60 m tall.

No, they’re not really my thing either—my legs are too thick for that (though I’m not a cyclist either xD)

Nope, definitely not in size 52... lol...
But even on slimmer people, I think a pair of short shorts looks 10 times better.

Exception: for sports—that’s where they belong.

Best regards, Caro

They’re practical to wear under skirts and dresses when your thighs rub together.

I wear cycling shorts in the winter as a base layer to stay warm, but never for anything other than exercise—that would be ridiculous at my age! Besides, I much prefer loose-fitting shorts or Bermuda shorts.
