FAQs
No — and this is important. Padded cycling pants are designed to be worn without underwear underneath. The chamois works best with direct contact against your skin. Wearing underwear underneath can cause chafing and actually reduces the comfort the padding is there to provide.
A chamois (pronounced "shammy") is the padded insert sewn into cycling pants to cushion and protect the areas that take the most pressure when you're in the saddle. Every pair of Birds on Bikes cycling pants includes an Elastic Interface® chamois — a quality European-made pad designed specifically for women's anatomy. Whether you're riding for 20 minutes or a few hours, a good chamois makes a real difference.
We make our cycling pants in sizes 6 to 24 and we know fit matters — especially in cycling gear. Check our size guide for measurements and guidance on how our styles fit. If you're between sizes or unsure, feel free to get in touch and we'll help you find the right fit.
Absolutely. You don't need to be a serious cyclist to benefit from padded cycling pants. If you're riding regularly — whether that's commuting, leisure riding, or weekend social rides — a chamois will make you more comfortable in the saddle. Our customers range from first-time riders to seasoned cyclists, and the feedback is always the same: once you ride in proper kit, you won't go back.
Turn them inside out and wash them in warm water on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softener — it breaks down the chamois over time. Hang to dry rather than tumble drying. Treat them well and they'll last.
