15 Pairs Of Bike Shorts That Reviewers Actually Swear By

Because let's face it — they're practically your uniform now.

1. A high-waisted biker short to start this list off strong because guess what? These comfy shorts have POCKETS. GOODBYE, HOLDING WAY TOO MANY THINGS IN YOUR HANDS WHILE WALKING THE DOG!

Promising review: "Gone are the days of slathering Vaseline on my thighs before my long runs! These shorts don't slip down, they don't ride up, and they have pockets that actually fit my entire hand. I'm training for a summer race, and these shorts seriously saved my life. Best running shorts I've tried by far." —J. Madrian

Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in women's sizes XS–3XL, three lengths, and in 44 colors).

2. A three-pack of bike shorts, because you shouldn't go a day without access to a fresh pair of shorts. Get a three-pack in the same color, or opt for a multicolor option to spice things up!

Promising review: "Honestly surprised with how these shorts turned out! They look tiny when taken out, but once you put them on they STRETCH and feel buttery soft. Not shiny at all, super cute, and a great deal for a pack of three. Not to mention they make the booty look bootylicious. Recommend immensely. :)" —René

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $22.98+ (available in sizes S–XXL and eight color combos).

3. A pair of ribbed biker shorts with a cute lettuce hem to add a but of *pizzazz* that's almost as unique as you are!

Aerie

Promising review: "These shorts feel amazing on. It feels like you have nothing on, and they stay up on your waist. They don’t fall down. The shorts don’t roll up. I have them in black also! Would buy every color." —Linds

Get them from Aerie for $17.47 (originally $34.95; available in sizes XXS–XXL and in five colors).

4. A pair of comfy cotton bike shorts that come in so many colors, I honestly lost count. You can have a different color for every day of the week while having so many colors and patterns left over to choose from.

amazon.com

Promising review: "I love these so much! I own about six different pairs and am planning to buy more!!! I love that they’re high waisted, and I can wear a bodysuit or crop tops like in the pictures and feel comfortable. I even bought some for a Halloween costume, and they were so comfortable all night. You won’t regret it. The material is nice and soft, and they fold well that I can even carry one in my purse, which I did when I went abroad in case I needed to change due to random weather changes." —Valerie

Get them from Amazon for $17.15+ (available in sizes XL–7X and 42 colors/styles).

5. A pair of mini biker shorts that are meant for yoga, but are a welcome bottom option for your gardening, running, or lounging outfits.

amazon.com

Promising review: "BUY THESE instead of Nike or name-brand Spanx!!! Half the price and still great quality! I do hot yoga every day and normally wear name brand like Spanx, Nike, Lululemon, or Under Armour, and I’ve been in need of some new pairs. Let me tell you — these are just as good! I will likely never buy name brand again! These are not see-through when I bend over." —sretz

Get them from Amazon for $16.30 (available in sizes XS–XXL and seven colors).

6. A pair of bike shorts that comes with a matching bra! Hello, outfit that you will never — I repeat, NEVER — take off.

amazon.com

Promising review: "So fun to wear. I got so many compliments on this two piece! The top doesn’t slide up at all, and the bottoms are pretty high-waisted so it stays the whole time. The fabric kept its shape through the entire day. Shipped just as expected as well. If I had more occasions to wear this I’d buy every color." —Amazon Customer

Get them from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in sizes S–L and eight colors).

7. A pair of metallic biker shorts designed for some pretty high-impact workouts so that you can ~literally~ shine like the track star you are in these.

Amazon

Promising review: "So soft and comfy! They aren't tight at the bottom like some shorts. Sleek color and easy to move in." —Veronica

Get them from Amazon for $14.35+ (available in sizes L–1X and two colors).

8. A pair of Under Armour bike shorts for those who want a no-frills option that'll last through all sorts of workouts! I, admittedly, still have a pair of these shorts that I bought during high school — and they are *still* kicking!

Amazon

Promising review: "Bought for strength training. My thighs are pretty big, and shorter shorts always end up riding up. Not these! Wore them to deadlift and cardio. They pass the squat test too. Not sheer under stretch but not too heavy fabric. None to minimal riding up and very comfortable. I like the wider waistband. It doesn't roll down or bunch up. Would buy again at this point." –OpalJingle

Get them from Amazon for $30 (available in sizes XS–XXL and seven colors).

9. A pair of oatmeal-colored biker shorts that move with you, whether you're running a 5K, deadlifting your new PR, or simply crouching and standing as you chase around your toddler. Basically, you don't have to worry about these shorts rolling up or down!

Alo

Promising review: "I wore these on a long walk and was so pleasantly surprised! They didn’t ride up or roll down, but stayed perfectly in place the whole time and helped keep me sweat-stain free! Amazing quality and look!" —Katherine B.

Get them from Alo for $58 (available in sizes XXS–L and in 13 colors).

10. A pair of cheetah print bike shorts so that you can pay homage to your favorite Disney movie with your Zoom outfits. Now, sing it with me... 🎶 We're cheetah girls, Cheetah sisters! 🎶

amazon.com

Promising review: "These are amazinggggg! So buttery soft and comfortable. A lot of shorts ride up and move around while working out, but these did not. So soft and comfy I want to get more for workouts and just hanging out. I LOVE these. They look just like the picture and fit perfectly." —Jennifer

Get them from Amazon for $17.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 16 colors and prints).

11. A pair of jersey bike shorts to pair with your favorite vintage band tee for a chill, Brooklyn-esque outfit.

Amazon, amazon.com

Promising review: "These were EXACTLY what I was looking for! I wear these under dresses for work, or for doing chores around the house, or working out. They do not roll up on me, even when I am jogging. They feel substantial, a bit thicker than typical cheap leggings, but not so much as to feel bulky or noticeable under dresses." —StellaStars

Get them from Amazon for $7.90+ (available in sizes OS, 1X–5X, and in two colors).

12. A pair of mesh-detailed bike shorts so that you can add a geometric ~flair~ to your workout 'fits. These'll go *perfectly* with your black crewneck sweater for a casual monochromatic brunch outfit.

Amazon

Promising review: “I love the leggings. They are extremely comfortable and made of good-quality material. They are also stylish and breathable with the mesh. I’m very happy.” –Shaun Robertson

Get them from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL, three colors, and as full-length leggings under the same listing).

13. A pair of colorblock warm-up shorts, because who knew you could look this amazing while getting ready for your daily bike ride?!

Get them from Torrid for $12.67 (originally $19.50; available in sizes 10–30).

15. And a pair of classic minty Lululemon shorts, because biker shorts should, above all else, be comfy while staying put throughout the day — having a pair that looks this trendy is just an added bonus.

Lululemon
