Bike Leg Warmers - Cycling Enthusiasts Recommend

In colder countries and during winter, many cyclists wear bike leg warmers. Cycling in the colder weather is made a bit more bearable if your legs are kept warm. In some places bike leg warmers are worn by cycling enthusiasts all year round. Good cycling leg warmers will not overheat your legs too much as they are generally made from very breathable fabric. The type of bike leg warmers that cycling experts recommend are those that have zips at the lower end, this makes them easier to remove while wearing cycling shoes.

For those bicycling in very cold and wet conditions there is a great type of leg warmer called the Gore Windstopper Soft Shell III, they are quite weatherproof but probably a little extreme unless you particularly need waterproof leg warmers. Cycling enthusiasts will often recommend leg warmers that are made from Lycra as it is a very fast drying fabric.
