VeloVixen Padded Cycling Knickers - Teal Stars
Why to Buy: stunningly designed, incredibly versatile and just plain stylish, VeloVixen's first ever own creation will do you proud for commuting, spinning or touring.
Order in the next VeloVixen's own padded cycling knickers bring together the best of everything we've learnt from selling women's padded cycling pants over the years. That means great fit*, outstandingly comfortable technical material, a high quality Italian chamois pad, and superb finish. They're the ideal piece of kit for wearing under shorts, jeans, leggings or even skirts, and perfect for commuting, leisurely rides, spin classes, touring and holidays.
It took us 6 years to put our own name on a product - so we wanted to ensure we were creating something truly special. Designed initially for rides of up to 10-15 miles, our testing over the months has shown us that for many people they can be worn for much longer distances thanks to the great material, pad and fit.
Add to all that some of the snazziest designs you'll find (we love these classic black stars on sophisticated teal), and you may find you'll need a pair for every day of the week.
Technical Features
- Italian chamois – perfect for short or long distance
- Perineal area designed to support female anatomy
- Moisture wicking, stretchy, durable and lightweight DRY-CLIM fabric
- Made in Latvia, North Europe

Its strongly advised in the cycling world, NOT to wear your everyday knickers underneath cycling bibs, shorts or panties. They've been created to replace knickers and provide a comfortable padded alternative.

We are! After 6 years of hand picking and curating the best cycling kit around, VeloVixen range was born in 2018. After that long, a couple of things were especially important: first, we'd learnt a lot about what works and looks great in women's cycling kit - we're not the Home of Women's Cycling Kit for nothing; second, we didn't want to create anything and risk our good name if we weren't 100% convinced about it ourselves - so we are.
We create VeloVixen products by boiling down what we've learnt over the years to the very essence of quality and style. We hope you like it!
Standard UK delivery is usually 2-3 working days. We use Royal Mail's Tracked 48 service - you will receive a tracking code with your order.
Next Day Delivery (guaranteed by 12pm with Royal Mail) is available on some products when ordered before 1pm. This option will be shown next to the specific product when available.
If your particular size is not shown, feel free to contact us by email at contact@velovixen.com. Please note some deliveries may take longer if we need to order a product in.
