The expression ‘push comes to shove’ has numerous origins but its meaning is invariably the same – the arrival of crunch-time. These hybrid cycling shorts are designed to cope with whatever your ride throws at you, combining the snug fit of road bibs with looser draped material, to preserve your modesty without the bagginess of over shorts. To meet Pearsons high sustainability standards, the main fabric is made from 100% recycled Lycra. The fabric also features a recycled outer, made from a high-stretch polyester tough enough for gravel-grinding. For maximum adventuring, the legs feature cargo pockets for extra supplies. The bib section is made from recycled Elastane, for comfort and stretch. The shorts are built around an exclusive PhD road cycling pad, created from data gathered during a decade of Pearson bike fittings. For all-day riding conditions, the insert is highly breathable, offering premium padded comfort and support. When push comes to shove, these cycling shorts won’t be found wanting
