Beyond Yoga Spacedye Bike Shorts: Comfort Meets Style

Beyond Yoga Spacedye Bike Shorts: Comfort Meets Style

Bike shorts have come a long way from their skin-tight, black lycra days. Today’s bike shorts combine comfort, style, and performance like never before. Case in point: the Spacedye High Waisted Bike Short from Beyond Yoga.

Soft, Four-Way Stretch Fabric

These bike shorts are made from Beyond Yoga’s signature Spacedye fabric. It features a soft, four-way stretch that moves with your body. The fabric is designed for compression and sweat-wicking during workouts. Yet it maintains a lightweight, barely-there feel that is perfect for everyday wear.

Flattering High Waistband

The Spacedye bike shorts feature a wide, high waistband that stays put without squeezing or digging. The waistband is flattering and covers the belly button for a little extra coverage. It’s the perfect rise for yoga, pilates, or casual wear. The waistband lies smooth and flat under tops.

Perfect Length

These bike shorts hit at mid-thigh, providing ample coverage for most activities. While they don’t have the longer bike short length that’s super on-trend right now, these shorts offer a classic, medium length that is versatile and stylish. The hem doesn’t ride up, so you don’t have to keep pulling at it during your workout.

Interior Pocket

Like all Beyond Yoga bike shorts, the Spacedye shorts feature a convenient interior pocket at the waistband. It’s large enough to hold a credit card, cash, or keys – perfect for errands or coffee dates. It also fits larger phones, which is super handy for workouts. The inside pocket keeps your valuables secure and out of sight during exercise.

Moisture-Wicking Fabric

The fabric of these shorts features moisture-wicking technology to keep you cool and dry. This is key for sweaty workouts or all-day wear in hot weather. The fabric dries quickly if it does get wet. And it features anti-odor technology to prevent bacterial growth and resist odors. This also helps the shorts stay fresher between washes.

FAQ

What colors do the Spacedye bike shorts come in?

Beyond Yoga’s Spacedye bike shorts are available in both solid colorways and colorful spacedye prints. Solid options include black, navy, heather grey, and dark red. Print options vary by season but often include blue tie-dye and purple tie-dye.

How do the shorts fit – true to size?

Yes, most reviewers say these shorts fit true to size. Beyond Yoga sizes run from XXS to XL. The four-way stretch fabric allows for a comfortable custom fit. The waistband also has ample stretch while providing support. For reference, I wear my usual size Small in these shorts.

Can you work out in these shorts?

Absolutely! With sweat-wicking, four-way stretch fabric, these shorts are designed for workouts. Their mid-rise waistband stays put during exercise without squeezing or digging. The shorts provide full coverage for everything from yoga to HIIT training to lifting. I wear them for hot yoga and they are perfect.

Are these shorts see-through?

No, the Spacedye bike shorts are not see-through, even in lighter colors. The fabric is opaque with adequate thickness and compression. You don’t have to worry about underwear lines or showing too much skin in these shorts, even when bending and stretching.

How do you wash and care for the shorts?

I wash my Spacedye shorts on cold and lay flat or hang to dry. Heat can damage the spandex fibers over time. The shorts can be machine washed but avoid fabric softener, as it can affect wicking properties. For best results, wash the shorts inside out. This protects the fabric and helps preserve the color.
