According to our fashion sources, bike shorts are making a comeback [1] — a BIG comeback, might we add. Whether you've seen them on a Kardashian [2] or on your favourite Spin instructor, they're here to help you sweat and strut the streets in style.
We have to admit, some of the biker shorts on the market are cute, sure, but they don't look like they'd be suitable for a workout (exhibit A [3]; exhibit B [4]). So we wanted to bring you pairs from activewear brands we love that are not only trendy but also promise support and comfort for your next group class or at-home HIIT session [5].
