Thigh Armour
Bicycle thigh armour and impact shorts are essential protective gear for cyclists, especially mountain bikers, BMX riders, and downhill racers. These garments feature strategically placed padding made from high-density foam, EVA, or advanced materials like D3O, designed to absorb and disperse impact energy during falls or collisions. Thigh armour protects the quadriceps and hips from bruises and abrasions, while impact shorts add coverage to the tailbone, hips, and upper thighs without restricting movement. Many designs are lightweight, breathable, and moisture-wicking, allowing comfort during long rides. Overall, they enhance rider safety, confidence, and performance in challenging or high-speed conditions.
