DIY Bicycle Fashion That Looks Great and Feels Fun!

Better than fashion leggings for your bicycle life, are fashion leggings made by you.

Design house Lydra, in Melbourne, give you the option of custom designing your legs!

I took a pair out for a spin and here’s how they stood up to the Bicycle Babe test.

 The Good:

1. Fashion – yep, nothing better than legs that stop traffic.

2. Bespoke – you simply send in your favourite image, artwork or photograph and Lydra will turn them into a pair of leggings.

3. Ethical – these are definitely sweat-shop free leggings.

The Bad:

1. Insulation – sythetic materials don’t have the thermal properties of natural fibres, like wool and silk, so wear them in good weather or layer them with some fine merino leggings.

2. Eco – unfortunately the manufacture of Lycra fabric isn’t planet friendly, the raw material used is petrolium.

The Ugly:

Given that you choose the design your leggings can be as funky, or as junky, as you like!

Bicycle Babe Rating:
These leggings are super fun, and an awesome idea! They lost Bicycle Babe points in the technical department. I give them 6/10
