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
