Harlot Scarlet-X Knicker 3/4-length women’s shorts review

Harlot’s Scarlet-X tech knickers were conceived as a simple choice in riding legwear, offering technical performance without sporty Lycra looks.

Made from a breathable nylon fabric with a water repellent finish, these good looking trousers have just enough stretch to make them comfortable and compliant yet are hard wearing and could even handle mountain biking.

The integral stretch liner is antimicrobial, with a surprisingly comfortable low profile pad that’s unobtrusive from both the inside and outside.

This is sufficient for most recreational riding, but longer or harder outings could demand more. The knickers are available in black or grey in sizes XS-XXL.
