Specialized Terra review

Like the Gustas, the Terras are made from a durable ripstop fabric at the front and rear, with additional stretchy seamless panels on the crotch and sides. Fit is excellent thanks to the elastic waistband with drawcord and Velcro closure at the fly.

Versatile, women-specific baggy shorts

Like the Gustas, the Terras are made from a durable ripstop fabric at the front and rear, with additional stretchy seamless panels on the crotch and sides.

Fit is excellent thanks to the elastic waistband with drawcord and Velcro closure at the fly. They have a trim shape and narrower legroom than the Gustas, but with the stretchy panels they're very comfortable on the bike and don't interfere with any type of riding. White piping down the sides gives a 'go-faster' look, while the rest of the styling is quite simple with two front-hand pockets and one patch pocket at the rear. The inner shorts are more substantial than most and offer a superb women's specific Impact 8 pad. They attach to the baggies by small poppers on each side. The elastic leg grippers dig in a bit and the short inseam can ride up. Like the Gustas, these are great baggies to wear with regular lycra shorts too.
