Tsali Merino Cycling Short
At Kitsbow, our aspirations are nothing short of perfection. For this most crucial piece of kit, we made no compromises. We used high-performance fabrics, a top of the line multi-density chamois made in Italy, and meticulous construction to create a premium short, optimized to enjoy long days in the saddle with the benefits of New Zealand Merino.
We know many women who use this as their sole short for all types of riding, whether layering in the cold or on its own in the heat.
Fabrication & Features
- Constructed from a blend of 45% nylon, 39% New Zealand Merino wool, and 16% spandex: ideal for durability, comfort, and support
- Fitted with an Italian-made, multi-density women’s Cytech EIT (Elastic Interface Technology) insert featuring carbon yarn to expedite dry time and increase the pad's anti-microbial properties
- The waistband is constructed for both ultimate comfort and a secure stay-in-place fit; the front portion of waistband is purposely constructed to do away with seams and stitching, while back is cut higher and features a gripper waistband to stay in place while in the saddle
- Style lines quietly match the lines on the Kitsbow All-Mountain Short collection for a seamless layering interface
- Silicone gripper bead along the liner’s outer side hem keeps outer short snug, on the inside waist and lower leg hem to keep them in place
- Women’s specific Cytech pad is designed to give the wearer complete support and freedom of movement while offering superior breathability, moisture transfer and comfort
- Made in North America (Canada)

comfortable shorts for long days in the saddle
I've used these shorts a handful of times for racing, training rides, and bikepacking. These are my first non-bib go-to shorts. But for downhill/enduro and bike packing the ease of non-bib shorts is more convenient. These are the first shorts I've owned that perform / feel like bibs. No movement/sliding down or rubbing against jersey zippers. The come up a high on the waist, just like bibs and don't fall over the course of the ride. Also a nice touch is the silicon gripper on the outside to keep your jersey or baggies from hitching up when you're getting rad. I wear a small in most bike brands bottoms and my sizing was the same for these.
Women's Base Short
They Rock!!
Like a second skin
Wow they are amazing! Once again Kitsbow delivers a product that feels like silk. They’re so soft and comfty I could lounge around in these. I wore them under my baggies and didn’t feel like I had an uncomfortable second layer on. Also I’m prone to saddle sores yet these seem to keep them away. That alone is worth its weight in gold.
Shorts feel great!
These shorts feel so good! I am always hot and uncomfortable, my skin gets irritated every time I ride, resulting in days of a painful rash. I searched for merino shorts and these were the only ones I found; and they didn't disappoint! My skin was still a little irritated but nothing like before. I only gave 4 of 5 starts because I'm concerned they aren't going to hold up over time, the elastic waist band arrived with elastic threads sticking out all over, at $195 I would hope for better quality control.
women are more expensive
195 dollars for bike shorts for women versus 125 dollars for men’s shorts.They are the best bike shorts my wife has tried but why 70.00 more?

We love this collaboration of classic Pendleton Wool plaid with Kitsbow attention to detail, fitted for the female body. All of the features of the original Icon are preserved, with a slightly softer flannel for a natural drape that flatters. Made in the USA (California) and equally suitable for hanging with friends, or ripping trail with unfortunate weather.
