Beat Chub Rub and Stop Chafe with these Cute Plus Size Bike Shorts

Whether you’re hitting the gym, grabbing coffee, or taking a stroll on a hat day, bike shorts are a versatile piece that are as functional as they are cute! Bike shorts are on-trend and seem here to stay, but not all bike shorts are created equal. Here are 8 place to shop for plus size bike shorts to beat chub rub and stop chafe!

Girlfriend Collective – 6X

Made from recycled water bottles, Girlfriend collective bike shorts are as eco-friendly as they are comfy! These shorts feature an 11″ rise and 8.5″ inseam and look good on all sizes!

Lane Bryant – Size 40

Lane Bryant bike shorts are thick and durable, soft, and they have a pocket! These shorts have almost a 5-star rating on their website, and the reviews definitely seal the deal. A great short for wearing under dresses or a walk around the neighborhood!

Target – 4X

If you’re looking for cheap and effective, Target has some great bike short options at even $10! I feel like this review says it all:

These shorts are everything the other reviews claim them to be. So soft, so comfortable, perfect fit. Runs true to size, and a little on the looser side. I’m going to buy like 3 more.

Atheta – 3X

Athelta is my favorite athletic brand for bottoms and if you’re in the 3x-4x range, take a look at their size chart! I squeeze into the size 1X and they fit like a glove. I feel really secure in Athleta gear and their shorts also have great reviews!
