Whether you're commuting through summer or shredding your local trails, baggy cycling shorts are an essential item for your wardrobe. It's not just about style though, the best baggy cycling shorts allow you plenty of room to maneuver around the bike, and also offer protection from the trail. Most baggy cycling shorts receive a DWR (durable water repellent) treatment that will cause water to bead and run off, rather than soaking straight into the fabric.
