BUILD YOUR BASE
With just enough padding to keep you comfortable in the saddle-but not so much that you look and feel bulky-the Foundations Liner Short glides smoothly under clothing or cycling layers. Made with ultra-high-wicking fabric and breathable mesh panels, this durable base layer efficiently wicks away moisture and helps reduce chafing, even on the sweatiest rides. Use the Foundations Liner Shorts to cushion your commute, buffer your MTB ride, or pad your Peleton workout. No matter where you are headed, we'll help you build your base.
Make it a match set with our compatible Foundations Sports Bra.

Foundations is our feminine solution to performance undergarments, and it all started with a hunt for the perfect cycling shorts. For most rides, cycling bibs and shorts are overkill in the padding department, but no chamois at all is just plain painful! We wanted something in between full-on bike shorts and unpadded Lycra, but we couldn't find our dream liner shorts anywhere. So we made our own!

For cycling bibs and shorts, the HIP MEASUREMENT is the most crucial factor. Measure around the WIDEST POINT of the hips/bum. If you are between sizes or petite (5'3" or under), we recommend SIZING DOWN for a compressive fit. A snug fit is crucial to performance.

(Please note, the fit guide requires chest, waist and hip measurements.)
Love the snug and feminine fit!
I wore these for the first time on a 3 hour MTB xc ride. They are the most comfortable liner and chamois I’ve worn and it seems like I’ve tried them all. Fit was perfect, remained comfortable after sweating, not hot! Love them
I bought these thinking I could get away with wearing these as shorts.. That is not possible, unless you want your butt crack skin showing. The black mesh part is very see through. I’m sure they work great as a liner with looser shorts over.
The sale is awesome. Color is popping cool. The bottom (L) fits my 5'1, 63kgs wide hips (44in) frame. Will be using this a lot. Thank you.
I did not have the same experience as the other reviewer, I was surprised to find that the legs didn't ride up at all, and the sticky part on the bottom held them down really well. I like that the shorts are high rise and they go really well with the Key Short. Very soft and comfortable.
