Today hubby and I enjoyed the 60º temps on our bikes. On the way home from work he stopped at a nearby bike shop to grab me a pair of knee warmers, since it was sort of borderline, temp-wise.
The knee warmers he got me are the Pearl Izumi thermafleece ones. I put the tops of the knee warmers under the grippers on my shorts, but after only about a block of pedaling they had slid down. So I yanked them up higher, but then the top edge of the warmers was rubbing against my inner thigh area between the saddle nose and my legs.
They are definitely not too big (size medium...I have pretty beefy thighs and calves and that's where PI's sizing chart for these puts me)--any smaller and I think I'd be losing circulation to my extremities. I think the issue is that they lack any sort of grippers on the thigh end.
Can anyone recommend a knee warmer that has grippers on both ends? I see that TE carries some, but none of them really have reviews. What works for you gals?
