I have a pair of Zoic capris/knickers that are more like something for MT. Bking but I really like them. One can not tell they have a chamoied liner short underneath. They look like regular material and are baggy and comfy. I am short legged and they look fine on me. I am not sure what the difference is between knickers and capris, but whichever they are, I like them.

I wear baggy capris or shorts over my lycra when I commute or MTB. I go to TJ Maxx/Marshalls and go through the athletic clothing section for running and hiking stuff. It's designed for movement, so no binding. I've picked up lots of brand-name stuff for $10-$20, and just wear my roadie shorts underneath.

Is this comfortable in warm weather? I've had great success wearing non-binding pants over bike shorts in cool weather, but I wonder about summer. I'm looking for capris same as the OP.

As comfortable as you can be during a humid Mid-Atlantic summer Originally Posted by PamNY

My favorite capris are some ultra-light New Balance running capris- not hot at all, and they keep the sun off the tops of my legs. I use MTB shorts too, but the liners often don't work for me, so I wear my lycra cycling shorts in their place.
