Fabric Options

Four fabrics — one circular-knit, one built for compression shape-holding.

The seamless cut requires circular-knit fabric and can't be substituted. The compression cut needs interlock with high recovery. The other cuts can run on either nylon-spandex or recycled poly depending on your eco positioning.

4-Way Stretch Nylon-Spandex fabric
Performance / Squat-Proof
4-Way Stretch Nylon-Spandex
High recovery, squat-proof face. Primary option for high-waist classic and scrunch booty cuts. Holds rise above navel through full squat range of motion.
Recycled Polyester Blend fabric
Eco / Sustainable
Recycled Polyester Blend
GRS-certified recycled poly with spandex. Suitable for brands with eco positioning — available across classic and longline cuts on request.
Compression Interlock fabric
Compression / Studio
Compression Interlock
Dense interlock knit for shape retention under heat and sweat. Designed for hot yoga, barre, and HIIT use where compression hold matters over a 90-minute class.
Seamless Circular Knit fabric
Seamless / Premium
Seamless Circular Knit
Required for the seamless cut — no side seam means no irritation point. Premium hand-feel finish and minimal logo placement options on seamless fabric.
Customization

Five inseam lengths and four waistband options — confirmed before we cut.

Inseam length and waistband style are set on the tech pack before sample production. Both affect grading across XS-3XL and can't be changed after sample approval without a revision fee.

Scope Limits

Three biker shorts requests we decline before cutting a first sample.

Being direct about scope limits saves two weeks of back-and-forth on briefs we'll turn down after reviewing the tech pack.

  • Reverse-engineering a branded biker short — we don't reproduce Lululemon Wunder Train, Alo, or other existing labels regardless of reference images provided.
  • Men's compression shorts — different grading standards, waistband construction, and market; handled by a different production line.
  • 100% nylon fast-fashion drops — without spandex recovery, nylon loses shape under squat and becomes sheer; not a fit for activewear positioning.
  • Custom rise height, scrunch density, inseam length, waistband style, and hem grip — all confirmed on tech pack before the sample slot opens.

FAQ

Biker shorts questions — specific answers.

These are the questions biker shorts buyers ask us most. If your question isn't here, send it with your quote request and we'll answer in the first reply.

7"–8" is the broadest sell-through length in the US and UK — covers mid-thigh without touching the knee. European markets trend toward 8"–9" for both yoga and cycling crossover use. If you're targeting a cycling-specific audience or modesty-sensitive market, 9"–10" longline is the better positioning. We recommend starting with two lengths to test your customer base before committing to a full seasonal depth.

Our seamless circular-knit cut eliminates the inner thigh seam entirely — zero stitch line means zero friction point. For cut-and-sew styles, we use flatlock seaming on inner leg construction, which lies flat against the skin and reduces friction to near zero during cycling, yoga, and extended barre sessions. All fabric lots go through an abrasion test cycle before we approve them for biker shorts production.

No — this is a construction priority for us. The waistband uses a multi-layer elastic panel stitched with a stay stitch at the top edge. We test no-roll performance through 50 machine washes and repeat squat-and-stand cycles before releasing a style for bulk. If you're ordering the scrunch booty cut, the back ruching panel is anchored independently so the gather doesn't shift or rise during movement.

Yes — each cut is a separate SKU with its own order band. You can order high-waist classic and scrunch booty in the same purchase order and mix colorways within each SKU. If you're doing a mixed introduction order, we suggest allocating enough depth per style to test sell-through before committing to reorder depth.

We handle the full private label package: woven neck labels, silicone heat-transfer or woven waistband branding, custom hem labels, hang tags, and branded polybag packaging. All branding artwork is reviewed against the garment placement at the tech pack stage — not as an afterthought. Pattern exclusivity is covered by NDA so your cut won't be replicated for competitors. We also provide a pre-production sample with all branding applied for your approval before bulk production begins.

All five biker short cuts are graded from XS through 3XL. Size grading is proportional — the rise, inseam, and thigh circumference each scale by a confirmed grade rule so the fit intent holds from XS to 3XL. Within the confirmed order band you can mix sizes freely — we don't enforce a per-size minimum. If you're running a size-inclusive line, we can accommodate split-run quantities across the full XS-3XL spread.
