Women's High-Waisted Thermal Padded Cycling Tights | Alma Hi Vis

Cold legs? Not on our watch.

Our women’s high-waisted thermal cycling tights are made for cold autumn and winter rides, with warm fleece-backed fabric, a supportive high waist and a women’s-specific padded fit designed around real curves.

Made from soft Super Roubaix thermal fabric, they give you warmth and gentle compression without feeling stiff or restrictive. The high waist and extra-high back provide comfortable coverage around your tummy and lower back, while the shaped panels give plenty of room through the hips and thighs.

Think the warmth and support of bib tights, without the bathroom gymnastics.

Who are these tights best for?

These are a great choice if you want warm padded cycling tights but don’t get on with bibs, prefer more support around your middle, or struggle to find cycling bottoms that comfortably accommodate curves.

They’re especially useful for women with curvier hips, bigger thighs or a fuller tummy, because the stretchy fabric and high waistband are designed to support your shape rather than cut across it.

They also work brilliantly for riders who simply want winter cycling kit that feels comfortable and secure without an ultra-tight race fit.

Fit & sizing

These tights should feel close-fitting and supportive without digging in or squashing you.

For women’s bottoms, your hip measurement is the most important measurement, so start there rather than relying on your normal dress size.

The fabric has plenty of stretch, so it should hug your legs, hips and waist without leaving loose or baggy fabric around the pad.

If you’re between sizes, your height and body shape can also make a difference. Check our Size Guide and How to Measure guide, or send us your waist, hip measurement and height and we’ll happily help.

When should I wear them?

These are designed for autumn, winter and early spring cycling, particularly when shorts have stopped being warm enough.

They work well on their own with a long sleeve cycling jersey in cooler weather, then pair with a jacket or gilet as temperatures drop.
