The Z-1 Hot Pant: The Z-1's were a long time in the making. And for good reason: They are an extremely complex garment designed and constructed to keep you warm, safe, and comfortable in the harshest conditions of the year. We don't believe in putting the bike away in the winter. That means we need serious gear! And it all starts with a great pair of tights. We used multiple weight fabrics in the Z-1's to optimize protection and comfort. Joints need to be kept warm and loose at all times in the winter to avoid injury. And you also need flexibility behind the knee to avoid bulk and be able to pedal comfortably. We have accomplished all of that. The Z-1 is water-resistant, windproof, and built to take on anything. They are as bomb-proof as they come and will last years and years on end. Details include a sublime brushed back body fabric, multi-density paneling, silicone ankle grippers, 2 High-Viz reflective bands on each leg for safety, and the most comfortable upper ever. We use the same endurance/performance pad in the Z-1's as we do in our premium bib shorts and we invite you to ride for hours without having to worry about being comfortable in the saddle. When you are ready to tale on nature and get after it in the worst of times.....it's time for Hot Pants. Of course, All are Made with pride in the heart of New York City.
