Merino leg and knee warmers, that don't fall down
« on: 24 October, 2021, 01:02:55 pm »
To be fair I've found this to be a problem in general, less so with Arm Warmers. I'm after something plain looking, no logos preferablely.

I did buy some Leg Warmers from Tre Emme, but unlike their Jerseys and Arm Warmers they were useless.

Any suggestions?

I have the DHB merino arm/leg warmers. They're black and I've had no issues with them falling down/

I might get a length of elastic to keep leg warmers up. I've done that with a buff that lost its elasticity.

Wear them under your shorts.

I like them with logos, it makes sorting the wash easier.

Nappy pins were always the answer to leg/knee warmers migrating.
There are a lot of very good leg and arm warmers about, but few in Merino as far as I can see. I presume that there is a specific reason for specifying it.

I prefer merino over modern cycling wear- almost all my jerseys are merino, I even have a couple of pairs of merino shorts, although to be honest one pair mostly gets used in spring or autumn since they're just too warm in proper summer.

I do have modern shorts and knee Warmers. I've found leg/ Knee Warmers to be hit and miss, whatever the materials though.

I've had good use out of the Defeet Merino armwarmers and leg warmers.

I have never found any leg-warmers that stay up when worn over the shorts, and they need to be worn quite high to stay up under the shorts.
