Rapha's Guide to Women's Tights

All of our padded tights feature a chamois pad created specifically for women. Our pads are size-specific, meaning their size varies in accordance with the size of the tights. For complete comfort on any surface, we vary the foam thickness and density for just the right amount of sit bone support.

All our tights feature reflective or hi-vis details as standard, helping you to stay seen in low light conditions. Whether it's a reflective logo or a contrast panel, these illuminating elements will ensure you stand out against the surrounding dark.

All of our padded tights are designed to be worn without underwear, and feature women’s specific chamois pads that are pre-moulded and seamless to avoid irritation with a sweat-wicking, pH neutral topsheet for complete comfort – no underwear required.

At Rapha, we are riders ourselves so we understand the confidence the right pair of tights can give you. Every part of our women’s legwear, from leg grippers to shoulder straps and chamois pads, is worked on by female designers and optimised specifically for female riders
