The 8.5" inseam hits that perfect middle ground—long enough for trail protection, short enough for town cruises.

Tailored for women, obsessively dialed for fit, and made to be lived in—wherever the ride takes you.

Whats a Sun Dog?
A sun dog is an atmospheric optical phenomenon that consists of a bright spot to one or both sides of the Sun. Two sun dogs often flank the Sun within a 22° halo making a beautiful and magical circle around the sun.
The refraction of sunlight is caused by ice crystals in the atmosphere which act as prisms, bending the light rays passing through.

"Awesome for biking, hiking, lake days. Obsessed with these bad boys. 10/10 no notes" - Sarah ★★★★★
These shorts are so well-made! They fit perfectly and flatter my shape. They also do not slip around while riding, which is excellent! I love them.
These are my new favorite bike shorts. I love the fit, length and the pockets are exactly what I was looking for. They are ridiculously comfortable. I wish they came in a neutral solid color like black, grey or navy!
I wish these came in like black or grey :( love them
These shorts are so awesome. I love the yoga top, lightweight fabric and pockets! I got them to wear casually but I’m sure they’ll be great to ride in as well. Will definitely buy more of Curious Creatures!
My favorite bike shorts in the whole world!! So comfy and cute and a wonderful color.
