Description
All the goodness of our best-selling Breakaway but with a higher rise and wider waistband that extends the torso coverage another 2 inches. In addition, it uses a more compressive fabric so you'll notice a slightly tighter fit than other Breakaways. Fan-favorite features include sculpted paneling, super comfortable self-fabric leg bands and our Fleet Air chamois. One of the few cycling products actually cut and sewn in the USA, there's a lot to feel comfortable with in this variation.

fit notes
Note that the Breakaway Hi-Rise Bike Short has a slightly higher compression fit than the original Breakaway Short. We suggest sizing up if between sizes or if you prefer lighter compression.
product care
Remove your shorts and launder asap for best results as residual sweat may damage the chamois. Wash only in delicate cycle at 86 degrees. Use neutral non-aggressive detergents, keep like colors together and avoid dryers. If you use chamois butter/cream, your garment's ability to wick moisture will be greatly reduced and the durability of your chamois may be compromised. Note: we recommend that you wash new bottoms prior to use.

Reviews
Very comfortable fit. I like
"Very comfortable fit. I like the high waist! Fabric is good. Haven’t had an opportunity to try them out on a long ride yet but looking forward to wearing them for that. It would be nice if they had a pocket in the back or on the leg."
Breakaway hi-rise bike short
"Comfortable & great fit right out of the box! The pad is perfect! Enough seat padding but not over flowing into the inner thigh. I love the high rise waist! I am 5’5” and 137 lbs. I ordered a medium."
Very High Waist
"This short has a very high waist. This is perfect for covering my large tummy. I do not need to deal with the rolling rolling on down to my bikini line while riding. One star off since the fabric feels pretty flimsy and not that supportive. It is stretchy though."
Odd fit after wearing a few hours
"I purchased this for the RAGBRAI ride across Iowa. While it fit when I tried it on at home, after a few hours of riding it was way too big everywhere. This is my first disappointment in a Terry product - and an expensive one."
perfect cycling shorts
"Comfortable, flattering, light weight for warm weather riding. Ordered one size up from my normal and they fit perfect."
Breakaway shorts the bomb!
"I've been wearing the Breakaway shorts for a few years now. I love the fit and durability."
I like the high waist
"Thanks Terry, I really liked the first pair of shorts so I decided to by a second pair."
I love the length!
"My new favorite biking shorts! I love the length at my waist! They were also comfortable for my 20 mile ride."
Breakaway Hi-rise short
"I can count on Terry to have comfortable bike shorts! When it is hot weather, I love not having rubber or plastic touching my legs just above my knees. The high rise is very flattering smoothing out the waist line. I also like the chamois paddling rather than gel. I hope they have the same durability as the ones I've worn in the past. Thanks for giving me a comfortable ride!"
