Description
Bella sets the standard for women's bike shorts. The Bella Free was developed to provide a leg gripper-free version for those who have an aversion to silicone, or are looking for a less restrictive fit against the thigh. Everything else remains the same: sculpted paneling for all-day comfort; just the right level of compression; Terry's Flex Air Chamois.

Proudly designed, cut and sewn in the USA at a green energy-certified facility, supporting local jobs and the highest standards in quality and fit.

Chamois
Flex Air Chamois:
Unique to Terry, the Flex Air offers the best shape and construction for women. Seamless chamois with 4-way stretch Elastic Interface Technology provides freedom of movement on the saddle; multi-level foam padding is perforated for increased breathability; light, channeled microfiber fabric in Terry pink is antimicrobial and enhances moisture transfer; soft wing construction reduces bulk at inner thigh to avoid chafing. Made in Italy.

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.

Bella

"These shorts have very comfortable leg openings but I don’t love that there is a seam on the inside of the waist band that really digs in. Please work on the comfort of the waistband now that you have a comfortable leg opening. I would appreciate a higher quality dense chamois on these expensive high quality shorts. Some room for improvement on these."

Pleasantly surprised

"I was skeptical at first that the fabric wouldn't breathe. I called and they said try them and if you don't like them just return them. I was surprised that was for real! So I rode them and they were comfortable and well ventilated. I have another pair of terry that are about 10 years old and I still use them. Yay!"

Love it!

"These are just the perfect length short - not too short or long, and I love no elastic on the legs! As always, the chamois and feel of the overall short is awesome. My only hesitation is that although I ordered the same size as always, this short is a little tighter. Yep, could be me, but I don't think so!"

Amy L. (5/5)

Very comfortable!

"I love my new Bella shorts. I ordered a medium and they fit snugly but not too tight. I really like the front waistband because there’s no elastic. It’s just Lycra so no binding. The pad is just right too. No bunching and not too thick! The six panel is very supportive and looks great. Well done Terry!"

Christine S. (5/5)

Too long

"The shorts are too long for me and i will probably return them"

Lois B. (2/5)

Waist band is too tight

"These are very comfortable except the waistband is too tight. I ordered a medium, and weight 116 pounds. I'm hoping waistband stretches out with use and/or in the wash, as I have older Terry shorts the same design and waistband and they're comfortable."
