As part of the Chrome bag review we are currently running, Chrome also sent over a pair of their Loop Pro Riding Knickers for review. These high-quality, USA manufactured knickers come equipped with everything from a light chamois to a lock holster to insure you are set to commute.

Initial Thoughts on the Chrome Loop Pro Riding Knickers

Out of the box, you can feel the quality craftsmanship of these kickers right off the bat. Chrome uses the same quality materials in the lock strap that they use with their Chrome bags and the fabric feels durable. After a test fit, I can honestly say…these knickers are extremely comfortable.

Now it is just time to get out and ride!

I founded Bike198 back in 2008 and started riding bikes seriously in 1994. A lot has changed since that time and one of the greatest releases is still getting out on the bike and shredding trail or tearing up the road.
