When you're riding, the 4 - way stretch panels will move with you, so you can pedal and shift positions without any restrictions. The water - repellent feature means you don't have to worry too much about light rain or splashes. For the waist, use the ratchet closure to adjust the fit according to your comfort. The front YKK zipper pocket is perfect for storing small items like keys or a phone. As for maintenance, you can machine - wash them in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using bleach. After washing, hang them to dry. Don't iron them too hot as it might damage the materials. Also, make sure to zip up the front pocket before washing to keep it in good condition.
