Elite Thermal Leg Warmers
Elite Thermal Leg Warmers
When the temperature dips but full tights feel like overkill, the Elite Thermal Leg Warmers deliver adaptable warmth and coverage that's easy to layer and stash. Designed for performance in cold, dry, or lightly wet conditions, these warmers let you extend your season without committing to full winter gear.
Made with soft thermal fleece, they trap warmth while remaining breathable, so you stay comfortable through tempo efforts, descents, and chilly morning starts. The outer surface is treated with PI Dry®, a permanent water-shedding technology that repels road spray and light precipitation to keep you dry.
An anatomical, left- and right-leg-specific fit improves articulation and eliminates bunching at the knee, while wide grippers at the thigh keep the warmers securely in place under your bib shorts. The zip-free lower leg creates a clean interface with socks and shoe covers.
Pair them with our Elite Thermal Arm Warmers to build a cold-weather kit you can dial in by the mile, or explore more cycling accessories for weather-ready layering solutions.

USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.

I love the Elite Thermal
"I love the Elite Thermal Leg Warmers. They stay up, fit comfortably and keep my legs warm on those chillier days."
Great warmers-stay up
"I ordered an extra small as I ahve had problems with leg warmers falling down. These seem to do the trick. They do have a zipper which is not reflected in the description"
Elite leg warmers
"I bought a pair a few months ago, and was sufficiently impressed that I bought a backup pair."
Excellent Let Warmers
"I've always preferred the Pearl Izumi leg warmers. Been wearing them for many years, many miles. These don't disappoint. The thermal property is just right."
Thermal leg warmer
"The leg warmers work well; warm and comfortable and haven't rolled or slid down or while in use."
Good product
"Just used on a ride yesterday and worked great! Like the way they stay up and don’t droop!"
Just what I needed
"We have had a few unseasonably cold mornings here in Maryland and I have had a chance to test out the leg warmers. They’re perfect. Kept me warm without overheating. Of course it’s nice to have the zippers for easy removal in case I need to."
Recommended!
"Have worn them twice between 30 and 45F and they have kept my legs warm and comfortable. I think I could use them another 5-7 degrees colder without having to add another layer. I found that they stay in place better if I wear the top part of the sleeve on my skin instead of over my bike shorts. The zipper at the bottom makes it easy to put them on. The material feels comfy and is breathable, not heavy or very thick."
ok, but
"Warm and mostly comfortable. Unfortunately I find they chafe behind the knees. If the fleece lining was removed from the area behind the knee they would be perfect. No one needs insulation there anyways."
