Product Insights
I.FIV5's Velvety High-Waisted Bike Short with Pockets 5.5" Length delivers a premium fabric story—69% reprocessed nylon and 31% spandex peachskin with a matte-silk handfeel, moisture-wicking, wrinkle and wear resistance, and permanent Polygiene odor control—plus pockets that conform without bulk and a reflective logo, all at $39 CAD with Canadian design credibility. The tradeoff: pockets hold a phone securely only during light activity and lose stability during intense movement, while the shorts may ride up under high exertion.
Verified claims
- Sizing
- Buyers find the fit true to size but note ride-up during intense activity.
- Waistband stability
- The wide waistband keeps the shorts from riding down or twisting.
- Fabric and pockets
- The peachskin fabric drapes and flexes, and the pockets conform without bulk.
- Handfeel
- Derived from artificial suede, the 0.2mm micro-pile provides a matte-silk handfeel and excellent drape.
- Performance
- Lightweight, wrinkle-resistant, wear-resistant, and hygroscopic nylon wicks moisture away from the skin.
- Pocket function
- Same jersey fabric with gentle conforming grip holds items securely without bulging.
- Odor control
- Polygiene odor control prevents odor through repeat wears, storage, and intense sweat.
- Pocket stability
- The same jersey pockets hold small items like keys or a card securely during walking and light yoga, and a standard phone slips in without bulging.
- Odor resistance
- Pocket interiors are permanently treated with antimicrobial Polygiene to prevent odor from sweat and damp items.
- Value
- At $39 CAD, it bundles recycled nylon, Polygiene, reflective logo, and flat seams — a combination rarely found under $40.
- Care instructions
- Machine wash with low detergent, hang dry, and skip fabric softener to preserve the garment.
- Fabric durability
- 69% reprocessed nylon, 31% spandex peachskin fabric resists wear, absorbs moisture, and resists creases.
- Polygiene
- Polygiene treatment is permanent for the garment's lifetime, and the fabric resists odor through multiple sweaty wears, so the shorts need washing far less often than standard synthetics.
- Design origin
- Canadian-designed Simons exclusive provides local-design credibility mass-market brands lack.
- Reflective logo
- Reflective logo is a rare safety detail for shorts at $39.
- Waistband closure
- The high-waisted band has no drawstring or silicone grippers; the wide band and compression fit are what hold it in place.
- Breathability
- The peachskin finish skips the polyurethane treatment used on synthetic suede, so the recycled nylon knit stays supple and breathable instead of developing a stiff, rubberized hand.

Runs and workouts with pockets for essentials
These high-waisted bike shorts are made for running and other workouts, with a wide high-rise waistband and side pockets built into the thigh seams to hold small items hands-free. The velvety fabric and mid-thigh length make them a soft-fitting option, and Polygiene® odor-eliminating technology is designed to help keep them fresh through repeated wear.[1,2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Velvety High-Waisted Bike Short With Pockets 5.5" Length: Choose this if you want velvety, peachskin-soft bike shorts in a mid-thigh cut, with a 5.5 inch (14 cm) inseam, a wide high-rise waistband, and side pockets integrated into the outer thigh seams on both hips. The recycled-nylon stretch fabric (69% reprocessed nylon, 31% spandex) includes Polygiene technology described as eliminating odour and preventing bacterial growth, and flat seams are used for comfort. It comes in women's sizes X-Small to X-Large across five colors and is positioned as running wear.[1,2,3] | High-Rise Bike Short With Pockets Length: 6": Choose this if you want a high-rise 6-inch bike short with adjustable waistband and side patch pockets for running and workouts—reviewers report the snug fit and length help prevent inner-thigh chafing on long runs, the deep pockets hold a phone securely without bouncing, and the waistband stays put without rolling or digging. It's made of soft microfibre in a REPREVE® polyester and spandex blend with Polygiene® odour control and flat seams, and most buyers find their usual size fits accurately, though at least one needed an exchange, so check the size chart. Note that the Black colorway is not offered in X-Large (other colors are), and the opaque-when-stretched fabric experience comes from a small number of reviews.[4] | Velvety High-Rise Bike Short Length: 3.5": Choose this if you want the brand's shortest bike short: a 3.5-inch inseam (9 cm) that finishes at mid-thigh, with a wide high-rise waistband and a V-shaped back. It is made of soft, stretch microfibre jersey in 75% recycled nylon and 25% spandex with a velvety peachskin feel, flat seams, and Polygiene technology stated to eliminate odour. It comes in X-Small through X-Large in Black and Teal, but note the Grape/Dark Crimson colorway is listed only up to Large.[5,6] |
