To wear knee warmers, first determine which warmer is for the right or left leg, then pull the knee warmers all the way up to the crotch point of your bibs or shorts.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- Identify Left and Right: Most knee warmers are designed specifically for the left and right legs. Check for markings or labels indicating which warmer belongs on which leg.
- Pull Them Up: Gently pull the knee warmer up your leg, ensuring it covers your knee joint entirely.
- Positioning: The top edge of the warmer should reach the lower part of your thigh, extending high enough to tuck under the leg gripper of your cycling shorts or bibs. The bottom edge should extend a few inches down your calf.
- Tuck Under Bibs/Shorts: Pull the leg or knee warmers all the way up to the crotch point of your bibs or shorts, ensuring a secure fit. This helps keep them in place and prevents them from slipping down during activity.
- Smooth Out Wrinkles: Ensure that the warmers are smooth and wrinkle-free to prevent chafing and discomfort.
