Anna's Legs is a brand new range of women's cycling tights from designer, rider and presenter Anna Glowinski. The limited edition range, sold exclusively through online retailer VeloVixen, features plain and printed full-length padded tights.
As well as frequent appearances on various online video edits and cycling TV programmes, Anna was also the creator of the Ana Nichoola range of women’s cycling kit, which was immensely popular several years back. Anna’s Legs sees her return to the world of product design, and as any fans of her previous work will attest, these products have been developed with an eye to good design, quality and aesthetics.
The range consists of padded cycling tights available in three limited edition colour ways, and other colour and pattern runs are planned for the future. The colours available include the classic star print, a design Glowinski became known for, plus a plain blue and a striking print inspired by mountain sunsets. We tested the star and sunset print options, both in a size 14 or large, on two different testers.

The construction is highly engineered, with multiple panels of lycra stitched to fit closely and stay in place. We did find the panel at the inner thigh seemed to accentuate any bulk we had in this area a little, but otherwise the fit is firm and flattering.
One feature of particular interest is the high waist. Usually, cyclists who want good coverage over the lower back must opt for bib tights, and some non-bib cycling tights can slip or roll down, exposing the lower back, but the Anna’s Legs tights have a high fitted waist that sits at the belly button at the front, covering the lower third of the back (height dependent).
