The Etxeondo Orhi Thermo Cargo Long Cycling Shorts featured here at Escapa are long cycling shorts with suspenders designed for cyclists seeking performance, comfort, and extra storage capacity during the colder months. Their thermal construction helps maintain body temperature, while the Cargo design allows you to carry essential items for your ride within easy reach.

Designed for training and long-distance rides, they combine the Thermosystem Termika thermoregulating fabric with the Urraki chamois, used in Etxeondo’s highest-performance garments. The result is a warm, stretchy, and stable pair of tights, suitable for riding in temperatures ranging from approximately -2 to 14 °C.

Thermosystem Termika Fabric

The Thermosystem Termika fabric is designed to maintain a stable body temperature during rides in cold weather. Its hollow fibers create a layer of air between the skin and the fabric that promotes thermal insulation.

At the same time, its thermoregulatory properties allow excess heat and moisture generated during intense exertion to be wicked away. This combination helps maintain comfort on climbs as well as during descents and less intense sections.

The fabric also incorporates elastic fibers that provide freedom of movement and a snug fit without restricting pedaling.

Cargo Design for Carrying Essentials

The Cargo design adds storage capacity to the bib shorts, making it easy to carry small items during your ride. This feature is especially practical for Gravel riding, Bikepacking, long training rides, or outings where you want to reduce the load in your jersey pockets.

It allows for better organization of elements such as:

- Energy bars and gels.

- Lightweight gloves or a neck gaiter.

- Cell phone.

- Wrappers and small accessories.

- Compact tools.

The load should be distributed evenly and not exceed the capacity of the pockets to prevent movement while cycling.

Urraki Chamois for Long Distances

The Etxeondo Urraki chamois is designed to provide support and comfort during long rides. It is constructed using different pieces of high-density memory foam, distributed according to the pressure points created between the rider and the saddle.

Precision & Movement technology gives the chamois an anatomical shape and allows it to be precisely positioned inside the cycling shorts. The Union of elastic threads helps the seam follow the fabric’s movement, reducing the formation of folds and pressure points.

The chamois uses no adhesives or prints on the contact surface—a design intended to promote comfort, ventilation, and skin care during prolonged use.

High-Performance Anatomical Fit

The pattern is designed to provide a balance between compression, elasticity, and freedom of movement. The fabric adapts to the body and keeps the cycling shorts properly positioned while riding, preventing unnecessary shifting.

Its stated compression level is 4.5 out of 5, offering strong support without hindering the natural movement of the legs. Etxeondo also rates its thermal insulation and performance highly, positioning it as a winter garment designed for demanding cyclists.

One-piece straps

The straps are made from a single, seamless piece, reducing potential pressure points and chafing under a jersey or jacket.

Their design helps distribute tension evenly and keeps the chamois properly positioned during long rides. The stretchy construction also ensures a snug fit without restricting breathability or movement.

Free Cut Hemming

The leg openings feature a Free Cut finish, which eliminates bulky elastic bands around the ankles. This solution ensures a clean, even, and comfortable fit under socks or shoe covers. The seamless finish reduces pressure points and makes it easier to layer the bib shorts with other thermal garments.

Sun Protection and Visibility

The fabric provides SPF 50+ sun protection against UVA rays, offering additional protection during long rides.

Reflective details on the back increase visibility when illuminated by other vehicles—an important feature during winter rides, when daylight hours are shorter.
