Designed to support an active pregnancy and carry you into postnatal life, these high-waisted maternity cycling shorts adapt as your body changes. They offer comfort and flexibility from the early weeks of pregnancy through to life with a newborn — and well beyond.
Standard leggings or shorts rarely stay comfortable during pregnancy. Latched created this pair to offer soft support without digging in, rolling down or feeling restrictive. The silky, sweat-wicking performance fabric moves with your body, while the light compression provides gentle support for the bump, lower back and hips.
The super-high waistband can be worn pulled up to support your bump or folded down to suit your preference. The waistband and seams are positioned to sit comfortably below the bump, and remain soft against a C-section scar. Two deep side pockets make them practical for daily wear — whether at the gym, on a walk, or layered under a dress to prevent thigh rub.
Latched has been awarded Gold for Best Maternity Fashion Brand at the Loved By Parents Awards 2022, as well as Best Maternity Activewear at the Project Baby Awards 2022.
