Imogen Harvey-Lewis explains her inspiration for the wonderful Birds design…
There is something special about birds.
I have used them as a recurring motif throughout my design career for their simple relatability as a wild yet peaceful companion.
From feeding the sparrows in Regents Park as a child, to lying in the spikey grass of my local West Country common listening for skylarks, I have always related to the unassuming yet plucky characteristics of the small brown bird. Beautiful-in-its-own-right, determined and contained.
The Velo Vixen birds have flexed this feathered notion of modest beauty. Capitalising on a simple streamlined asymmetry, my design concept was to encapsulate character and energy within each bird, working up an inner range of subtle colour and pattern.
Channelling their feral curves, I delight in the infinite variety of personality and poise. Inquisitive, playful, energetic and companiable, the VV birds are the perfect buddy for any ride. This veritable flock will add a stylish smile to your day. Neat, cool and collected.
VeloVixen’s padded cycling knickers are the perfect option for those rides where you want the comfort of a chamois pad, without having to wear a pair of cycling bib shorts. Ideal for cycle commutes, leisure rides and spin classes, these magic pants fit comfortably and discreetly under your clothes. They’re also great for wearing underneath your gravel or mountain biking shorts for extra comfort on your off-road rides.
Our padded cycling women’s cycling knickers are all about comfort: which means alongside the female-specific, premium quality Italian chamois pad, they also offer a superb fit and have been constructed with ultra-comfortable technical material.
Designed initially for rides of up to 10-15 miles, testing from members of our VeloVixen community has shown us that for many riders these padded cycling underpants stay comfy even over the longer distances. Add in a stunning range of designs and it’s no wonder they’ve become a firm Vixen favourite!
