Hot and bothered fashionistas can now get their hands on Jersey Cycle Shorts for just £8 – yes, you heard that correctly.
The gorgeous shorts are available in black, navy, olive green and white.
Sizes range from a 6 to a 22, making them perfect for a variety of different body shapes and there’s even regular and petite options too.
According to bosses at Next, these Cycle Shorts are “perfect for layering underneath skirts, dresses and shorts or styling alone.”
They’re sure to look great when paired with a T-shirt and trainers for a comfy, casual look.
Not only this, but they’ll even be great for the gym too.
But you can even dress them up with a blazer, shirt and loafers for a cool, head-turning style.
The high-street shorts are designed in a soft and stretchy fabric for a “flattering shape.”
So you’ll be pleased to know that they are sure to keep you feeling cool and help to battle the chub rub on warm days this summer.
But if you want to nab a pair, you should note that these shorts are said to have a “looser fit than usual.”
As a result, those at Next recommend sizing down.
And it’s clear that shoppers are loving them, as they have quickly amassed an average rating of 4.5 out of five online, with numerous five star reviews.
Why are clothes from Next so good?
By Abby McHale Deputy Fashion Editor
Abby McHale said: “Founded in the 80s Next has been a staple on the UK high street for decades.
“Known for being a one stop shop for all the family, it’s directories especially set them apart from the crowd over the years.
“More recently it’s expanded even further, adding a roster of external brands to its repertoire, even branching further into beauty.
“But fashion is what is at its core.
“Thanks to celebrity fashion collaborations with the likes of Rochelle Humes and Emma Willis the brand is up there with the most stylish on the high street.
“From smart tailoring, classic wardrobe staples, a plethora of shoes and bags and a summer shop to lust over, there is so much to choose from.
“The best thing about Next is that it’s reliable.
“Not only offering speedy delivery, the stores are as well as in the big cities situated in your local retail parks making them super accessible.
“Plus the pieces fit well, being true to size even when it comes to jeans, which we all know can be a tricky fit.
“It really is a brand that ticks all the boxes.
“Stylish clothes that also offer comfort and practicality with a price tag to go with – what more could you ask for?
“And it seems to be working for them with sales reported to be up 5.7 per cent in the first quarter of this year.”
Not only did fashion fans praise the “quality” of the affordable shorts, but they raved about the impressive “value for money” too.
One person said: “Good purchase! Bought to wear under a dress. Look good, feels nice and soft and comfy too!”

At the same time, someone else beamed: “True to size, very comfortable, would recommend.”
Meanwhile, another fashionista simply wrote: “Excellent value for money. Very useful holiday wear. I’ve brought them in all colours now.”

Hottest fashion trends of 2025
Fabulous’ Fashion Editor Clemmie Fieldsend shares the biggest trends from the high street.
The East/West Bag
Baguette bags have had a good run, after returning from the 1990s’ shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker to modern-day fashion icons, like Hailey Bieber.
In 2025, the East/West bag is a similar but elongated shape and has long, thin straps that are easy to throw over your shoulder.
They’ve been on runway models’ arms at nearly ever designer show – think Burberry, Givenchy and Bottega Veneta – and are hitting the high street now, too.
Powder pink
Bright fuchsia pink had its day after the release of Barbie in 2023 and now the more polished and expensive-looking pale shade is taking over for 2025.
Pantone may say that it’s the year of Mocha Mousse, but the catwalks say otherwise! From Prada to Erdem, the subtle look was all over the spring/summer catwalks, worn head-to-toe or on its own.
If the sugary shade is too girly for you, then look to sharp suiting for a androgynous take on the colour.
The shell jacket
The ’80s classic is back, but with a sleek and minimal new twist for 2025.
We all know we’re likely to see rain for most of spring, so your practical coat of choice should be a cagoule jacket.
Depop revealed one of its big trend predictions for this year is retro sportswear, with surges already seen in ‘80s windbreakers’.
Seen everywhere from the stylish streets of Copenhagen to the Miu Miu catwalk, now mums who have an emergency raincoat crumpled underneath their pushchair are very much in fashion!
The turn-up jeans
While the shape of jeans remains the same for this year and barrel-legs will still be everywhere, the way we’re styling them is different.
This season, transform your wide-leg, baggy denims into turn-ups.
For this look, size doesn’t matter, so while deep turn-ups are a hit from jean trend-leaders Citizens of Humanity, a slight fold is still just as good – but only as it’s just one single fold.
Peep-toe shoe
Get your pedicures booked in sharpish, as this season your toes are the main event.
After a long hiatus, the peep-toe has been welcomed back into the fashion fold, with brands like Hermes, Miu Miu and Tory Burch showing plain and embellished footwear in this style.
From mules to pumps and clogs (yes, clogs will be around too!), there are lots of different styles that are set to sweep the high street.
Sheer blouses
See-through looks have always lived on the catwalk, but have rarely filtered into everyday life – until now.
Designers Ralph Lauren and Tom Ford loved sheer looks on their S/S ’25 catwalks and M&S even had sellout success with its black sheer pencil skirt last season.
Expect to see more sheer looks lining supermarket aisles and high street shops in the form of skirts, tops and frocks.
