Great quality very comfortable at a great price point

I wore these shorts on various rides( 2@ 12, 1@ 30, 1@ 44 miles) and wish I had gotten them sooner. The cushioning and absence of friction( compared to just regular gym shorts) makes these a must have for anything longer than a 5- 10 mile cruise around home.

5 alexcee
yeah I got a few from Amazon for 35 bucks and used them without any problems. But I wanted to try these because the other ones had weird colors and I could n't just wear them alone. This was definitely worth the purchase and im very happy with the shorts. I use leg warmers and they go underneath them perfectly so its a great snug fit.

I got 2 pair for a MTB trip to Moab. Most comfortable bike liner I 've worn.

5 PaddyBRiding
These have been awesome on my training rides! I am riding a 400 mile tour in late July and I have been very comfortable on my long training rides vs using a triathlon short. I will be getting additional pairs for the tour!

5 TPT3
I was looking for something a little warmer as the cooler weather approached. I did n't want anything super tight and I really wanted zippered pockets. Perfect.

5 Reggie58
I ’ ve had these a few weeks and they make a difference in my cycling comfort.

5 FORMAKESFIVE
Apparently there is BIKE SHORTS and COMPRESSION SHORTS. And I was searching for MONTHS because I wanted to try them out. Well now I ’ ve bought 4 pairs because this brand is PERFECT. There is padding on the booty and it feels LIGHTWEIGHT and very flexible. The moment I tried them on I was screaming because they felt so good.

I ’ m new to MTB and wanted some shorts, different than what I would wear on the road. Two pieces, allows you to swap the inner padded shorts with another. I ’ m 6 ’ 180 and the medium is slightly larger than I expected. Sizing appears accurate.

Never used one of these before, but after trying the Zoic liner, I 'm wondering why I waited so long. Really comfortable and makes the ride a lot more enjoyable.

5 Jashfoo
[ Really loving this liner. I have used it on a number of long rides. The material is nice and soft feeling, and chamois is plush and comfy. The wait and thigh bands are comfy and do n't hike up on me The front of the liner has a flap for easy access.... a nice touch

5 SamXNY
Love the shorts, not too bulky and very comfortable.

5 kenny48
[ My LG Fit Sensor 2 shorts I own are a little bit too small for me, so I bought the sensor 3 shorts 1 size larger than my sensor 2 shorts. One size larger turned out to be a perfect fit for me and the top band does not roll over. I found sensor 3 to be very comfortable and it feels like it might be a little bit lighter/cooler material than the sensor 2 shorts. To my surprise, the leg length is a little bit longer than the sensor 2 leg length, which is good. Also, the legs stay in place as I ride. I only ride 15- 20 miles, so I can not say how they are for long rides, but they are great for my use.

[ Bought these for my guy to replace a similar pair that he ’s worn about 200 times. He loves everything about these, especially the fit. Says they are TTS and feel great.

4 J N A
[ Speaking as someone who works with fabric, the pattern on these shorts do n't allow as much freedom of movement as their 2018 model but I 'm still grateful that quality shorts exist for slender riders with long inseams. I miss the drawstring waistbands but this will do.

4 Jimbo
[ Fit is good( large for 34 '' waist). Chamois is very confortable. I 'm 6' 4 '' and could use a bit longer inseam- think the older model was a bit longer. The color bleeds a bit when washing so wash separately initially.

5 THD6
[ I like the quality. The pad is HUGE so that may or may not be to your liking. I love that I can where it under my casual shorts if I 'm doing a casual ride to meet friends for coffee and/or lunch/dinner.

[ This cycling shorts set is much more comfortable than my old spandex padded shorts. It ’s also more acceptable by my wife for wear off the bicycle, she says I look like a black olive with toothpick legs in my old spandex shorts, LOL. With the removable padded briefs, you can wash and dry the briefs and still walk around in the outer shorts.

[ Excellent product, meets all stated features. The fit runs a bit tight, but not too snug. Seat padding is comfortable without being too bulky, and is not very visible from the outside. Length comes down close to my knees for full thigh coverage. I have not yet had them for long, so we will see how they last, but up front just what I needed!

Frequently Asked Questions For Best Cycling Shorts for Men

When searching for the best cycling shorts for men, consider features such as padding, moisture-wicking materials, and breathability. Look for shorts with a comfortable fit that allows for a full range of motion while cycling. Additionally, consider the length and style, as some shorts are designed for specific types of cycling, such as road biking or mountain biking.

Men's cycling shorts are typically made from a blend of synthetic materials, such as polyester and nylon, which provide durability and moisture management. Some shorts also incorporate spandex or elastane for added stretch and comfort. It's important to choose shorts that offer a good balance of breathability and support for long rides.

Choosing the right style of cycling shorts depends on your cycling activity and personal preference. For road cycling, fitted shorts with padding are ideal, while mountain biking may require baggier styles for added comfort and protection. Consider the climate and your riding conditions, as well as whether you prefer a liner short or a standalone option.

Padded cycling shorts can significantly enhance comfort during long rides by providing cushioning and reducing friction. The padding helps to absorb shock and support sensitive areas, making them a worthwhile investment for serious cyclists. If you plan to ride frequently or for extended periods, padded shorts can improve your overall cycling experience.

Liner shorts are typically form-fitting and designed to be worn under baggy shorts or on their own, featuring built-in padding for comfort. Baggy shorts, on the other hand, offer a looser fit and often include pockets for convenience. The choice between the two depends on your riding style and personal comfort preferences.

To ensure a proper fit for cycling shorts, pay attention to sizing charts provided by manufacturers and consider trying them on if possible. The shorts should fit snugly without being overly tight, allowing for freedom of movement. Look for features like adjustable waistbands or elastic materials that can accommodate slight variations in size.
