Hi – can anyone recommend padded under shorts that’ll survive daily commutes?
I’ve got a couple of pairs of the Endura’s but the foam insert quickly becomes as thin as cardboard.

After something with a bit more longevity.

I got a set of Schwinn undershorts that seem to be lasting pretty well, they are a bit like boxers only bigger.

Like these (not me selling them)

I’ve got some sugoi one’s that are bloody lovely. They’re a kind of meshed lycra, so better for wearing underneath something. gets a bit mangled on contact with velcro, but seem to be holding up well apart from that. I’ll see if they’ve got a name when I get home.

My wife really rates the craft ones.

My Altura pro gels are lasting pretty well – 12 month plus, plenty of washes.

gore powerIII work for me.

Craft are good if you don’t want full on lycras, they dry quick after washing and are more resiliant than they look (mesh version)

I’ve a couple of sugoi ones – called recaro or something v similar. As NedR says, they’re meshed lycra but (my ones at least) same fit a bike shorts or maybe slightly shorter on the leg

not sure you can get ’em any more though
