Hi
Looking for some cycling shorts. I’m not the skinniest of people so not sure what’s to get. Any ideas or recommendations would be great
Thanks
Tom
MTB or road?
Budget?
Galibier or assos for bib shorts.
Some Castelli bibs (eg. Endurance 3, Aero Race 4) have a superb pad and well worth buying in a sale, the price of my first pair last summer made me wince a bit, but I happy grabbed another after finding they were so good compared to the ~£40 max brands like Funkier I've bought before.
Hybrid and erm no more than £40 or there abouts.
When you say 'cycling shorts' do you mean lycra bibs, lycra non bibs or baggy mtb shorts?
I got some nice Pearl Izumi one from freewheel the ohter week for £30 ish. I got XL and they fit nice, i'm a 36-38" waist and biiiiig thighs....
Probably baggy mtb shorts really don’t think Lycra would suit me.
I was about to say the following are a good buy whilst on offer:

Really comfy pad and durable. I wear them under baggy mtb shorts for mountain bike and just with a road top over them for road biking from time to time (also have endura fs260 bibs which I mostly use for road biking but they’re a chunk more expensive).
Giordana bib shorts under Endura Humvee shorts for me as a large gentleman
