Anyone recommend any padded shorts that don't have Lycra liners please
so regular shorts that have some protection built in rather than in an undershort?
dunno if there are any...and won't the protection move about?
Madison. They come with liners that can be popped off, as do most?.
The shorts I am on about are the ones that have a pad, but no Lycra liner that clips in or otherwise
I have developed some sort of allergy to Lycra
Anything out there
Endura Singletrack 3/4. Awesome shorts.
If you're sure it's a sensitivity to Lycra then you'll probably be best off looking for a padded liner short/underwear that doesn't contain Lycra (or Spandex/elastane, same thing). You will probably need to look carefully at the label to be sure though!
Looks like Madison do (or did) a bamboo liner short https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=madison%20bamboo%20undershorts although you'd nee to see the label to be sure what makes it stretchy, as it's usually a small percentage of elastane in stuff like this.
I have seen old cotton padded liner shorts, but from way back, not seen any recently.
100% wool, no lycra, choice of pad..
