Yep.

I'm kind of disappointed that they didn't capture the dreaded inner-top-of-thigh bulge, though! :p

eh, it looks like the second one was photo shopped from the first image. also, they missed the "too tight elastic around the thigh" bulge. :p

Where's the camel toe!?! That's always one of my biggest fears when trying on new shorts.

That's what the chamois is for ;)

if you could get that with a chamois :eek: ..... that would certainly not be a comfortable pair or shorts to ride in.....

I'm kind of partial to the camel-toe effect. :D :cool:

This kinda reminds of when I try on cycling shorts with my boyfriend. We both come out of the changing rooms at the same time and he always looks fantastic in anything he tries on. I say to him, something like, "You look great! They really look like they fit you well!" And all I get from him is something like, "Oh ... yeah. Yeah, those work! They're.. good." It's the thigh bulge that gets him! I know it! :p I think I prefer going on my own.

Clearly I am out of touch. I had to look this up on Wikipedia. That's just....uncouth. That's probably what someone said about flappers' mini skirts too. :rolleyes:
