Okay, this is narrowing down to me, lol.. but I'm down to these 5 shorts :

Descente Bliss
Louis Garneau Neo Power
Pearl Izumi Elite Symphany Ultrasensor
Shebeest S-PRO
Sugoi Lucky

What I'm looking for : a wider waistband, small to medium chamois because I am afraid of chafe.

I can't really try any on to get a feel for what I like, because I can't find anyone in town that sells padded shorts.

Does anyone have an opinion or personal experience with these? Or even a different pair to suggest?
