Another cycle short question: ANYONE wear Castelli shorts?

[spokewench]

I bought 2 pairs of Castelli Amore Donna shorts last year. I wore them a lot for road riding and they did quite well for me. They are a little thinner pad than say the pearlizumi comparable short (eg. the $80 some dollar shorts). I like this, but whether you like that is probably up to the individual.

I rode in these shorts to prepare and to do the Bicycle Tour of Colorado. about 450 miles in 6 days. So that was a lot of riding and a lot of riding to get ready. The only complaint I have about them is that the fabric pilled rather quickly where my legs (BIG THIGHS) rubbed the saddle. I noticed that these pilled more quickly than other shorts that I have bought.

I would buy them again, however, I like the chamois.

I have two pairs of Castelli shorts, they both fit really well. One pair has a much thinner pad. I will have to check them when I get home I don't know the names of the chamois.
