Shebeest Short Problems 2006/2007

[Tiff]

LOL Thanks.

I had two pair last year and loved them. When I bought two more pair, without gaining weight, actually losing, they are skin tight on me. Same size, same year model. Just thought it was also odd.

Guess I am just having great luck right now.

I have the new SSS shorts and I must say I liked the chamois better on the old ones. It always seems you find something that works and then they change it. The new ones were also bothering me in the leg crease. I also have the new Ultra D shorts. These are nice and the chamois in much thicker. Not uncomfortable but thicker so I just have to get use to that. Don't know if this helps.

I never had the SSS shorts so I can't compare the Ultra D to them. However, I do still like the Elites the best. I can't find those anymore either.

I hate to say this, but if they are having a 'girdling' effect, I wonder if they're too tight. You want snug, but not too tight.

Surly, I am glad you understood what I meant about the edge of the chamois. Now I don't feel so crazy. I guessed that chamois would be trouble. Not a good place for a crease!

Sarah, Maybe search the net and find them out there somewhere. That's what I had to do to get 2006 model.

Pedal, Could be but they have fit just fine everywhere. The chamois doesn't move around when I ride. I have had shorts too big and they are horrible. The "girdle effect" I am speaking of is my tummy. But anyway....

Thanks all.

Tiff - out of curiosity, what event are you training for?
