anyone wear men's shorts??????

As someone who has always adapted to what I had, I noticed a HUGE difference when I got decent womens shorts. No contest.

The poor should always buy quality!
You don't have to buy everything immediately.
Most important is shorts and gloves.
Tops you can make do with all sorts as long as it's sporty-material (wicking,etc). Shoes ditto as long as they have stiff soles.

Surgtech, I have always ridden in men's shorts, but the chamois wasn't shaped specifically for a man because they were in the $40-$50 price range. Most of the women's XL wouldn't come anywhere close to fitting me.

A month or two ago, I bought a pair of Hincapie shorts from TE -- an XXL women's and they do fit OK. (I don't see them there now, but you could call to ask.)

Now that I've lost weight and can squeeze into size 14s, I think there may be some women's shorts that I could wear. I'm going to be looking into getting a high-quality pair of women's shorts soon.
