    I'm a Jett girl, not a B-68, but I did have a big problem with finding a short that had a chamois that actually had the prime material under my bones. I started buying shorts, and then trying them on (with undies) while sitting on my bike, and feeling for the padding. I noticed that a lot of the chamois's are sort of pear shaped, and unfortunately for me, seemed to flare/widen just above and behind my sit bones. The chamois seemed wide enough, but placed too far back in the short, if you can picture that.

    For me, the short of all shorts, with the chamois of all chamois, is the Castelli Y-Pro Donna short. I've heard that they've been discontinued, but you can get them half price at backcountryoutlet if you're small or large. I've got 4 pair & even now, I actually have a yearning to order more, because I hate to think of trying to find a replacement. I think that they come in a tight, too.

    Good luck... the hunt for the right short consumed me this summer!
