Ok, the old f*rt weighing in on this. I have one pair of shorts like you have pictured. I bought them online and wished from the first day that I hadn't. They are now my "trainer shorts". I wore them today and they bugged the heck outa me. I hate that my belly feels like it's gonna creep out of the top!
I have several other pairs of shorts - PI, Terry, Castelli, Nike. They are all good though if I had to order them I would put the Nike last, then probably the Terry, then the PI. Not sure where to put the Castelli - they happen to be my only pair of knickers so I use them a lot but I am not crazy about the padding.
Regarding extra padding in the saddle - NO!!! I just bought a new, less-padded saddle because of problems with too much padding. Love it! Of course, I haven't tested it on a century yet so stay tuned...
