Voler Shorts and bibs!!

[ccnyc]

I just got a pair Voler shorts and wore them yesterday for the first time. http://www.velowear.com/products/1120187BLKXSM.aspx
I agree they definitely run large. I thought the Proforma fabric (black) was not sheer. The fabric doesn't have a lot of compression. Very comfortable, though. The Diamonte chamois is okay. Sort of like the Shebeest Shelastic chamois, only not quite as comfy IMHO. The leg elastic did not produce the dreaded sausage effect. They look good on... your basic black, not overly engineered shorts.

I was hoping to love them, but so far I only sort of like them. My plan was to get a second pair but I decided not to after I actually wore them.

Well, I did it! I went ahead and ordered a pair of women's shorts and a pair of men's bib shorts. I figured, that for the prices and that fact there is return shipping, I didn't have anything to lose!!! Thank's for all your advice, I will make sure and follow up this post with a review, when I get the shorts and get to use them!!!

I have two pairs of the Voler shorts - standard black club shorts - and just love them.

I sought this company out, because I am a fan of thin chamois and can not abide by the diaper feeling of most shorts out there today.

So, if you are looking for a pair of good quality basic shorts for reasonable money give this company a try.

I wore my Volers to work this morning. They're Avanti Pros from about 2 years ago. The fabric is surprisingly supportive for the price, and the Azzura chamois is nice and thin. I have no idea what the Diamante (in this year's version) is like. Looks awfully "sculpted" for my tastes, but YMMV.

My biggest complaint about them is that they're rather high cut in the waist. I prefer something a little lower so that the waistband doesn't hit my ribs, since I have no torso length to speak of

I have 4 pair of the bibs from voler, including the see-through grey. They are mostly for the trainer. I absolutely love them. The chamois is just right.
