Your latest sewing creation sarahspins, looks great! I know I would omit the elastic at the hem of jersey since it never seems to serve any purpose for me.

Haha.. well thanksI was thinking I'd either try the black pearl pad or the tri pad... I'm not honestly wanting a ton of padding, just some extra help with moisture transfer and air circulation (I get sweaty).
I don't know how or why I stumbled across that before... but I did, and it was before the thought of making my own shorts crossed my mind (and I do intend to make some.. I'd love some longer knicker/knee-length style shorts without spending the $$$ on several pairs).
Most of the fancier looking ones from Aerotech seem to be made by this company.. http://www.elasticinterface.com/ Poking through the site I easily spotted the chamois used in my Cannondale shorts (I am seriously 99% sure it's the same one, and I know from the site that Cannondale uses their pads) - it's IMO a pretty nice chamois pad.. hopefully some of the others that Aerotech offers aren't bad either.

I wish I could sew. Mine would look a nightmare if I tried this.Fun to see other's doing amazing work though.
