I ride in Shebeest Triple S shorts, PI or Terry, with majority being the Shebeest. They have been fine until I started riding on a Brooks saddle. The problem is too much padding. I like/need the padding in the sit bones area but not in my *soft tissue* area. It's causing me more pain than helping.

How is the padding in the soft tissue area of these shorts? Would you say it is more "minimalist" or more typical of say the PI shorts you mentioned?

I'm going to get some if they are lite on the padding in the front.
