    I don't wear shorts nor tights with a chamois and I cycle for long distances for years. Yes, not normal. I give up, tryin' to explain this one.

    I prefer to wear lycra shorts or tights. But this is a pair of ordinary shorts that I found works for me when it's cooler and when I'm cycling:

    Has a waistband with zipper & button, plus a drawstring. The machine embroidery design on 1 side is nice, in same colour thread as the short material. Not sure if the size left, is yours. The shorts waistband starts just immediately underneath bellybutton. I am incredibly picky about ordinary shorts for cycling, since alot of them don't fit me (usually the waistband creates a gaping hole in my back which is why I like the drawstring for better fit on this style plus the fit of proper waistband with button.), then there's the right placement of seams that is not bothersome, yaddyadadaaa.
