    Chamois same as in SSS short?

    Now I'm wondering if the chamois in the detachable shorts/capris is the same one as in the SSS short?

    Some reviews suggest the chamois is too thin for some people's taste.

    If it's the same as the SSS then I'll like it, though.

    Thanks!

    Looks like the same chamois -- the she-lastic.

    You could always call TE and ask them.

    It's very similar. I traded my sss shorts for the newer S-Pros, but from what I remember, the detachable liners are more similar to the sss chamois. I like thinner chamois, so my opinion might not be the best. The liner shorts are definitely thicker than the S-Pros.
