Padded Bottoms - Necessary?

[soprano]

I hate padded cycling shorts. The make my soft tissues feel like they are on fire. I have a Brooks saddle with a cut-out, and I add a little BodyGlide if I'm going over 20 miles.

I despise "padded bottoms."
The best thing for me is just plain ol' UnderArmour 7 inch inseam compression shorts. $27. No chamois.

I'm going to have to try these.
