Shorts without elastic grippers

[GLC1968]

I would recommend the Canari legacy short (or bibs if you like bibs). No tight band at the leg, not too long of an inseam and a nice, well formed but dense chamois that works well for long rides. They are pricy, but they are worth it. GREAT short! If TE carried a plain black version, I'd buy two more pairs just to have!

They don't make a plain black version. Sorry! I will pass on the feedback, though. This chamois is one of my very favorites as well, as will be going to PBP with me for sure!

Ugh, figures!

The "Hybrid Extra Low Rise Shorts" look to have the same chamois...but how 'low rise' are they? I typically don't like low rise bike shorts so I'm hesitant to try them, even for a great chamois.

They're lower. But even more importantly, that fabric does not have the same structure to it that the Legacy Shorts have, which is the primary reason they are $80 instead of $120.

Yeah, that's kind of what I figured. OK, I'll just keep washing and wearing the legacy shorts for now!

Susan,

Thanks for the reply. When I go to order another pair, I think I will try those out. Bibs have been suggested a million times for comfort. However, I am 5' tall and have a very tiny torso, so they never seem to fit correctly. It doesn't seem right to spend $150.00 and then alter them myself.
