Not sure about the fabric, but you can get chamois from Aerotech Designs.

I replace the chamois on a pair of shorts DH liked - but hated the pad - and it worked out fine.

Sewing bike shorts
To disable ads, please log-in.
I really have a hard time shelling out $75+ for a little spandex and a pad. Many moons ago, we talked about sewing bike shorts. I think Irulan (?) may have done this & found a source for pads.
Does anybody do this? If so, where do you get your spandex & pads? The spandex in fabric stores is too flimsy.
This falls under the category of, "How hard can it be?"To train a dog, you must be more interesting than dirt.

Wow - thanks! Exactly what I'm looking for. Which pad did you use?
