The best 3/4 length shorts

[miffy'sFuji]

I just got a pair of Sugoi Lucky knickers and have worn them twice. These are my first ever bike apparel/short. I was very happy with the length (mid calf on me) and that it flares just a bit at the bottom. I think the style might be a little more on the flattering side for someone with a less than perfect figure like me.

Never having used a chamois before, I don't have anything with which to judge them. It seemed to me that the chamois might be slightly large, but that could be due to me not being at all used to having one. I used it on a 10 mile and then a 14 mile ride and experienced no chafing sensation at all, which was a pleasant change from the usual (some chafing when I wear regular pants).

I was worried when I first got them because they are low-rise. I did a bend over test (touched my toes) and nothing was bared. whew. Low-rise things usually don't work for me, but if these hold their elasticity I think they will be fine.

p.s. These knickers do come in x-small.

Sorry ladies this has nothing to do with the thread, just wanted to say how cute I think Miffy and the bicycle are.

I've heard great things about the Sugoi knickers on another forum, and they're readily available to me in the UK. I'm not sure what model Sugar Knickers I got, I reckon the 2005, but from what I've read PI run quite large compared to other brands, so even with the newer model I might not have been satisified. Thanks for the help ladies
