Ditto, the jeans don't breathe, glad you didn't get any chafing ON another note - way to go on the ride!!

When I mentioned wearing shorts under non-cycling specific attire earlier, I was thinking of athletic attire, like yoga capris made out of something other than cotton. Jeans would cause chafing and other problems from the stitching and stiff fabric. Cotton tends to create a lot of moisture, and cotton over a chamois would seal in that moisture.
Still most comfortable to wear the cycling shorts with other cycling gear.
