    For Sale: Black Bottoms Shorts size L- new with tag

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Hi everyone-

    I bought a pair of shorts at the Black Bottoms Warehouse sale last fall. I thought they were comfortable, and ordered another pair, but by the time I was ready to use them, I had lost a few more pounds and I needed a size M (which were sold out).

    They are 8 panel, with the Amara pad and 8 inch inseam. They are brand new, still in the plastic bag with all the tags. The MSRP on their website is $84, but they were seriously discounted to $15 plus shipping. I'd like $20 for them (that would include the shipping cost).

    More info:
    Blackbottoms Cyclewear top-of-the-line short for women. Perfect for women cyclists looking for technical features and durability that lasts ride after ride, washing after washing, and great fit.

    8.1oz. DRI-TEK Performance Tricot (86% / 14%)
    8-Panel anatomical cut
    Padded Amara chamois (Super-soft synthetic leather)
    Flat locked seams
    Elastic Leg Gripper

    Hi...can you tell me if the chamois pad is seamless? Also...do these have a drawstring waist (I hate drawstrings)? Also...are they true to size? Most of my cycling shorts are Pearl Izumi and size medium...but I do have a few other brands (Sugoi, Shebeest) that I wear a Large in....how would these shorts compare, in sizing, to other popular brands?

    nscrbug-
    There is no drawstring on these.

    The pad is not seamless- it is sewn in "synthetic leather" with a central strip of a fabric that looks like it wicks moisture. I can take a photo if that would be helpful.

    As far as size goes- I don't have experience wearing Sugoi or PI, but I was wearing large in Performance brand and in these and now I'm wearing a M. in Performance, Sheebeest SSS and Giordana Shape. I haven't tried PI...

    Hope that's helpful.
