    To disable ads, please log-in.

    I love the Shebeest triple S shorts but can't find any medium for sale at moment....sadly need to buy some replacements before Shebeest start production again....

    Any recommendations ? Anyone like Louis Garneau Neo Power shorts ? Or does anyone know a secret stash of Triple S for sale anywhere ?

    I think the Neo Power shorts are more similar to the Shebeest Century shorts than the SSS shorts, because the fabric is more compressive than the SSS shorts that I have. Also the chamois is a bit thinner. I actually prefer the Neo Power (or Shebeest Century) shorts to the SSS.

    You might email TE and ask what shorts they consider to be a good substitute for the Triple S. I, personally, have long worn the Sugoi RS and have recently started to wear the Sugoi Evolution, too. But I can't honestly compare them to any Shebeest short. The only Shebeest bottom that I have is the Pedal Pusher knicker.

    My two favorite shorts are the Shebeest SSS and the Neo Power. I wear small in the Shebeest and went medium on the Neo Power. I probably could have got away with the small but they are far more compressive than the SSS even with the size difference. Different shorts, but I really like both. I don't even bother with other shorts I have anymore unless I have to use them because of laundry rotation.

    I actually JUST put them on eBay, today. They are the S-Pros, not the SSS. I can yank the auction if someone here wants them before someone bids/buys them on eBay.
