    Castelli Knickers

    Has anyone tried the new Castelli knickers that TE is now carrying? I like my Witches Britches but as V or someone else commented, the chamois is not the most comfortable for long rides.
    I'm on a spending "diet" for now, as I'm saving up for a couple items that TE is supposed to get in stock later this month. So, I'm trying to resist the knickers, even though I can justify the expense since I ride every day.

    They're on my list to try too. But shorts came first, since we have more shorts weather than knicker weather. Although lately... it's been cold!

    chamois and sizing

    I noticed them too... they look comfy and the fabric seems to be appropriate for not-too-cold weather. I'd like to know about the chamois too. I'm a big fan of knickers, but most of the ones I've tried before come with chamois that seem to be made for short rides.

    How is the sizing for Castelli clothing, compared to Pearl Izumi or Shebeest, for example?
