Pad could be a little thicker
In a test as lengthy as this, a natural pecking order usually emerges.
The best shorts get saved for best, the less pleasing only get dug out of the cupboard when everything else is in the wash, and then there are the shorts that get used day in, day out.
These from Giordana are most definitely the latter type, with a superb fit, decent pad and no-frills design making them my go-to shorts for the work commute.
