Not so good with ?leg-warmers
You can trust Cycling Weekly.
One of the cheapest shorts but possibly the biggest surprise.
LG's SilvercooL3 pad is held in place very well by the eight panels and this, along with flatlock seams, puts paid to any potential chafing by ruling out unwanted movement.
The leg-grippers are broad and silicone-free, which, while OK on bare skin, were slightly less successful at staying put when worn over leg-warmers.
