Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I never thought I'd end up writing a review for what are essentially padded underwear, but here we are. I recently (within the past 3-4 months) started cycling for exercise. Initially I had trouble getting used to the rather unforgiving seat on my new bike, so I replaced the seat with a more padded model. This worked for a while, but on longer rides (20 miles+) I noticed that the padding was too firm and actually caused some pretty major pain. As an experiment I bought these and one other (cheaper) pair to see if they'd make a difference. Boy did they ever make a difference, and because I had another pair to compare them with, I found that these are vastly superior. They stay up and wear pretty much like a normal pair of boxer briefs. They're so comfortable that I often forget that the padding is even there. Best of all, no more pain while riding. These things are great. One note is that although the sizing numbers are accurate, the letter sizes are way different than normal American men's underwear sizes. I wear normal Hanes boxer briefs in XL and had to buy these XXXL to achieve a similar fit. So be careful when you pick your size.
