Review on BALEAF Women's Bike Shorts: 3D Padded Pocket for Comfortable Cycling Experience with Gel Cushioning – UPF 50+ by Aaron Urena

After my initial check, Baleaf offered to send me a new pair of shorts on the grounds that the original shorts may be defective. I've ridden the new pair a few times so far and they are definitely way better than the first pair I got. The padding feels firm enough to provide reasonable comfort and is placed much more sensibly (centered under my seat while I'm driving). The fit is true to size and the material feels like the shorts will be at least moderately durable. For the price I'm satisfied, especially with the generous and attentive customer service. ------ I wish I liked these shorts better, but after a few rides in them I found them a little mediocre. The fit appears to be true to size, but the padding on the seat feels a bit sparse and the way the seat is stuffed feels completely wrong for when I'm in the saddle when I'm in the back , there is almost no padding under my sit bones. . When I get off the bike, there is clunky and uncomfortable padding sticking out in the front. My friend asked if I accidentally bought men's cycling shorts instead of women's. And contrary to what is stated in the product description, the waist does NOT have a wide band, but is very narrow. Still looking for the best cycling shorts at an affordable price!
