Review on 🚴 Ultimate Comfort and Performance: Men's Cycling Shorts with Coolmax Pad, Quick-Drying and Breathable, UPF 50+ Protection by Ryan Lawson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Quality shorts - highly recommend

Quality cycling shorts. The lining (suede) is way better than any other in my six or so cycling shorts. I have a lot of shorts with Coolmax pads - this is clearly not the same but is higher density foam (it doesn't look like gel unless the gel is sandwiched between the outer layers of foam). I typically ride 50+ miles and pad quality matters after 20 miles. If there's a better pad I'd love to know, but I can't imagine it could be much better than this one. How long it will last remains to be seen but if I can get even one season out of them (about 4000 miles) they are a reasonable price. They are also made of multiple fabrics - breathable fabric is used in some places to improve cooling. And the non-slip material used to prevent the shorts from riding up the waist is effective and different from the silicone straps often used on other shorts (they work well too). and the 2XL are a bit tight but still comfortable enough for a long ride - I'll try the 3XL next time. Highly recommended.

Pros
  • High test scores for support and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
