Description of 🚴 Optimized for SEO: CANARI Men's Blade Gel Biking/Cycling Shorts

Elastic closure. Fabric: 82% Nylon/ 18% Spandex- MT Pro. Nylon-spandex blend provides durable and breathable support to withstand repetitive use and abuse. The Blade Gel is a basic short with a touch of color but doesn't skimp on features. Amazing GEL pad and ultra-soft double banded gripper for stay-put fit. 8" inseam and 8-panel design with flatseam construction for a sleek fit. Tall comfort waistband for added coverage and support in the ride position. GEL pad with proprietary gel-fill system to spread shock throughout the saddle region rather than in one specific area. This creates pure comfort for novice riders to weekend warriors.

Comfort and high quality

Canari Blade Gel Shorts have become one of my favorites for road riding. Excellent quality cushions and fabric. Very durable and the tape on the blade improves visibility.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Perfect quality and fit1

Bought these shorts for the price and other reviews - wasn't expecting much for the price and was pleasantly surprised with the fit, comfort and overall quality of these shorts. Unfortunately when they arrived and I was able to use them enough times to write this review I went on to buy more and the price is too high to justify the purchase. The quality and fit are perfect and I'm always looking for the next sale price!

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • No instructions

Fantastic cycling shorts.

Bought these for my husband who enjoys cycling but is taller than the average cyclist. (6ft / 225lbs) He loves these shorts and how comfortable they are. The lining is a little wider than others and he says these are the most comfortable shorts he's ever ridden in. The material around the knee is also a little looser and doesn't grab his skin like some others, but still stays down and in place.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Slightly torn

First pair of padded cycling shorts

This is my first pair of padded cycling shorts, not just for lining under other shorts. I usually wear compression shorts when I run, but I've never worn tight cycling shorts. I bought these to wear on a 25 mile bike ride and found them very comfortable and cool on a hot day. For me they fit perfectly as I expected compression shorts to fit. It's a good buy for the price and I would buy it again if I drive more often. I would wear them over soft liners with shorts everyday.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons

Update to my original review - A TOTAL FAILURE of the suede upholstery!

After about 30 rides, washing and tumble drying, the gel padding has completely shifted to one side of the lining. There is absolutely no lining on one side and very thick padding on the other. You may feel like the padding is like two pieces of felt or foam that weren't sewn in place. This is a complete FAIL! The leg and waist grabs and material are perfect except the lining was never sewn on properly. I have to throw them away. No way to fix them. Better buy a more expensive pair that will…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Protection

Warning - sizes run small. Otherwise great.

Warning! They are undersized. I weigh 150 pounds with a 32 inch waist. I've been wearing the same plus size Canari shorts for a while and wanted a larger size as I really like the gel padding. I originally bought a large one, but they were too small! They were returned for XL! and they fit perfectly except for a bit loose around the leg holes, I can live with that. I've worn Pearl in the past but I prefer the gel over the rubbery padding in Pearl. In addition, the edge of the padding on the…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Wrinkled packaging

The quality has gone down and they don't care.

Nice shorts. The only downside is they are 1 inch shorter than the shorts I was wearing so I have a funny stripe down my legs where the sun hits skin it hasn't seen in a while. They have a high waist but they seem smaller than the ones I've been wearing for a few years now. I really like the gel pad, it's better than the foam pad. I have now bought 2 pairs and will be buying more. UPDATE: I bought another pair of these shorts from Canari, really disappointed. Although I bought the same size…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Boring packaging

These are my favorite shorts and I saved 5 pairs this year.

I drive in the suburbs, I drive 30 miles a day. These are my favorite shorts and I've accumulated 5 pairs in the last year. I've found that I can order a size XXL - 2 sizes larger than I normally wear - and because of their size I can just wash them a few times a week, week after week, and then tumble dry without much maintenance. . As you might expect, they decrease slightly over time. But due to buying plus sizes, they remain quite comfortable. Plus, the spandex is so flexible they're still…

Pros
  • Very impressive
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...
