Bike shorts

Bill said:

Is it just me, or is it difficult to find bike shorts with a
chamois pad that goes up far enough in back to cover the
sitbones, and that go up far enough in front for some
modesty? In other words, do some brands of shorts
have a longer chamois pad than others? I have tried on
a few pairs that just don't begin to cover my sitbones.

Placement, where its sewn in, has as much to do with this as overall
size/length of the chamois. I recently tried and returned some
Cannondale Domestique made in China shorts. Chamois was sewn in way to
the front so there was too much padding in front where its not needed.
And of course there was no padding underneath in the back. I noticed a
person wearing some Nike brand shorts that had the chamois clearly sewn
towards the back, padding was under the sitbones. Noticed because I
was drafting. Did not notice or even attempt to see how the chamois
was placed in the front.
