Cycling Clothing

Hi there, I was wondering how many pairs of cycling shorts a person should have if they are riding daily, also I was wondering if it is normal for the chamois to lose its ability to keep pressure off the sensitive area which you sit on the seat with (whats that area called anyways?) I just have one pair of shorts and it stopped providing comfort after just one days ride, so now circulation gets cut off and it makes my legs feel so tired as if I were bonking, when in fact I have eaten well and have had enough water? The shorts were only $50, will expensive shorts last? I am afraid to buy more shorts if they arent going to provide any more cushioning, any help is much appreciated!

Sounds like you have a saddle or bike fit issue...not chamois.

Yes, I was thinking the seat may have been an issue, it is a stock seat and doesn't have the built in relief zone, maybe I will try out some seats, thankyou!
