  1. Hello, I am looking for some cycling underwear. The kind I am looking for has a chamois in them and
    can be worn under regular walking shorts or, I suppose if you wanted to, worn under pants. I used to
    buy them at the local Gart Sports but they no longer carry them or have them on their website. I
    found them at performance .com. However, I am not happy with Performance's service - if anyone here
    knows of another website for the underwear, please tell me. ( The first order with Performance had
    missing items and was a hassle to get them to send the stuff. The second order was advertised on
    their website. They wrote and told me the advertised special items were no longer available and 'you
    may order another item.' Unfortunately, I discovered there were no other items like the ones I
    ordered. So, I cancelled the whole order.) Thank You, Hieronymus Yeats

    Try your local bike shop. Most have something. Many clothing companies make them. I've seen them
    from Castelli, Pearl Izumi, Cannondale and others.

    The reason I am looking on the internet is because, none of the lbs have them.

    Thank your for your reply. Yes, I found them at Nashbar and they look nice and I like Nashbar. I
    came here to se if anyone could suggest a site I have not found or company I have not seen. You know
    how it goes - a week of internet searching because the local lbs does not have the item. And just
    when one thinks he has found all the sites someone suggests an newer and better one.

    Performance, the Walmart of bicycle supply, has owned and operated Nashbar for several years. The
    product line, pricing, and service level, all for better or worse, seem quite similar.

    With regards to cycling underwear, possibly the best thing, certainly the highest quality pad, might
    be a good pair of coolmax/lycra riding shorts underneath. The Andiamo shorts are padded, but with a
    thinner fabric pad. ED3

    Wouldn't any tight fitting cycling shorts work for wearing under pants, or any loose fitting shorts
    that are long enough?
