Looking for the Best Chamois Pads

While there are lots of variables to consider when selecting cycling apparel, one factor that is a key consideration is the chamois padding that is sewn into the saddle area of padded bike shorts. Some of us think it is all about the chamois pad when you choose a pair of shorts. There are many opinions on what shape is best, what the thickness should be, and what material should the pad be made from; foam or gel. Some pads are constructed in one seamless piece which are molded, and some are stitch the side panels on which gives the pad a great fit in the short. Both are good options, and the debate about which is best is up to the user. Given all the types of bicycle riders and all of the personal preferences within each of these cycling domains, it is no wonder we have to spend a lot of time looking into our options to understand the choices available to us as cyclists. As the chamois pads evolve into a high end science, the basic idea of a soft ride will never go out of style.
