Elite  2863    |  Subject: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear?I received a pair of Pearl Izumi Tri shorts for Christmas. After trying them on today my wife was kind enough to point out that you can see through the fabric to my privates. I took a look myself and sure enough there I am in all my glory for the world to see. I have to take them back. So......other than Pearl Izumi, what Tri Shorts are you guys wearing? |

Maybe it's just a defect with that particular short. I'd check this out before moving to a different short. I've tried cannondale and trek and to date have been happiest with the pearl izumis. |

Expert 1157 Tremonton, Utah | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? I have a pair of Desoto PowerTri Shorts that I absolutely love. Very comfortable. Fit well, and definately do not "reveal" anything that they shouldn't be. They fit tight, as they should, but you can't see through them! They are also at a VERY good price now at several online sites as well, |

| Member 71 Grand Rapids, MI | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? I have a couple pair of Desotos (love them). And I think if you go on their website, you can get them for real cheap. Also own a pair of zoots that are very comfortable as well, but I would go with the Desotos. |

Master 2033 | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? I have several pair of Pearl Izumi and have never had any sort of problem... I think you must have had a defective pair. I have also used Nashbar's house brand and had good luck. They are nice for cycleing training and can be purchased for around $20. |

Master 1292 McKinney, TX | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? I have a pair of Pearl Izumi's that don't give me any problems. Also have a pair of Titan Wear shorts. Not as nice as some, but good to use on brick workouts so I don't wear out my good ones. |

Champion 8903 | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? For regular biking shorts I buy the bibs from either Nashbar or Performance. For tris, I wear a 1-piece tri-suit, and I like the ones made by Tyr. You have an understanding wife...mine would have let me embarrass myself before pointing out that fact!  |

Expert 798 Potomac, Maryland | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? Maybe it's the color and not the shorts. I think black hides things better. I have a Team Javelin tri suit (bottom is black) and inexpensive black Performance Bicycle shorts. No problems with either. Then again, it may be that the equipment your'e packing needs surgical reduction. Check with your wife before going under the knife! |

She's happy with the equipment, she just doesn't want the world to share in her enjoyment. |

Expert 950 McKinney, TX | Subject: RE: Tri Shorts: What brand do you wear? Hubby and I both have/had Pearl Izumis. We had the shocking realization in the privacy of our home too (thank God), but when you put them on, it really doesn't show anything (at least ours didn't). That being said, I find the PI's wear out much faster than expected...THEN you really can see all da glory! |
