Are there any special underpants that can be worn when cycling?

[Cyclopathic]

My cycle use is fairly casual but I do like to try and get out on longer runs when I can to get a bit fitter. I do not wear any lycra gear favouring instead loose fitting comfortable things I can wear when not cycling. However I do find that my bum can get a bit sore after a long ride (I am currently trying out a few different saddles to help combat this) and being a bloke dangly bits can get a bit squished if not careful.

So are there any pants that anyone could recomend that perhaps smooth out pressure from seams and such and that will also keep everything snug and out of harms way.

Just buy some padded shorts. They are lycra but just wear your baggies over the top. Very comfortable

I wear them on Sunday morning rides, between 50 and 70 miles, under touring shorts.

Why has this board got full up with questions about underpants all of a sudden?

I like these - http://www.marksandspencer.com/Pack-Autograph-Plain-Trunks-Modal/dp/B003BAEOXA

Nice and soft. Plus you don't have to use them just for cycling (wash them first though).

Padded cycling underpants is one option. http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=padded+cycling+underpants

If you just want normal pants but 100% seamless under the barse, Decathlon do Kalenji ones in the running section. Not in any way padded

I occasionally wear padded lycra under pants that I got cheap from Aldi but usually I just wear a thin pair of boxershorts and padded bib shorts. If you have an aversion to lycra just wear something on top.

Lidl/Aldi also sell padded under wear during their cycling gear weeks.

Missed that last post

Not comfortable at all if you are allergic to lycra.
