Shorts

Does anyone know of some cycling shorts that are slim fit? That is, not skin tight like lycra, but not too baggy like most of the MTB shorts.

How baggy is too baggy?
Either try separate padded short liners and your own choice of less baggy leisure shorts or shop around as there are plenty of less baggy cycle shorts out there. Have a look at the endura urban short.

You could try these touring shorts from Corinne Dennis, they're unpadded so if you have a sensitive arse you will want some padded undershorts, personally I ride unpadded and use bamboo sports trunks under them.

I got a pair of Dare2b shorts off eBay for about £15. They're light cargo shorts with Lycra. Not really baggy, though the pockets kinda ruin the slim / fitted look.

Cheers all. I wear Gore Plaster shorts at the moment, and whilst they are really well made and comfy, I could probably fit 50% more leg inside them!

I wear Humvees but I would suspect they were too baggy for the op, I like the look of those Endura Urban ones though, might have to get some of those

Rapha touring shorts would appear to fit the bill.
Thing is, can you fit enough bills in your wallet to pay for them?

Seventy quid for a pair of shorts! I'll stick with the Corinne Dennis ones.
