When riding, I tend to wear a pair of 3/4 trousers with padded shorts underneath - I have one pair of cheapo Karrimor Sports Direct cycling shorts and a pair of Endura padded undershorts - basically cotton boxers with a padding layer.

The Karrimor shorts aren't great - pinch a bit around the thighs and not amazingly breathable, but the padding is fairly sturdy compared to the Endura shorts which have rather thin padding that gets a bit uncomfortable after a while.

Can anyone recommend a reasonably affordable pair of shorts that have particularly good padding? Would be good to have something a bit better perhaps for my long ride next weekend! I'll be wearing them underneath trousers so particularly high quality racing wear isn't really important - comfort over long distance is the key.

If the Tenn Outdoors mens shorts are as good as the ladies shorts (given the only change should be in the shape of the padding), they are very comfy IMHO. I don't have a very ladylike shape (short and stocky, and they fit me well. The prices seem to have gone up by about £1 since I bought several pairs.
