Also, if padding is getting bunched up, it's more likely that the shorts are just too big on you.
Pretty sure they aren't too big. They're smalls, and I'm 5'7 150# It's more to do with the padding design, especially the center of the pad. I don't need anything there.
Perhaps another solution is to go with a harder saddle, to keep me from sinking into the seat. I'm thinking that if I can perch my sitbones atop a harder surface, then the center of the pad would not be in close contact with the seat, thereby getting jammed up.
