Pretty much what I've done. Performance Bike had a sale on century MTB shorts, so I got a pair. Just not as comfy as the regular spandex. Will see how much less they react when I walk in with 'normal' looking clothes. I leave a duffel bag in the office with my shoes, etc, so I have to remove my noisy, stiff riding shoes and walk in socks as well.
