Wear whatever you want to wear based on your experience. Clothes while biking is part of the equipment and setup. Some people need or desire X while others Y. I used to wear bike shorts with a pad/chamois but over time they were causing more problems than they solved, mostly with moisture buildup and I no longer needed the padding effect for comfort. Now I wear regular athletic wicking underwear and regular shorts. Not all are the same and it took some experimenting but I know exactly what to look for now. I just did a 5 day 350 mile gravel trip, I packed a pair of road bike shorts just in case but did not need them. Again.... It depends on what works for YOU. There is no right or wrong.
