Okay, so...the pants you're wearing are ripping...and you don't want to wear bike shorts...and you don't want anything else because you're "not really the gear/consumer type"...so just what kind of help were you looking for anyway? I'm not a fan of mindless consumerism either, but the gear you've got doesn't work. You can either get something that does, or you can do without, but if you choose Door Number Two, don't expect those pants to magically heal themselves and become functional.
