No real reason to bother with cycle shorts unless I'm going to be in the saddle for longer than an hour without any planned stops or stopping for traffic. Chamois shorts don't last as long when people wear them around like regular clothes. When I have a long commute, I change upon arrival. So many reasons why it's not the best idea to keep them on all day, reasons which most people can surmise without me needing to repeat it. Wear and tear alone is enough of a reason.
