Hey there, new to forum. I Bought a new bike today and rode it 15 miles from my house to the lake. I haven't ride a bike in about 10 years. I'm now 30 6'0 and 250 pounds. Recently, got back in the gym and now cycling. Trying to get back to 210 if not at least better shape and riding because i used to enjoy it alot. Well, I knew I being this long from not riding I got a sore bottom. Lol so I been looking online for baggy padded shorts. Can anyone recommend a brand and size. Is it better to buy baggy or buy the skin tight type and wear baggy shorts over them I don't have any shops really locally so buying clothes online is always a gamble with size so figured I'd ask? For my size as well can anyone recommend a smaller camelbak type hydration bag that will fit me?

Shop amazon or nashbar. Free returns at amazon are great for cycling clothes since sizing is all over the place.

Get whatever style shorts you like most.

As for a camelback...get whichever fits your budget. They all have a hydration bladder and straw.
...or just get a couple of water bottles. Camelbacks nerd to be dried out consistently and cleaned often to ensure no bacteria grows.

There is mountain bike specific clothing... However it an ego thing... You don't want to walk around in skin tight clothing... Maybe because you're overweight also. That's OK but eventually you're going to need to get over it. Once you do a few more rides you will realise that the clothes you're wearing are not appropriate you will turn into a sweaty chafing mess. Your man boobs will hurt and so will the bits between your legs and then you will realise why we wear what we wear.

Mountain bike shorts and jerseys are generally looser fit.

Thanks for the replies and help

Whatever you do, stick to comfy, padded shorts. Don't go for an overly padded saddle. That will make things much, much worse.

OP - I very much like Aerotech Designs. If you want "tight" shorts their Top Shelf model is pretty decent. I just rode 170 miles cross Florida ride in them a few weeks ago with no issues.

If you want some baggy shorts instead check out their Cargo Mountain Bike shorts.

Padded shorts aren't always the single magic bullet to comfort though - you may need a different seat/saddle.

If this is your first ride in years, of course your butt will be sore. Get your butt used to the saddle before spending more $; that might prevent wasting $, especially if you're going for low-priced stuff.

Fit is almost everything in saddles and shorts. Buying shorts without trying them on maximizes your chance of getting a poor fit. Especially for your first pair, trying them on at an LBS or Performance (which has a wider choice of sizess than my LBSes) is likely to save you pain and money.

If the pad is too thick, it will be less comfortable than if it's too thin - excessive thickness makes it bunch up and put pressure on body parts that shouldn't be pressured on a bike.

There's forum here called Clydsdales & Athenas (or something like that). It would be a better source of info for you than this one, in which the 6 footers weigh 118. Just sayin'.... :-)
