is there anyone out there who has discovered a type of underwear that DOES NOT RIDE UP?? I'm looking for just some type of boxers that are somewhat longer in the thigh area.. any input is appreciated.

under armor

i started wearing bibs under my jeans on hipster fixed rides. commando under the bibs of course, like you're supposed to. efficiency to the max.

Tried that I can't stand the padding though. or are you talking about something that doesn't have pads? enlighten me. i have those canari shorts....

you couldn't stand the padding on padded shorts that are supposed to be soft toasty cushion for your behind? what happened with the padding?

oh your talking about those over the shoulder shorts? so those are good for no ride up? do you get mega sweaty though??

Bibs or go comando

A lot less sweaty than you would with cotton boxers man.

I used the shorts maybe two or three times, i'll give them another shot today, it just felt too bunchy all up in my s#!t ya know?

Could be bad quality shorts. You're going commando in cycling shorts right? Wearing underwear+cycling shorts is all bad news.

or maybe theyre too small

most cycling appearal should have sweat-wicking fabric, as in your sweat wicks to the outside like oil would a candle and evaporate very fast with headwind so you're constant drynessness

Bike shorts wick sweat. If youre getting all wet in there somethig is wrong or you got a sweaty butt


Btw, talking about your junk isnt weird in cycling

I'm notorious for being sweaty. I was diagnosed( by myself) with sfs, Sweaty Foot Syndrome.. it was tragic, i even diagnosed a few of my friends with it too. I did however find a cure for the sfs. BUT let's not get off track here. When i'm biking, i'm biking hard so sweat is gonna happen, but that's not the original topic of all this... I'll give my shams another chance today and if i get mad ride up then I'm gonna go to sports authority and pick up some UA

Mad aero, bro.

If you don't want to wear bibs (I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU DO!), boxer-briefs > boxers as far as bunching and riding up is concerned.

Just get medium quality bibs, you don't be sorry.

Bibs will still be better than anything made of cotton. The padding is there to reduce chaffing more than cushion

Athletic boxers... if you can deal with cotton.

Nike Pro compression shorts are tight-fitting and don't ride up, if you don't like padding.

i've transitioned to compression shorts over padded/chamois shorts

Hanes boxer briefs with comfort soft waistband! Get them naow!

This. I own more Nike Pro Combat gear than the University of Oregon football team.

Don't get ones with lots of padding. Or gel padding. And don't get ones that are loose fitting. You don't want the chamois moving around on you. That causes numbness and saddle sores.

I got 2 sets of these last summer at $60 each.



for when I'm doing CX or doing singletrack with my sons.

Otherwise, I'm always in Volcom shorts with UA warm weather boxers (the medium length - the long is too long and the short rolls up on my thighs and bunches near my pelvic bone); American Eagle loose fit low rise - same drawers. Never chaffing, never an issue with sweat even when I'm hustling.

I'm riding a broken in Brooks B17, for saddle relevance.
