Pearl Izumi Men's Elite Inrcool Limited Triathlon Shorts - Lightweight, Moisture-Wicking Cycling & Running Shorts for Triathletes & Endurance Athletes | Perfect for Training, Racing & Outdoor Sports

After trying some other brands and 2 pairs of these in different designs, here are some thoughts after my first triathlon season.- The pocket in the back is awesome. On an Olympic course I put a cliff bar in there before jumping in the water and was overjoyed to remember it half way through the bike.- There is no modesty lining. Not that I have anything to hide, I just would rather not spark a lively discussion every time I want to go from the bike to the weight room.- The biggest drawback for me is the open chamois. I guess the idea is that you can put your own bike padding inside during transition and rip it out for the run. I have not tried using an additional padding. For me the chamois is a sufficient padding. The problem is that the chamois has no stitching in the front which allows for the front of the chamois to slide independently during cycling. I find this sliding to be distracting and annoying. I only use these shorts in swim training now.- comparatively, you could buy a very basic jammer for $10 and do without the chamois.
