Many other briefs and cycling shorts have seams in the front in the center. These are properly designed with seams off to the sides where they belong. That keeps them comfortable for both cycling and other sport activities.
<p>I love these under wear and even at full price it's a steal. They are easily as good as UnderArmour at a much better price.</p>
<p>On sale I've bought these for $7.50!</p>
<p>I hate underwear that rides up and like a long inseam and these fit the bill.</p>
<p>Not sure why they call them cycle shorts since you're not supposed to wear underwear under your padded shorts. I have though and I didn't get any chaffage.</p>

<p>Because of my stature, an extra 50 pounds on a 6' frame, I have a hard time finding comfortable underwear. I prefer briefs, but because normal briefs always ride up on me, I found the boxer brief to be the most comfortable style of underwear for me. Unfortunately, in my search for comfort, I have found that the legs on most boxer briefs are too short, because they too "ride up" and make me have to adjust them in order to be comfortable again. All in all, what I have learned is that the longer the legs are, the more comfortable I am.</p>

<p>Well, I have tried almost every underwear that you can find in Sears, Kmart, Walmart, Target, etc...and rarely find the elusive long-legged boxer briefs. One time, just by luck really (I was on a trip and ran out of clean underwear), I stopped into the nearest store (Sears of course) and saw the NordicTrack underwear line and the regular Performance Wear Shorts and the Performance Wear Cycle Shorts, and never having tried them before, purchased a pair of both. I really liked both products, but the Cycle Shorts have longer elastic legs, which to my delight kept everything in place, even after sitting down and getting back up again. Woohoo! Finally, no more chafing!</p>

<p>Little did I know, but it turns out that these shorts are extremely hard to find! I have hiked to every Sears in Las Vegas and any Sears that I happen to pass by during my travels in Southern California, searching for these wonderfully comfortable, chafe resistant underwear. I have checked in other stores for them, and it seems like Sears is the only store that carries the NordicTrack products. Everyone I ask gives me one of two responses: 1) just shrugs their shoulders, not knowing what I am talking about when I come in looking for them, or 2) tells me that they remember carrying them some time in the past, doesn't know why there aren't any more in stock, refuses to order it for me, and then suggests that I "just look for it online".</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To sum up my story: if you ever see these on the shelves, try them out, find which size fits you best, and then buy out the entire stock in the store!! :)</p>

<p>I like these alot. I use them when i am out on a jog or out on a bike ride. Great comfort and support all no matter what activity. The only drawback i find is the price, a little high but good quality product nonetheless.</p>
