I recently purchased a pair of MUSA shorts and a pair of the knickers. They are well designed, extremely comfortable and certainly worth the price. I've been wearing one or the other daily. It's nice to be able to go into a coffee shop (or where I am, a country store) without people snickering at one's outfit. That said, these things are designed for use with underwear. If I'm going to be on a bike for more than an hour, I don't want underwear. I want chamoi (sp?) or it's new-age equivalent and a load of goop. Nothing worse than a wad of underwear in the wrong place and you've still got 40 miles to go. GeorgeS
