I don't have any MUSA knickers..but I do own 2 pair of Prana Nemisis
Knickers (good for climbing, stretch woven nylon). I wear them to
work. But I work at an outdoor speciality retail shop so, no big deal
on the dress code. I plan on getting some MUSA's soon, though.

I wear MUSA knickers (I have two pair) to work all the time. I'm 70
years old. No eyebrows raised here, but then I teach in a university
where dress code is more likely to be the name of a band than of a
social convention. If I really wanted to spark interest, I would have

I have worn MUSA pants on casual dress Friday. Feel great, and the chain

A little bit more tailored fit would be good too, they look baggy
around the crotch, judging from the photos on the site.
Matter of taste. I'm 6'0 / 165 and from first availability I've worn
the knickers and the MUSA shorts in size XL. Sure they're baggy -
that's how I like them. They don't bind
I do wish you all would put on some weight! :)
The folks at RBW can't afford to carry everything in my size (several-
X L) unless enough of us qualify for that grand and glorious size.
Oh well, they still have XXL normal riding pants, knickers (of which I
have ordered two pair; let them laugh!),
Well I sure helped Riv out. The other day when I ordered my swell new
Nitto (was snobbish, now humble) seat post, I figured, what the heck,

I actually like the contrasting panels. The MUSA stuff isn't perfect
but the price is right and when I'm not thinking about how
unflattering their clothes make me look and just enjoy my ride and the

I'm not a fan of their knickers -- they're a little too short-waisted
for me -- so I use Swrve knicks instead. (Interestingly, the mens'

Agreed. I've been wearing MUSA knickers and shorts on most of my rides
this summer and am very happy with them. I love the shorts for bumming
around and while I wish they weren't so billowy and were a little
longer, I've grown to love them. The knickers are good too. The new
navy blue is great.
Been wearing the MUSA shorts for most of my rides this summer, but had
to pull out the knickers today. High about 60 with a wind from the NW

positively chilly in the air.

Just got back from a ride in my MUSA shorts. I haven't found perfect
shorts, but they're pretty darn good. Their knickers are the best though.
Well, adding 1% Lycra would make 'em even more the best.
