Bike Pants for Men Gel

Nice surprise ,the chamois holds nicely, not becoming loss after a few rides. Asked myself if they can be a challenge to the bib in shorts rides, I think I can say YES

I live in Arizona , I wear these pants when it's in the 60's or 70 's and am totally comfortable. Not to hot , just feels like you have thin layer of protection from the elements.

This review is for the fleece lined pants. Initial review - 1 star. Promise of new pair - 3 stars for customer service. Back to 1 star after getting new pants - worse padding position than the first pair. Back to 3 stars after refund and custom pants that fixed the padding positioning. Took three tries, but finally got a pair that fits correctly.See below for more.I've previously purchased 2 shorts and 2 pants from this seller and have found the quality, comfort, fit and durability to be great value for the money with no complaints. Based on four consecutive successful orders, I decided to purchase the fleece lined pants for colder weather riding. I ordered the same size as the previous orders (US L, CN XL).I used the fleece pants for the first time today and I am quite disappointed in the quality. The material quality is excellent and quite warm. Unfortunately, I've encountered two manufacturing quality issues that appear to have been reported by several reviewers in the past:1. Ankles are far too loose: compared to my previous orders, the ankles do not properly wrap around my legs. The pants do not interfere with biking, but are loose enough for cold air to rush up my legs. This is a minor issue and if that was the only complaint, I wouldn't need to write a review.2. Padding is in the wrong position: This is the deal breaker. The padding is sewn in a position that is too forward creating an uncomfortable bulge in the front and little to no padding on the bones that contact the seat. When I compare the fleece pants padding to the previously ordered pants and shorts, I found that the fleece pants have a somewhat different padding design and is installed about 1.5 inches lower (measuring from the waist band to the top of the padding in the back) than the others.I was planning on using this for a 46 mile ride in the next few days, but I will now have to find an alternative. I could not imagine how my butt would feel after 46 miles with this padding.UPDATE: 3 stars. Seller contacted me within a day of this review being published and explained that they did have a manufacturing issue that has since been resolved. The seller offered to refund my purchase (even though it was past the Amazon 30 day return window) or send me the new version. I've asked for the new pants in hopes that they are the same quality as my previous 4 orders. I've made my review 3 stars based on the customer service I have been promised.UPDATE: Back to 1 star. The seller offered to send a new pair and assured me that the padding issues had been resolved. I received the pants this week and found that the new pair is even worse than the first. See the photo.1. This is one of the four pair of pants and shorts I have previously ordered and fit great.2. This is the first fleece pants I received that clearly has the padding in a different and incorrect position3. This is the pair sent to me to address my concerns. The padding is position in a way that is even worse than #2.Both 2 and 3 are worthless to me.UPDATE: Back to 3 stars. The seller offered a refund or a custom pair and I choose the refund. After I received the refund, I received a message that the seller went ahead with a custom pair anyway. I received them this week and found the padding is finally in the correct spot. This seller is working very hard to please their customers, just be aware of the quality issues you might encounter.

I enjoyed riding from new year. This pants is warmer, but rain pants will be required in winter season!

When the lingering summer warmth suddenly gave way to more seasonal October chill, I was dismayed to find that my cool weather riding tights, which had been packed away for the last six months, were nowhere to be found. I ride year-round, logging 2500-300 miles annually, mainly through a 20 mile commute to work several times a week. With no bike shop nearby, I turned to Amazon Prime to get my out of my "tight bind."BOTTOM LINE: While the price point is excellent, and they seem reasonably well constructed, I had several issues that will prevent me from buying more or recommending them to others. I still gave them two stars because the price and quality was good, and my issues mainly deal with fit. I am a reasonably proportioned 5'10" adult male that doesn't usually have fit issues; nevertheless, others may find the fit to be perfect for them.Let me go into specific detail for my rating:ISSUE #1: BELL BOTTOMS?! When the Amazon box arrived, I tried the tights on. While the waist and thighs seemed a bit snug, it wasn't so bad as to warrant a larger size, and I figured a day of riding would form them to my specific physique. However, when I suited up for an actual ride this morning, I was surprised at how loose the ankles were when I zipped them up. The inside of the cuff has a gummy material designed to prevent the pant from riding up. However, there was so much fabric that the pant didn't actually grab my ankle. How this manifested on my ride was that during the downhill runs, I got a chilly draft on the lower six inches of my leg. Since these are cool weather tights, not cold weather ones (it was 50 this morning), this is not a catastrophic flaw. However, I thought it was an idiosyncrasy worth mentioning.ISSUE #2: SKINNY KNEES. As my ride progressed, I found the material bunching uncomfortably at the back of my knees. While this provided merely a petty annoyance on my 20 mile ride, I imagine it could become more of an issue on a longer haul where chafing could result.ISSUE #3: POOR CHAMOIS PLACEMENT. This was the deal breaker for me. I found the chamois padding to be way too forward in the tights. As a result, when I rode, much of the padding was in front of my crotch rather than under my seat. While this resulted in some nice insulation for the family jewels on the chilly morning ride, the downside was that my sitz bones, the actual pressure point of my seat, was at the extreme back edge of the padding. Furthermore, the rest of my gluteus was completely unprotected. So, while the rest of my backside doesn't serve as a pressure point, it is still in contact with my seat. I could actually feel the rivets on the back of my Brooks saddle through the thin, unpadded material! I noticed this misfit immediately and stopped to see if I had put the tights on backward. I hadn't, but I tried hiking up the back of the pants while wearing the front droopy. This helped for about 1/4 mile until the material returned to its natural position through my normal body movements.I may try wearing my normal bike shorts under these tights to address this issue, but I suspect that the double padding will result in too much of a "diaper effect" to be a viable solution. Since these tights were inexpensive and I've already ridden in them, I probably won't return them. However, I am sure they will find their way to the back of my riding apparel drawer only to come out in a pinch when everything else is in the laundry.UPDATE: Within 24 hours of posting the review above, I was contacted by the company apologizing for the issues I experienced with these tights, and offering to make things right. While nothing has changed about the product, that response alone garnered another star in my rating; excellent customer service goes a REALLY long way in my book. I will work with the company and amend my review even further pending the outcome of this interaction.

I'm 32 inch inseam and 38 waist. These XL fitted just right. There is mild compression but nothing uncomfortable. They may provide some insulation but don't expect much. The padding in the bottom is perfectly located not to show when walking or siting, so if you're looking to improve your anatomical looks this is not the one. I bought it for use on long motorcycle rides and I think it will do the trick. I'll let you know.

Like the price.The fit is OK, a little saggy on the bottom. The pad is OK, but not great. I wish it had a drawstring but the stretchy waistband holds them up OK. Plenty long but that's OK with me. The fabric weight is perfect for my winter riding - don't go riding below 40F.Good for the price, but doesn't compare well at all to my (worn out) 15-year-old Pearl Izumi's - which would be about $150 now. Endura is another excellent brand, their PI comparable product is about $100.

Nice pants over all, does not sag or ride down. I wish they had side pockets.

great quality, price, comfort whilst being stylish too.

Good price

Didn't use for single time: put into rubbish bin...

Das sitzpolster bietet viel mehr Fahrvergnügen da die echt gut und an richtiger Stelle sitzen. Konnte direkt 15 km mehr fahren ohne Schmerzen.

Por el precio podría decirse que es un buen producto, buen material, solo le falta especificar bien la talla del producto.
