Description

This is the same 400-Mile Short we have sold for many years, but with a new 8mm Pad instead of the 14mm pad.  While it is 40% less thick, it is 40% more dense.  The end result is a less bulky pad that is more comfortable for saddles that have a cut-out or a split-nose, unnoticeably different on more conventional bike saddles, and no difference on saddles with De Soto Saddle Seat Pads.

Get his new version for 10% less than the original.

Inseam Note  - Shorter Leg Length than other brands: Have you seen the length of the shorts that riders have been wearing in Europe lately, especially in the Grand Tours? As opposed to most brands here in the states, which come just above the knees, our shorts are comfortably shorter. Our inseam is similar to those currently used by the pros in the Grand Tours. They have no gripper elastic, yet stay in place and do not bind or squeeze the legs, which is crucial once you get to the run segment of a triathlon.
