Excellent cushioning without looking like a diaper
I bought these to use under my regular leggings. Turns my favorite Lullu leggings into bike leggings and allows for more versatility with change of season for mountain biking. Excellent coverage and cushioning. True to size and comfortable to wear.

Great Quality, Extremely Comfortable
I went on a bike tour with Tripsite and used these cycling underwear as it was an 8 day active trip. I purchased a few pairs of these before I went as padded underwear is most recommended- compared to shorts or a padded saddle cover. These were a PERFECT investment! I was able to ride every single day- around 20-30 miles for multiple hours. I was a bit sore but overall, these prevented what surely would have been quite painful! I would buy these over and over again but I probably won't have to do that either, as they are great quality. I highly, HIGHLY recommend purchasing these for your cycling comfort needs.

Quality construction but padding needs improvement
My review of these padded bike underwear is written after a 30 mile ride. The materials used in these padded panties is awesome: quality construction, nice fabric, the purple is lovely and the baboon-butt-red padding is fun. The panty fit well but the padding needs improvement. First, I am 5'4", 112 pounds, have a slim build and I bought a size small. I am fit. The padding hit me in the wrong spots. My impression is that the same size padding is used for all sizes - the same sized padding is sewn into panties of different sizes. If you are bigger the padding may work better for you. As a small person there was waaaay too much useless padding riding up the back of my butt. My sit bones were outside of the narrow padding and none of the big pads in the back were used. The black edging around the legs fits nicely except between my legs - it stuck out stiffly to the sides, rubbed and was uncomfortable when walking. I think I will curl it to the outside and secure it with a few stitches. The panties have a lovely wide contoured waistband but at the top of the waistband there is a 1/4" piece of elastic. After 5 miles of riding this thin piece of elastic cut in so much that it was leaving a red impression in my skin so I rolled the panty top down over my hipbones. I am not sure if this elastic is even needed to keep the panties in place. If it is, a wider (1"?) piece of elastic that isn't too tight would feel better. I gave these panties a 4-star rating because of the quality of the materials but the fit and padding placement, for me, is more of a 2-star.

Worked for shorter rides
These worked OK, better then nothing while biking and I was able to wear my regular shorts for cycling. The cut was a bit tight in the waist for me (not much stretch there) but it was bearable. I used these for a biking trip where I was doing 20-30 miles per day for 5 days. The padding was good, not great but not horrible either. Better than spending close to $100 on shorts I’ll only use occasionally. I wouldn’t want these if I was riding regularly every week but for a short tour they were fine.

Helped with pain and can wear with all my pants
I took a leap of faith and tried these without many reviews after seeing them mentioned in a cycle blog. They worked great! Are they super comfortable when walking around? not really. You can’t avoid that diaper feeling and a bit of stiffness between the legs, but while I was on the indoor bike for a 45 minute class I didn’t notice any discomfort and I was not sore afterwards as I usually am - so mission accomplished! Give them a try, if they aren’t for you there’s always the built in shorts option but I personally wanted to be able to utilize all of my existing workout pants - such a plus!Bonus: a friend in class told me she couldn’t notice the padding under my pants at all!

Rode my spin bike for 1 hour without having to stand up!
These are comfy and they work great. I'm in my 60's and like to ride my outdoor and indoor bikes for at least an hour or more. These help a lot. I hear about bike shorts but I tried these because sometimes I want to wear pants and didn't want to wear shorts under the pants. I live in cooler climate so these are perfect to wear under leggings, they are a little bulky in the but, still they work great and who sees your rear end when you're on a bike! I give it 5 stars because they work great.

Life saving
I recently took a 32 hour bike course and forgot these on the first day of the class. My butt was FEELING IT after day 1. I wore these on day 2-4 overtop of my regular underwear, and these saved my life! The padding isn’t super thick but isn’t too thin either, just enough padding to put a little something between you and the seat. It completely relieved the pressure on the inside of my legs. By the 4th day of class, I felt little to no discomfort downstairs because of these. I really planned to only use them for the class, but I have a feeling I’ll be bringing these out any time I get on the bike. Definitely would recommend!

really uncomfortable!
These underwear run true to size but the "padding" is horrible. It looks like the pads are strategically placed but for me they are placed in spots that get crushed by the padding (my labia) and I was sore for several days after wearing these on a 1 hour ride. Since I wore them I can't return them but they were a total waste of money!
