Can anybody offer any insight or comparison between these two?

I like a basic tri short with a decent pad and minimal to no pockets and nothing overly long. I generally prefer something with a slightly wider waistband to prevent pinching and preferably no drawstring.

I’m intrigued by the CEPs as you buy them buy the size of your quads, at 6’1" but with skinny legs shorts are often not tight enough if the length is right, or in order to get something tight enough for my quads they are too short.

The Zoots look good with the simple design and no pockets.

I like the CEPs, well made, good thin moulded pad (not just a piece of felt), good compression. I had to size up one size from their chart, at recommended size they were almost cutting off circulation! I will probably try one of their skin suits this year.
