Zoot tri shorts are my current favorite shorts for both racing and training. I love them. I’m curious if people like the cycling shorts as much. I bought a pair and tried them on (with compression shorts so I wasn’t a dirtball) and felt like the cycling pad was not what I was hoping for. It feels odd and bulky.
I haven’t seen Zoot mentioned in discussions of road gear in the posts here. Anyone have feedback to the cycling shorts?
I have both and prefer the tri shorts for the bike. The cycling shorts padding is very thick in my opinion. Everyone is different but I do not like the thick padded cycling shorts. Kinda feels like a diaper. Female here so maybe it’s different for guys. I think my husband does like the thicker cycling zoot shorts. It’s a personal thing really.
That was my initial reaction too. It felt very sense, and didn’t know if it was just me. I have several pairs of DeSoto 400 Mile shorts but was looking for something else.
