In the old days, the inner layer was chamois leather (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamois_leather) though now it's synthetic. (Supposedly, cotton isn't nearly absorbent enough.)<BR/><BR/>This leads to a product called "chamois butt'r." I kid you not: http://www.teamestrogen.com/products.asp?pID=3921<BR/><BR/>I think I understand why all biker shorts seem to be black. And yet, everyone I've talked to who bikes more seriously than I do (and that would include most 7 year olds) says that biker shorts are incredibly comfortable and wonderful. So what the heck.Bardiachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11846065504793800266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17974015.post-49188778166538326972007-03-12T15:01:00.000-07:002007-03-12T15:01:00.000-07:00I second that - how are you supposed to wear them?...I second that - how are you supposed to wear them?
