May most comfortable knicks cost $240..but they are the best I have had,but I do get pressure point problems so anything to help is worth it.Plusthey usually last 4-6months.(thats up to 150 days use so not such a bad cost per day)Jeremy wrote:hahaha, i'm not brave enough to try thattoolonglegs wrote:much easier to pee while rolling...

What about 'Felt' or 'Team Liquigas' (pronounced 'Leaky Gas') emblazoned across your butt?winona_rider wrote:just my two cents - but wearing "giant" branded nix (no offence to that company or product) if you have a huge bum might not be the wisest product endorsement.

I suspect this also has something to do with one's body shape. I have not had this waist problem with all my knicks (including one Aldi brand used primarily for local rides) and have found them perfectly comfortable with good staying power. The only pair that requires the occasional pull is the Assos pair. They have this special waist elastic design to reduce the amount of compression and improve on comfort but it kind of worked in reverse for me.Andrew Grace wrote:As said above they don't cut into your waist and they stay in the right place.

You want to be careful about that sort of thing. I had a pair of Netti Twilight knicks chafe me horribly on the inner thighs because the chamois was moving slightly and the edges of it were rubbing against my skin.stryker84 wrote:Mind you, they're not the best, the chamois slips around a tiny bit sometimes

Here's an idea: a pair of knicks with a Brooks saddle built in.europa wrote:Funny. A Brooks saddle costs as much as a medium pair of nicks and you'll never need to wear nicks again
Well, you won't if you've got a leather rump like me

This can be the next clothing subject up for discussion. I too wish there are more full zip jerseys out there.Blybo wrote:...can I recommend that you only buy full zipper jerseys. I almost had a nasty accident 1 day when I struggled to get my too tight and sweaty 1/4 zip jersey off so that I could get the bib section off. That jersey is only for commuting duties with my normal knicks now
