ENHANCED 8-PANEL design for Bouré shorts. A traditional 8-panel design that provides maximum support throughout the entire short and a superior fit. Results in a seamless inner thigh to eliminate chafing in this sensitive area.
ARTICULATED HIP on shorts to mirror the biomechanical range of motion while in your cycling position so that the shorts fit naturally.
This is 3rd pair of shorts I have ordered in last year. I love them! I prefer the pro chamois over the elite. You make a great product. I ride 12,000+ miles a year and can't wear them out."
"...and yesterday I put them through an ultimate challenge, a hilly fixed gear ride. They were great! Very comfortable!"
"I rode your Elite and PRO shorts on the PAC Tour Northern Transcontinental this summer and, unlike many fellow riders, never had a saddle sore! "
"I bought a pair of shorts earlier in the year and liked them so much a got another pair a few weeks later. I did the triple bypass last Saturday and the only thing not sore was my rear thanks to your shorts."
"By the way I really do like your shorts - I have tried the high price Assos and they in no way compare in comfort to your shorts - I have a couple of the pro-shorts and look forward to trying these new shorts."
"I also own multiple pairs of your pro shorts which are far superior to any other brand I’ve ever worn and I’ve tried quite a few in the last 15 years."
