        Comments about Canari Gel Vortex Bike Shorts - Men's - Special Buy:

        The chamois is lined with fleece. Uncomfortable on and off the bike. Doesn't seem to wick, after half hour ride the fleece was wet with moisture. Just doesn't seem like a good idea, if I had known I wouldn't have got them. Sending them right back.

        Comments about Canari Gel Vortex Bike Shorts - Men's - Special Buy:

        I actually like these shorts and the fleece padding. I commute from Marin to SF and back and the fleece is so comfortable that I actually grab these shorts first whenever I have a choice (e.g., at the beginning of the week when all my shorts have been washed and ready to go). These are so comfortable that I will, if I am feeling a little sore, pack these for the commute home and wear another pair to work. I rationalize that if my rear is sore now, it will really be sore later, so better to have the fleece later.

        I could see how these might be too warm in hotter climates.

          Comments about Canari Gel Vortex Bike Shorts - Men's - Special Buy:

          These are the primary shorts I'm using right now, they have the right amount of padding for a gel short, I have a house brand gel pair from a national bike retailer and the gel there is way too thick. I find the fleece on these very comfortable for this time of year, we'll see how they fare when summer rolls around.
