Adidas adiStar Flow Bib Cycling Short

I really liked these shorts when I first wore them and for a few rides afterward. However, the glued on mesh ventilation panels are starting to peel off, even though I've only hand-washed them. The chamois is nice, and the ventilation is superb, but the lack of durability is just unacceptable.

The shorts fit big in the leg. You need some pretty monster sized thighs to fill up these shorts. I thought I had big thighs and I'm barely filling up the shorts for a size L. If you have Thor Hushvod sized legs these will work for you. Problem is the "Flow" panel which is made of a different type of fabric to promote breathing of the shorts is merely gluded to the rest of the short. After the first ride the panel on the inside of my right thigh started to peel away. For the price you are paying look for something else! Chamois is decent though, but I don't think these shorts will last a long time.
