Athletic compression shorts. I wear them every time I get on the bike, without exception to what else I'm wearing/where I'm going, etc etc. Keeps "the goods" out of the way....I don't know if you've ever sat down just wrong but wow does that suck big time :cuss: In my experience it wicks sweat away well in the heat, and keeps warmth in during the cold. Now, I'm a hairy dude, and wearing normal boxers on the bike is very uncomfortable and results in chafing in the heat.......with the compression shorts that's not a problem.
There are motorcycle specific shorts with padding along the hips and whatnot, I know Icon makes a pair. I've never had any experience with them, just never felt like dropping the $$ down for them when I'm already (for lack of better a term) covered.
Ride safe
