When I first tried on these ¾ Knicks, the chamois felt like cardboard between my legs and quite stiff. I thought “Oh my God, I've made a mistake with these!”   I was busy getting ready and it was a cold morning, when after walking around for 10 minutes I noticed the chamois moulded to my body and felt ok on the ride but initially rigidity stuck in my mind.

I washed the Knicks and more them a few more time, when I noticed recently that now the chamois has softened up and doesn’t feel like it first did.

As we are in winter here in Australia, I have enjoyed wearing them on some long rides (for me) of 100km and found them to be ever so comfortable. The fabric is so silky smooth next to my skin and thermal. I can now highly recommend them. A great garment for in between seasons and those cooler days ahead.
