The pad is great but the fancy strips at the bottom of each leg are rough on the skin. They look good but are made of some rough material that that chafes against the skin.
This is a great wind-resistant base layer that Giordana no longer offers. I was happy to get what I assume was NOS for a great price. Classic Cycling was great from a customer service perspective. I'll be buying from there again.
I've only been on a handful of rides, but the compression and fit are super comfortable on long rides.
so far so good -
used them in many crits so far - held up perfectly -
next up - washing/shrinking/ etc
