Do these chaff? I was thinking of wearing them under pants while I commute by bike (~10 mile ride each way).

They didn't chaff on me, but I did not ride a bike. They are like pantyhose, just slightly heavier.

Since they're made out of silk, I don't think that they would chaff. However, I never wore them while riding that long on a bike. Depending on what type of material you wear on top, they could start to fray. I wore mine under jeans a lot and they eventually started to fray in some areas. That was after about three winters of wearing them constantly.

Yes, they work well for biking. They have hook and loop closure straps at the bottom of the legs that can be tightened enough to keep the material from getting caught in the chain. I have worn mine for over a hundred miles without a problem.

Yes. I wear them over my combat pants, which is made of 1000 Denier (very tough/coarse material) and don't have a problem with it. I imagine jeans would be even more comfortable.

I have only worn them in the metro bus and at work -- so, pretty stationary use is all I have basically ever used them for.They are decently fit snug-ish on my head, but I don't think they'd withstand running without getting knocked around a little..... but I could be wrong.

zippers and the boots go alll the way up to right under your butt cheeks ... i have had these like 3 months i was running on 30 when i talked to my sister that has used these or like these she said she uses hers on number 10 <they go to 100> the 10 -15 ish is far more effective then the 30ish 40 i was using also i wear leggin pants when i use them that way no "extra fabric " gets in the way pressing deeper into my legs ,,u can email me if u like kwilder@va.metrocast.net if u would like

Yes. I had the same question. Under pants no problem. Under a shirt it may get tight depending on the shirt. I actually wear them under my jeans,and hoodies and shirts. They are quite a solid product in terms of fit. The fit like a glove and don't feet heavy under you take them off if that makes sense. I would recommend them. i had my doubts but I've been very satisfied Hope that helps.

Yes they do. I love these!! There is no slipping so the pants hang very nicely.

DEFINITELY!!! I used this before I discovered cycling pants. Even with the padded pants on a recent cycling trip in Germany the combination provided an extreme level of comfort.

I find that the elastic or bands used around the leg area do not irritate and the brief all around is well padded. Never had a problem with chafing, might benefit from using an ointment ie A&D.;

I bought a size smaller than I usually wear because of the reviews saying they ran big. Mine fit like a glove, so I can't wear them comfortably over jeans. I would guess that if you bought them in your normal size, wearing them over snug jeans would work fine.

Probably. They fit well under most pants. Worth a little bulge for the protection.

Sorry, I like to be hot and I have had to run in frigid temperatures lately. I have not had these long enough to know how they behave in warmer temperatures. Based on my experience with other brands as well, they are no different in terms on how much I sweat. The support is excellent though. Hope this helps

For me, they kinda go at the waist and i can also pull them higher... I bought a medium and its not snug on me so when I run, they kinda slip down even when i pull them high above my waist. But that could be because I bought a size larger than required. They still don't rub or cut into my skin. Hope that answers your question.

I don't find them to be noisy, I put my workout pants on over them which may help.

They run pretty true, but they have elastic on the sides. They will be a little loose. If your waist size stays consistent that should help.

I don't think they are very bulky. I think you could wear them under jeans if you wanted to.

It really depends on the pants. I've worn them under sweatpants, but I think jeans would be tight.
