They're better than shrink wrap, but the tapered ankle still sets them apart from average street wear.<BR/><BR/>My grocery run in jeans wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Back when I wore tighter jeans, my thighs would pump out from the exertion and the pants would strangle them. It was worth an extra couple of gears' resistance just to fight my pants. Now with a more relaxed fit they're as comfortable as my old painter pants.cafiendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05749761363337659545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9241204.post-5212659304708722492007-10-31T17:37:00.000-05:002007-10-31T17:37:00.000-05:00Track pants work well for me, though I also often ...Track pants work well for me, though I also often wear 'manpris'. Track pants are sufficiently baggy but with narrow ankles.Yokota Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04808661100114872654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9241204.post-42137653449529585512007-10-31T15:47:00.000-05:002007-10-31T15:47:00.000-05:00I used to wear my workday tee shirt for the commut...I used to wear my workday tee shirt for the commute home, but I changed to darker shirts, so now I wear a conservatively-patterned yllow and black jersey. No flashy pseudo-pro outfit. The shorts are lycra, but basic.<BR/><BR/>When I ride to a meeting (I'm on two town boards) I will wear "normal" shorts over the bike shorts for a summer event. I haven't ridden to a meeting in cold weather yet.<BR/><BR/>In each of the family cars I have shoes. In my wife's car I have the "car shorts." They're an acceptable pair of hiking shorts so I don't look too outlandish if I meet her for the home leg of the commute and we go to the grocery store.cafiendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05749761363337659545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9241204.post-58543792636398076782007-10-31T14:19:00.000-05:002007-10-31T14:19:00.000-05:00Tomorrow I'm moving to Sacramento, but for the pas...Tomorrow I'm moving to Sacramento, but for the past three years I've lived and commuted in a very conservative (read: red-necky) town north of Sac. I learned quickly that it was better for all parties involved if I commuted in "normal" clothes. If it was too hot, or I was traveling particularly far, I would simply wear bike shorts under light board-short or something similar.Dr. Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16542493767359114575noreply@blogger.com
