Women's Standard Issue Endurance Shorts

Best chamois I have ever used! I prefer a little bit shorter short than standard baggies that also multitask as hiking shorts, so I use these under my Eddie Bauer shorts. I wore this chamois riding trails in pouring rain on the Pinhoti in Georgia, and they were comfortable the entire ride.

Extremely comfortable and they are reasonably priced. They are my daughters go to shorts for riding MTB and CX.

My daughter loves these shorts.,Thry are her go to for rides and races . Currently, she owns 2 pairs . If they came in more colors, I would buy her more of them.

The chamois is perfect on these and the quality is top notch however, for a size Large, they run pretty small compared to other liners I have. Next pair, I'll size up but, these fit like a medium. I've ridden nearly 3 hours with them on and I wasn't sore the next day!! That says a lot!!

Ordered my normal size L. When I pulled it out of the package it looked like youth? Exchanged for an XL. Still tight “girdle” fitting but the chamois is comfortable so I’m keeping. Runs small. I have other Cognative bottoms that run true to size.

Love these shorts. I'll likely buy more soon

The shorts fit great. I have large thighs and find it difficult to find a pair of chamois that stay in place and don’t roll up!

Wife lives them, says amazing fit and comfort!!

The waist fits great but the thigh area is not for anyone with thicker thighs.

And there I was sitting in chest deep chilly water, wait I think I need to start at the beginning... If you ride in Central FL you have probably heard of Carter Rd (Loyce Harp Park) in Mulberry/Lakeland. The trails there weave in and out of swamp/lake/ponds with technical exposure to said water. Over the weekend I was excited to try out my new bum pad shorts and donned them with glee. I love all my CM gear and had high expectations for this new addition. As my friends and I rode in the chilly air, I had a happy bum. The padding is situated front to back/side to side perfectly. Comfy bum, happy me. Anyways, then I clipped a wise old tree and tumbled unceremoniously into the murky waters on Lord of the Flies. Soaked, 100% soaked. After extracting myself, with help cause that's a whole thing, we rode on. These shorts took this swim with aplomb! My bum did not feel sloppy/soaked/gross/wet at all over the remaining 7ish miles we rode. Even while changing they were the least wet clothing item I removed. I am sold. I will be highly recommending these to all my friends and to you dear reader. Excellent price point, great performance, and just all around comfortable to wear. Buy these shorts ladies you won't be unhappy.

These fit me good but they don't stay in place. I think the addition of something to make them stick to the skin along the legs and waistband would help them stay in place better. The padding is nice and works well.

Love these shorts! Super comfy padding, much more comfortable than some of the more expensive brands. My only feedback would be to make them slightly longer as they are shorter than typical shorts if you don't plan to wear them as under shorts. Definitely recommend these shorts!!

I originally ordered two pairs in size M, based on the size chart, but they ran very small. I ordered another two pairs in size L, and they fit better. I love the waist, it is very comfortable, and nicely smoothes things out. However, when I bend at the waist— when riding— the waist immediately rolls down and bunches under my baggy shorts. Maybe if I lose a few pounds it won’t be an issue (but the shorts fit well when I’m standing)?

These are by far my favorite bike shorts. The waist band and leg bands and so comfortable and smooth. I’ll definitely be buying more.

…when I saw Cognative MTB has a short rated for hours of use, similar to the Club Ride rating, but for 4-5 hour rides instead of a mere 3, and at a better price. I bought two pair (to take advantage of free shipping), and I am so glad I did because these are the only shorts I want to wear now! We recently took a week long trip to northern Georgia, and even though I packed other liners, I opted to wear a pair of my Cognatives each day. They were comfortable and stayed in place even when sopping wet (once from taking an unplanned dip in a creek crossing, another from getting caught in the rain). I will definitely be purchasing more and eventually replace my other shorts. These can be worn as bike shorts without baggies over top as well.

The endurance shorts are super-comfortable, particularly while under biking shorts. The chamois fits nicely and the yoga waist and leg bands are smooth and non-binding. With that said, the waist rolls on me during movement on my mountain bike and the legs do creep up. I do a lot of technical riding, so they may not be as much of an issue for road or less strenuous riding. For me, these would be perfect with a slightly firmer waistline and a bit of grip on the inside of the leg bands. Keeping them however as the comfort is perfect for my gravel rides.

These shorts are perfect! Love the new design of the waistband…that was my only problem with the old style. Thanks so much for listening to feedback and creating a perfect pair of comfortable and affordable shorts. Can’t wait for the 3/4 length to come out in the new style!

The new elastic band on the shorts are perfect. Super comfortable, not too tight on the thighs. I will definitely be ordering another pair & have already recommended it to other riders!
