|   Chamois Cream | gf101
Mar 13, 2002 5:32 AM | | I have an older pair of PI Ultra Sensor shorts that the chamois is hardening up on and irritates my thigh on longer seated sections. Will chamois cream help with this? Is there any thing else that can be used in place of specific chamois cream? Vaseline? |

PS. it maybe time for new shorts. try Voler their chamois doesn't cause chaffing. You can get Voler made shorts off IMBA for 35$ good luck |

It's great for lessening saddle sores, though I'm not sure that it's going to solve your shorts problem (the newer PI shorts have a great chamois--might be time to invest). |

Mar 13, 2002 6:39 PM | | I just bought a new pair of Sugoi shorts, the salesman never said anything about putting any cream on them, this is the first pair that i have had, but is this needed? or just after they start to wear out?
