Bottom Line:
This work very well. While they might feel a little cool at first, as you warm up they quickly become very nice. I wear these with lyrca underneeth for the padding. The nice thing is you never really get too hot or too cold. They stay nice and comfortable. Overall they are great.

Strengths:
Good wind-blocking, wicks moisture efficiently, I don't get that frost bite itchy feeling after a sub 40 degree ride, keep legs feeling strong
Weaknesses:
Damn waist. I have an XL pair, and I weigh about 230 lbs, and I don't have a huge gut, but the draw string doesn't do a good job of keeping me from showing the plumber but. Small problem, nothing some lycra shorts underneath can't help, but annoying. Expensive
