FR-C Pro Short
Quite possibly the most annoying event to occur when cycling is when your kit bulges, pinches, and wrinkles uncomfortably around your body. It poses as not only a fashion-don't, but also a full blown distraction from your ride. While this issue may exist through some kits, you can count on Giordana's FR-C Pro Shorts to skip the awkward fits, and instead dial you in with a contoured cut that's perfectly tuned to mimic your body when you're in the drops, on the tops, or riding on the hoods of your bars. This smooth-fitting short is carefully crafted with stellar materials, like HC-50, which provides both compressive properties, and active wicking to keep you feeling cool and dry through the miles. It packs in a high thread count that ushers moisture away from skin, and partners up with abrasion-resistant Zaffiro 2.0 fabric for extended durability on the inner panels, preventing scuffing and wear against rough saddles. The 190 E bands spread a soft, non-restrictive, and gently compressive grip across the 7.5-centimeter-wide cuffs keeping the hems in place.
Like all Giordana women's apparel, these shorts are designed using its Women's Contour Fit System. Panels and construction is optimized for the female form in the riding position. The cut is a race fit that facilitates an aerodynamic silhouette and is suited for warm to hot weather rides where comfort in key. The top-of-the-line, women's specific Cirro chamois is your buffer to the saddle and its seamless, single-piece insert has foam padding of varying thicknesses and densities to ensure comfort while minimizing bulk. It's elastic, so it moves and stretches with you as you ride, and then returns to its original shape when you're done. The outer layer of the pad uses a special Nylon microfiber that incorporates aloe vera for its protective and hygienic properties. This aloe vera treatment is permanent.

Seems to be a good short but it runs very small. I am a size 6 and normally wear a small in this brand but with this short, I'm sizing up to a large.
