Miss America short is very
"Miss America short is very comfortable--breathable fabric, just the right amount of padding, true to size. I am wondering how durable the leg grip tape is going to be as it seems a bit flimsy."

Chamois
Flex Air Max Chamois:
The Flex Air Max was developed to provide an extra level of comfort by adding two additional foam layers in key positions on the chamois surface. This multi-density approach is combined with Terry’s innovative shaping and soft wing technology. Seamless chamois with 4-way stretch Elastic Interface Technology provides freedom of movement on the saddle; multi-density foam padding is perforated for increased breathability; light, channeled microfiber fabric in Terry pink is antimicrobial and enhances moisture transfer; soft wing construction reduces bulk at inner thigh to avoid chafing. Made in Italy.

product care
Remove your shorts and launder asap for best results as residual sweat may damage the chamois. Wash only in delicate cycle at 86 degrees. Use neutral non-aggressive detergents, keep like colors together and avoid dryers. If you use chamois butter/cream, your garment's ability to wick moisture will be greatly reduced and the durability of your chamois may be compromised. Note: we recommend that you wash new bottoms prior to use.

Love All but one deal breaker
"LOVED the fit, fabric, waistband, padding, 9"length. However, elastic in leg does not hold shorts in place and they ride up even past the tan line for my 8" short length. Annoying when riding but even more so when stopped and have to readjust. Will be returning."
Not Polyester
"I almost didn't buy these because the Terry website says they are 73% polyester, and I didn't want hot, thick shorts. These are 73% nylon with a beautiful, comfortable, and breathable fabric. My hips measure 38", and I opted for size medium. The compression is perfect: not too constricting. yet supportive. Very comfortable. My favorite cycling shorts to date."
Comfy
"Wore these for a ride after not being able to bike for 2 months. Good fit and loved the padding. Supportive but don’t feel too tight. Looking forward to wearing again!"
just right
"I am riding 35-42 miles twice a week. I realized the shorts in my drawer were at least 20 years old! These have been perfect. Just the right amount of cushion ."
Nice fabric
"I usually wear the Grand Touring short but decided to try these based on description of extra padding in the chamois. I can’t tell any difference. The short fabric is soft and comfortable. The waistband is a bit loose. The zipper on the pocket is a bit awkward and unnecessary. A second pocket would be a better addition to these shorts instead of the zipper. If you’re between sizes you can size down."
Really nice short, but. . .
"When I first put them on, they felt perfect. But when I rode with them the first time, the legs kept riding up. I had to constantly keep pulling them down. There needs to be wider, stronger elastic around the legs to help them stay put."
