Anyone have more info on the padding? I'm looking for 3-4 hour density padding. Thanks.

I've used them for mountain bike riding, for two hours at most. Very comfy.

I've found this padding to be comparable to my other cycling shorts, which I wear for century rides (5-6 hours). I think most of my shorts are rated for moderate riding, so that's probably what these are rated as well. If you're looking for padding as a way to help make your seat more comfortable on a bike, you might want to consider visiting a bike shop and comparing bike saddles as an additional option. I've been happy with these tights and have found them very comfortable. I've worn them on 2-3 hour rides with no problems. And as I said, they're comparable to the bike shorts that I wear for much longer rides. (I don't usually ride longer in the colder weather, so I haven't tested the tights on a century ride.)

I dont know what gensity padding is but I ride for hours in mine and wear them after we ride to go eat and all I can tell you is my butt and legs never hurt and are never cold and my husband says his butt never hurts when he wears his men ones that are the pearl izumi select thermal ones. Hope this helps

I have worn them on two and a half hour mountain bike rides and found them comfortable.

Truthfully, my husband and I don't notice the plastic being uncomfortable. By the time you go down, all the wait shifts and you are hanging comfortably. I imagine if there was some padding, it would feel better, but don't think cost would justify it. Hanging 20-30 min. is too long. I believe 10 min. more often would be better. My husband's herniated disk feels so much better as he inverts 7min. or so three times a day. He can't believe how much it helps his back get stretched to feel stronger!! Hope this helps! cw

I have really bad lower back pain also - this particular mattress is VERY firm - for me personally a little too firm and not enough cushion for my hips (side sleeper) and shoulder so we just ordered and got yesterday a 3in mattress topper with a 4lb density which seemed to really help - my husband loves the firm mattress and had no complaints. If this is too firm you might look at the 14 inch from innovations - apparently that one is a bit softer.

The Big Agnes air mattress I had was comfortable but terrible slick. I spent half the night sliding around. Much better to get a Thermarest sleeping pad. It's bulkier when rolled up but much more comfortable, especially on a concrete floor. Go with a Thermarest pad!!

Mine is the older model with the flat tops and no foam padding, looks like they did some modifications. It's a great dip bar I will say that, does the job. I wouldn't use it for anything else. Be safe!

No, that is not foam padding. I believe it is some sort of hard plastic. It is really solid though.

As it says in the description, "The 3.3 Cloud9 visco-elastic memory foam is SUPER SOFT being less dense and having a softer compression or ILD rating." This is a less dense memory foam and should react well in any weather. However, usually lower density foams do not last as long as higher density foams, but have faster recovery (you don't roll over and leave an impression that lasts a long while). I'm probably buying this because my new mattress, while very good, is extremely hard in our chilly Maine winter/spring.

No, sorry. I've only been using the original but agree it's not great....needs more padding. I've been thinking about how I can add some but haven't done anything yet.

Density relates to how tightly the foam is per square inch. It actually relates to how much the foam mooshes when you lay on it. The higher the density the more resistance to weight. Think of sitting on a cheap foam pad on a chair. It would flatten easily and you would feel the surface below it quite quickly. A dense foam pad would keep you above the hard board. My understanding the higher the foam density the longer it will provide the cushioned sleep you want. If you and your partner are large people you should be concerned with both depth of the matress as well as density of the foam. However if the density is too great it may not have the "coosh" you would expect. Non scientific answer but the best I can do

I buy a lot of uke cases and these are as good as it gets for the money. I haven't got one with me at the moment but I would guess the padding is maybe 3/4 to a full inch. Dan

The padding is about one quarter to three eighths of an inch thick. It is definitely thick enough for me.

I'd say it's about 2-3" thick. I think it's plenty of padding. I'm happy !!

Enough for what? It's high density foam so it is pretty dense and supportive. Both of my dogs are roughly 60 lbs each and seem very content with the padding.

I like it, nice padding I'm 6ft and heavier this past year and fits me good...still like new....wish the back lumbar area had little more padding but maybe that's me since I had a surgery last December...All padding seems to have held up really well so far and the Leather mix is just like NEW, some have said DON'T BUY THIS type of LEATHER but they didn't have a clue, it's Great..think we have had this for over a year so far. would I still buy again yes I would

sorry but i forgot where i bought my pad. I think it was from one of those addendums " people who bought this might be interested in these " . I think it is from the same Oxbridge Company. It is terrific, Thick but easy to roll up. I have a dedicated space so I leave in place and it still looks new. I use it over a wooden floor and it stays in place. best wishes, Doug

I do not know about the densities but I do know that only the top 3 inches are memory foam according to the manufacturer's tag on the bed the rest of the bed is composed of polyurethane foam however they manufacture it (ie foam to air ratio) to get different "types" it is all made of the same polyurethane material according to the manufacturer's tag 23% is memory foam (23% of 13 in = 3 in) 77 is polyurethane but that said that is the most comfortable bed ever
