Do these chaff? I was thinking of wearing them under pants while I commute by bike (~10 mile ride each way).

They didn't chaff on me, but I did not ride a bike. They are like pantyhose, just slightly heavier.

Since they're made out of silk, I don't think that they would chaff. However, I never wore them while riding that long on a bike. Depending on what type of material you wear on top, they could start to fray. I wore mine under jeans a lot and they eventually started to fray in some areas. That was after about three winters of wearing them constantly.

I do wear this under jeans and other shorts. Just take them off when you get to work if they are too tight. Put them on when you are going to ride again.

really good, they won't move around at all, i use them all the time when lifting weights and on the stationary bike. The sweat can be a problem, but just wipe it off from time to time and it shouldn't be a big deal.

I bought a size smaller than I usually wear because of the reviews saying they ran big. Mine fit like a glove, so I can't wear them comfortably over jeans. I would guess that if you bought them in your normal size, wearing them over snug jeans would work fine.

Yes they do. I love these!! There is no slipping so the pants hang very nicely.

Yes/No. Yes: They keep me covered temperature wise on my ride to work, but I'm in sunny socal, so the whole climate is wind resistant. It's a thin outdoor/breathable material. No: These are shorts, with a breathable material. Would I use these to bike on a cold Chicago day, maybe, I'm a sweater, so it'd keep me balanced; but once you stop riding/moving around, the punishment would ensue. Hope this helps.

Dont know about sizing; but you might want to consider a full bike pants for cold weather instead of these. I find mine tend to ride down my thighs when I am riding

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.)

Yes, they fit well under any clothing and will keep you warm. I wear them on my mail route and am in Minnesota. You shouldn't get too warm yet remain comfortable.

No. But they are really lightweight. Nice for short trips around town. If I'm going more than 10 miles though I wear traditional bike shorts underneath them. Was just getting ready to order another pair for summer.

Probably. They fit well under most pants. Worth a little bulge for the protection.

I don't use them for biking, but I do use them in the winter for pedaling my kayak...works the same. I wear insulated socks with them and they work great for me.

I've never done it. It think it woukd be a little unconfortable for me. Also if you excersise during the day most likely they are going to be wet at night. However I was thinking on buying the pants and sleeping in them.

Yes. I wear them over my combat pants, which is made of 1000 Denier (very tough/coarse material) and don't have a problem with it. I imagine jeans would be even more comfortable.

I would definitely say yes. I wear them over a pair of insulated pants with large cargo pockets and rip stop fabric and often times forget I'm even wearing them.
