Why We Like The ASSOS MILLE GT C2 Half Short
From our trainer in the office to the winding canyons up the road, the MILLE GT C2 Half Short provides comfort and functionality for our ride. The bib-free, zero-pressure waist doesn't irritate while we pedal on, and a panel insert on the front stretches to accommodate aero riding positions and deep breathing when we're working hard. Plus, the MILLE GT C2 chamois offers plushy support when we're in the saddle for hours at a time.

Just what I wanted
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I live in Tucson, AZ. In the summer, I have to begin bike rides before 4 am in order to avoid the heat that arrives as soon as the sun rises. I don't like to wear bibbed shorts because, in my opinion, the bib is hot. When my three pairs of Nalini cycling shorts were stolen in a smash and grab while I was visiting San Francisco I soon despaired. Nalini no longer offers shorts without bibs. It turns out only a few manufacturers do offer bibless shorts and two of those are brands that I won't buy for personal reasons. Those brands are the only ones offered at most cycling shops here. I had not heard of Assos prior to this search, but reviews I read were positive. From the moment I put them on, through the dozen (so far) rides I've worn them, I have been very pleased. Assos fits just like my former shorts. The legs do not ride up. The waist band does roll over a little, but I do not notice any discomfort. The chamois is very comfortable through the dozens of miles I ride at a time. The fabric wicks moisture quickly. I have found the shorts I was looking for and I will be buying more.

Typical Assos super high quality fabrics, good level of compression, and a partially sewn in chamois to prevent chaffing from the inner thigh contacting saddle movement. Absence of chamois padding for the perineal is something you didn’t know you needed. Additional thickness of material in front to hide your fella better than most shorts. Perfect fit in medium for 32 waist.

Chamois is not sewn in?

- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

The material of the short is excellent, however the chamois is only sewn into the short in the front and the back/not the part that contacts the seat. This leads to lots of movement of the chamois and bunching while riding/and consequently will lead to a lot of chaffing. I am sure the mobile chamois has some purpose, but I couldn't find it, and returned the shorts as a result.

More compression than the Mille GT shorts that I bought previously, which have been comfortable and durable. Chamois is also comfy in these.

If you want…..

an uncomfortable ride then buy these overpriced uncomfortable shorts. Like the other review said these shorts have a chamois that’s not completely sewn in. The sides and the top have no foundation at all, the design is terrible. The chamois bunches up while riding, it’s uncomfortable and irritating. Save your money and don’t buy.

Great Assos Product. You dont feel them.

They stay up, look slim, wash well and have great cushioning. And the best of all: I dont feel them. I love my Assos bib-less shorts.

I have two pair of the same shorts in bib form. These feel just as good, possibly better in the legs. Good compression, no discomfort around the waist, long rides in the saddle without undue pressure spots. Great shorts. Buying another two pair.
