Really great value
I've been road and mountain bike riding wearing these shorts for over a year now, around a couple thousand miles. I have found them to be of fantastic value. The chamois felt a little stiff at first, but once the shorts were broken in after a few ride/wash cycles, they fit great and feel wonderful on the bike.The stitching is amazingly solid for the price range. My thighs are a bit large, so the stitching around the legs has popped somewhat because I leg stretched the openings on purpose, but all the other stitching remains perfectly intact.

In Terms of Size, Third Time's The Charm; Kinda...
Had to purchase three pairs (returned two; thanks Amazon) because the size was to small or tight, not so much in the waist but big time in the thighs. First bad was on me in that I missed the seller's note regarding Asia size vs. western or USA in my case; it's apparently a 1 inch difference with Asia (mens) clothing sizing being smaller... whatever. The medium was an oblivious no-go; again, my bad. So, tried a large. The waist fit okay but again, the thighs were WAY to tight. Many thanks to one reviewer, aka "An Informed Buyer" who posted a sizing chart with what at least for me turned out to be an accurate cross reference between waist/thigh measurements and the manufacture's named sizing; i.e, Medium, Large X-large, etc. In the end, the large had to be returned and exchanged for an extra large which is still a little tighter in the thighs than I would like but I can live with that.In terms of performance, it's all very good! Other than cycling underwear I've worn in the past, this is the first pair of regular cycling shorts I've purchased and am quite happy with the comfort, support and overall feel, even on extended or very hard rides. The padding's just right for me; my nether's aren't complaining.Edit:08/26/20Recently ordered and received another pair of Santic's cycling pants. Not much to say other than 4th time's the charm this time around... all good.

Good short for the money
(Update)- So it's been about 3 years. I'm not sure if they've changed the sizing, as the size chart looks different now compared to when I originally ordered. So a medium might actually fit a medium frame now, and now that I'm thinking of ordering another pair, I'm not sure on the sizing again.Anyway, my point in updating is to say the shorts have lasted pretty darn well. Really they are about the same as the first day I used them. They are my indoor trainer shorts, so don't get used quite as much as my outdoor kit, but they've been solid. I would buy again for sure. Just need to figure out sizing... again. Original review below. I was going to say I wasn't going to update to 5 stars simply because they still feel a bit cheap, but then I realized... they ARE cheap, so really no reason not to. So 5 stars now. Cheers.So, the first time I ordered I ordered the XL. I'm basically a 33" waste, with pretty large thighs. The thighs were my concern, as they measured even the max size for the XL. However, the issue is that while the leg bands were pretty tight, the waste band was, while tight enough, not that tight. So even though I held onto the XL pair, I ordered a LG pair to compare, and figured if they didn't fit I would just send them back and would probably not order another pair.So the LG are tighter on the thigh, but not so much that my circulation is an issue at all, and I don't have any discomfort. The waste band is tighter, which is nice so they don't creep down on rides as easily as the XL.Chamois: So the chammy, so far, is fine. When you're just walking around in them, it feels a bit like a diaper, as it it is pretty stiff and sticks outward from your buttocks a bit so it certainly doesn't feel all that flattering. On the bike, it feels fine. It's not as good as really high performance chamois spandex, but it seems a little better than the low end chamois from big manufacturers' lower end models. I'm not sure how the chamois will hold up over time, which makes me a little reticent to order another pair.That all said, the price is really great, and hard to beat. I work in a bike shop and nice spandex still cost me about 2x as much as these. Of course those are the premium models, so not a straight comparison I realize. Just giving some context. If the chamois lasts a year, I'll be impressed and certainly ready to order more.I think based on the quality so far, these shorts get a 4 star rating, but for value, so far, I would say 5 star. For now I'll hand over a 4, and if the chamois holds up for a while, I'll adjust to a 5.

Good value for the money
I ride 2-3 times per week up to 20 miles per ride. These rides include recreational use and commuting by bike to work. The shorts are very comfortable and the padding is better than any other shorts that I have owned. The materials are high quality and we will see how they hold up so another review may be in order. I am 5'9" tall and about 190 lbs. and I am wearing the medium, which fits almost perfectly. I think that these were the best shorts for the price that I could find.

Good Fit → Great Padding
This is my second purchase of the Santic shorts. I bought 2 pair about 5 years ago and worn them regularly. They work well on long (1.5 to 3 hour)rides.The durability on my first 2 pairs was outstanding.3XL. I’m 6’ 2” and 230 pounds

OK for the cost
A few things about these shorts that anyone contemplating buying needs to know. First, they are Asian sizes so be sure to order up one or maybe two sizes. I wear a size L in all my more expensive name brand cycling shorts and had to go to XL with these that fit quite well. I was surprised by the material and seams which appear to be pretty good quality. However now to the two major negatives. First, while on a two hour ride the leg grippers kept pulling up and in essence, they rode up about 3 inches on my leg (exposing end of my tan line). Second negative is the chamois. Yes in the sitting area it is quite thick but that did not bother me as your buns are well protected and comfortable. However I wish I could same the same for my jewels. Not near as much padding in this crucial area and it did ride up creating a pulling and pinching feeling during most of the ride. That being the case I will probably keep them for my shorter rides only because of the low cost. If I had known of these issues I may not have bought them despite the cost.EDIT: sorry but these are going back. Main reason is how short the inseam is. I measured about 7 inches which is the reason they rode up on my leg so high. I need 9 - 10 inseams.

No More Sore Bum!
Bike shorts are not all the same for sure! This product is great as it really does feel like there is a lot of padding in there. After a few initial MTB rides, yes that padding is top notch! I always wear shorts over the top to extend the life of the cycling shorts. Nothing worse than see-through lycra! RIGHT? Recommended.

Fits comfortably without applying excessive pressure
Padding is sufficient for moderate 40km to 80km rides.
