It's edging towards wet-arse time again.
Are waterproof shorts all a much of a muchness or do some work better than others? Always seem to get wet on the inside (not pissing myself) as much as the outside. Endura MT500 seem to be quite good but quite spendy....anyone know of any good ones pref in a sale ATM? Cheers

Also got some Madison Zeniths a while ago and they are great, there are probably some other Madison ones in the sales - always seems to be usually.

I bought some Madison DTE Softshell shorts, which are waterproof.

I'd say they come up a bit large, I bought Large but probably should have got Medium.

To throw another into the mix, the H20 Mavic ones, very good, work well but you need to hunt them out in the sale as they are a bit spendy at full RRP but easy to hunt down much cheapness online :/

They are just overshorts / outside layer so wear your normal preference of lycra or baggy liner inside depending on weather, outlook or fashion preferences 🙂
