    I have fairly short thigh bones so find a lot of bibshort legs fall an inch or so above my knee.

    It’s purely aesthetic but I like shorts that have a short inside leg. An old pair of Campagnolo ones are like this. A new pair of Funkier aren’t too bad but could do with being shorter.

    Any recommendations on makes /models with particularly short inseams?

    I noticed that Dave previewed Aldi’s new range recently and although the jersey had nice long aero arms, I couldn’t help noticing the shorts showed rather more leg than I’d be comfortable with. I’m now a bit worried that our Team road.cc/ Aldi kit for the Revolve24 might leave my legs looking a bit neopolitan!!

    Same here. Got some 2XUs. Pad is sooo thin. Fine for short rides I guess. Just use them training indoors now

    Before I learnt better, I bought some triathlon shorts which have shorter legs. But, they also have a thinner pad.

    +1 for Decathlon shorts. I have a few pairs and they’re great. Coincidentally, shorter than others as well.

    You could try Lusso. I am short in the leg and some of their waist shorts have suitably short inseams. Made in UK too and good value.

    I bought shorts at a Decathlon store in France last year that have 1970’s length legs.

    Maybe the same style is available here?
