Here in Central Texas, the heat and humidity will give you some grade A monkey butt. I tried the airhawk, and finally found true relief in the Alaskan Leather sheepskin.

Just googled them as I'd never heard of Exoficio.

I ride with jeans I cut the back pockets off. The seams on underware cut into my butt after awhile. So on long rides commando works best. I tried the HD seat pad didn't do much for me. A beaded cushion works better for me. Leather seats are better but my rider only Hammock works really good. I used to use a all leather Corbin Dual-Tour but now it it hurts my butt after 300 miles or so. The Hammock I can keep adding gas and keep riding it.

Equipo summer boxer briefs or Separtec boxer briefs. Is all I wear when I ride. Just did coast-coast-coast in 14 days and no issues.

360 miles is only slightly longer than a Sunday morning round trip ride to Starbucks.

Headed to Bar Harbor Maine last Sat. 610 miles first day and 550 miles second day before riding 2 lane mt roads. Wear Duluth brand drawers. No monkey butt. I know that's not many miles per day for you young whipper snappers, but not bad for a 72 year old geezer. Headed home now, 2654 miles so far, still no monkey butt (Mustang Super Tour seat). Believe Duluth currently has a sale on the underwear.
