Yeah, they do raise you just a bit. Not enough for me to not use the beads and suffer from swamp butt though.

Nobody has mentioned powder. Anti monkey butt or cornstarch helps a lot with the "sweats".

Compression shorts, beads or sheepskin plus powder all go a long way in preventing summer misery

ORIGINAL: Qball

Under AmourBoxerJock shorts are more like regular under wear. Don't get the compression ones. I wear the t-shirts as well every day at work. I don't think I will wear cotton underwear again in the summer!
I disagree about the boxer shorts. Have tried both and the compression one's work a lot better, especially if you putting in a long day ridingNo creep and bunching

Try goldmanbros.com for UnderArmor. Good prices and fast delivery. I discovered the wonders of UA in Iraq and now do not leave home wthout wearing it. It's pricey, but I have t-shirts that I've had for two years and in spite of weekly washes they are like new. Cotton tees usually are rags after a year. Get the compression shorts, not the boxers. XXL is up to 44 waist, but I wore them with a 46 waist and they were comfortable. The material really stretches. Now I have a 42 waist and they still fit fine.

Wednesday I went to vegas and Sunday I rodeback to Colorado Springs.
I used the beads I fasioned from the car seat version.
As predicted it worked but was not as comfortable as the seat, but far more comfortable than the sweating and chafing.
And yes, I rode pretty much straight through stopping only for gas and 2 meals.
830 miles, 13 hours out, 16 hours back. Last 300 miles back was in light to heavy rain.

I am going to try and find smaller beads. I want more comfort. But it worked.

I think this is what he is referring to:



Since I have returned, this is all that I wear. The only thing bad about them is the price of $19.95 each.
