    I was bought a pair of Polaris shorts last year; the shorts themselves are a good fit, but the pad is a little thin and not well shaped.

    For the winter I got a pair of DHB Merston bibtights. Marvellously warm and comfortable, thicker pad which if anything is a bit too large (maybe I should've had the next size down)

    No idea about the difference between the two DHBs you mention

    I've recently bought a pair of the DHB Finchdeans. Not used the others on your list.

    I've found them to be incredibly comfortable and would recommend them. They have gel inserts in the seat pad which soak up a lot of road vibration. Thinking about getting a second pair. The good thing about getting them from Wiggle (who I believe are the sole UK distributors for DHB) is that they have a no fuss returns policy.

    Good luck in your quest for comfy shorts!! Let us know which ones you end up with and what you think about them.
