I ordered 2 pr. of base layer riding shorts, called "HEAT OFF" from Amazon. They were shipped to me from Cycle Gear, and they arrived on time, but upon examination, I found they didn't have a fly!! NO FLY?!! Not good!! I called Cycle Gear to get instructions on how o return them for credit, and requested the return of the postage charges of $6.99, to get them to me, as well as return postage charges. Long story short ..... they refused the postage charges, saying that they would "refund the purchase price. Not postage charges." So, my issue is: How can they expect a man to wear them under his riding clothes, if he can't pee without pulling down his pants?? They explained that they were "Omni-sex", but their product description didn't say that, any where. I lodged a complaint with Amazon, explaining the situation, and they said they would fix the situation. So, my advice to our SL members is: BEWARE CYCLE GEAR.

Sounds like you're gettin your undies in a bundle about, well, gettin your undies in a bundle. Hmm, I guess we all pee differently, apparently. It's not like you drop your pants to the floor...or do you? Nevermind, don't answer that
I will say that the Adidas Clima Cool briefs I wear, have no fly. The same goes for the insulated ones I wear on really cold day for ice fishing.
But I hear ya as far as the return nonsense goes.
you should have gone to amazon direct. You did not order them from cycle gear to start with. i have the shorts and shirts, full and half head covering and they do a good job...glad you got it sorted out...

Bathroom technique when you have no Fly: Simply go to a stall ( bathroom of your choice Men--Women or
Undecided. Pull pants and Heat Off shorts down together, sit on seat and pee your little heart out!
Now that's not too hard is it? Life is full of difficulties, one must learn to accept and adjust!
BTW most online stores do not pay return postage.

If you look closely at the pictures in the catalog or online it is pretty obvious that there is no fly. I agree with Chupaca you should go through Anazon since that is where you bought them.

I really don't mean to sound unsympathetic; but a bit more research on your part just might have prevented this from happening.
If you consider the shipping cost, as the "Price Of A Lesson Well-Learned"; it might not hurt so much.

Not sure I understand the issue.
There is nothing wrong with the product and you are complaining about the return policy that is available to read online?
I have this same product and plan to buy a few more actually.
If a fly was added, that would add seams which could create discomfort. I specifically wear these because there are no seams. Also, adding a fly would increase costs.
I purchase almost all my riding gear at CG because they have a solid return policy and always work with me if there is an issue. Fortunately I have a few local stores (3 actually) if needed but I've also ordered online. Although not always the most knowledgeable, everyone I've spoken to is super nice.

But you have to read it, and so many people don't.
Also if you buy through Amazon you need to always go through Amazon for the return.

All you have to do is look at the picture to know that there is no fly. I wear them and I haven't wet my self yet. Sometimes the horse has to jump the fence instead of going through the gate. Oh and had you gone through Amazon, they would have credited you in a heart beat.
