The layer under the shorts

At Maloja, the underwear mainly complements the loose-cut bike shorts and the long trousers without a pad. Padded cycling underwear is worn under shorts or trousers that do not have a pad of their own.

Under cycling shorts that are already padded, on the other hand, you do not wear extra underwear; otherwise the seams rub exactly where the pad is meant to protect you.

Tip: Wash padded inner shorts after every ride. The bike shorts over them only need this when necessary.
