Answer 1

My wife is 5' 10" and her favourite shorts are made by Descente. They do have grippers -- she has yet to find quality shorts that don't -- but unlike the grippers in Louis Garneu shorts (which she doesn't like) she finds the Descente ones fine. The only issue with the Descente is the pad is narrower than some. So it's a tradeoff.
