They are still around and selling wool cycle clothing and their prices are pretty reasonable. Smokey

Approximate size 32 american. IIRC the brand is "Kucharac", but I doubt I'm spelling that correctly. Woolies from the pre lycra era. They probably don't have the anti torque feature you mentioned but they'll protect your jammer. They're just sitting in a drawer now. I'm willing to pass them on to a "good family". Contact me if you're interested.

Probably mean Kucharik and they're still in business though I'm sure they haven't made Madison shorts in a heck of a long time. I'd be willing to bet that Johnny's son could made some up on special order though.

They should also have an extra (doubled) panel around the top 4-5 inches, so your partner doesn't torque your shorts if he grabs your jamming tool. [Insert obligatory jamming tool comments here]
