Go to Mens shorts and look for the nema shorts and knickers, the only shorts left are small sizes but plenty of knickers left in all sizes, I have a couple pairs of these and they are really nice.

Have you got the shorts or knickers? Are the knickers Nemas?

They are Nema knickers, I have 2 pair and I really like them, comfortable with lots of hideaway pockets.

Go to mens pants and shorts and they're on page 2 and 3 I think.

they dont say Nema, but they are, and the most common sizes go fast im sure.

They only have x-small and small left. I have a 31/32 waist, so I wonder if the small would fit. Since they don't list waist sizes, I have no clue. Anyone know waist sizes?

Anyone know waist sizes?I have a couple pairs and they run quite small, so im not sure but try one for 7.99 and if they dont fit sell 'em to someone for $15.:D

No luck. I just got an email saying "too bad" after getting a confirming email yesterday. At a price like that I knew it was too good. :banghead: :mad: :embarass:

...i did end up ordering some of these last week and just got 'em yesterday - a pair of the knickers-style, and the mtb shorts style.. the knickers do indeed have a nema tag on the outside (althought the tag on the inside says "Classic Man"... so anybody's guess if they're genuine). They don't have an awesome chamois pad or anything, it's a pretty basic pad, but heck, for 7.99 it's a pretty decent shot!
The fit is ok, but on the trim/small side... I got a small in both, and usually buy 30-waist stuff, and they fit, but not with lots of extra room.
The knickers have a funny flower-ish graphic on the left knee.
Looks like they just put up a new style on the site too w/a different knicker, black/red, and they have that in Medium & Large... so if you wanted a larger size - act fast...
Anybody else buy a pair?

I checked out this site. I ordered some shorts. Had some trouble.
I made an order for a pair of shorts from
http://www.classiccloseouts.com/home.asp
4 days later I got an e-mail saying they were out of stock. I thought ok no problem. I was wrong, its now been 2 weeks and they still havent put the money back on my credit card. I called my bank to see what could be done, they said call the company. I called Classic Closeouts and after I got hung up on 3 times, by the same person, finally got someone to help. I was told that it could take a couple days for them to work it out. I said that it had already been 2 weeks whats the problem ? I was told that they would see what they could do about it and to call back tommorrow.
To me this is not very good costumer service.
Anyone else had this problem ?

Got em and from What I see, they are factory seconds, probably rejected by Nema, and the factory that made em sold them with a new tag to make a buck.
They come complete with permanently wrinkled material, seams stiched by drunken factory workers, fraying edges, and a poorly stitched 2 piece chamois that really rubs wrong when you are not riding...:sick:
But, eh, got two pair with shipping for $21.00; and my better half says they make my calves look sexy. highly recommended.
Just wanted to bring this to everyone's attention:

Two weeks ago I noticed a $49.99 charge on my credit card statement regarding a purchase from Classiccloseouts.com. I haven't ordered anything from there but once, and that was the shorts over a year ago. I did a search online and it appears this is not an isolated incident (http://forums.slickdeals.net/showthread.php?t=853507).
Check your card statements for fraudulent charges from this place!
