Seamless compression shorts suggestions?

I'm looking for some seamless compression shorts for running.

i bought some under armour compression shorts but the seams are killing me. i can regular shorts for a few miles but after that the seams hurt. i have larger thighs from riding...and...ummm...eating....so i need help to make the longer (5k+) runs.

a company called zensah makes some and so does aisics. any suggestions?

I seemed to be ok with any kinds of pants when I used to run for long periods (1hr+). It was the chaffed nipples that killed me. THat was easily solved with a couple strips of bandaid.

I've never used them (you'd be surprised, but it tends to stay kinda warm here), but I'd be more inclined to go with Asics of the two you mentioned, just because they've been making running gear for a long time.

As for the chafed nipple thing, vaseline also works (I've heard...I usually go shirtless).
