Abstract: A seat pad (1) for cycling trousers comprises a front portion (11) adapted to be arranged in a crotch area of a cyclist, and a back portion (12) adapted to be arranged in a perineal area of the cyclist. The front portion (11) and the back portion (12) are joined by one or multiple seams (15) which are running sideways of a longitudinal center line (19) of the seat pad between opposing peripheral areas (17, 18) of the seat pad, wherein the seat pad takes a three-dimensional concave shape in the joining region (14) of the front portion (11) and back portion (12). The three-dimensional concave shape is formed in that opposing seam joining lines (161,162) of the front portion (11) and the back portion (12) are joined along the one or multiple seams (15) thereby closing a respective tapered gap (13) between the front portion and back portion on each side of the longitudinal center line (19).
