Tried this because of the reviews here. It's very soothing. I still have some packets of another brand that are portable and used some halfway through a ride yesterday and noticed that it irritated my skin. I will be passing that along to someone I know uses it. This is so gentle and soothing I even use a small amount after a shower to calm irritation caused by long miles.

There's really no comparison between this, Assos, Relief, or Chamois Butter. In my experience this lasts the longest, and uh, I guess the term would be lubricates the best. It helps that it's sized generously, so that helps relieve concerns about using too much of the expensive stuff. I think the only main other cream I haven't tried is DZ Nuts, but based on the size and price of that stuff, and how well this works, there's no need.

Having first tried Vaseline and Bag Balm I started looking for something that wouldn't turn my chamois/bathtub into an oil slick. This stuff seems to work well, comes out in the wash, and smells nice to boot. Will buy again.

This is it. Refreshing mint or something tingly without burning your privates off. I ride a lot of hard miles and I never leave home without my Buttonhole!
Review by EvoDavo
I've tried them all. My search is over. I will try different kinds of chain lube but I won't even THINK of using anything else. After using this stuff I gave my tubes and jars of unused chamois cream away.
It goes on thick and stays where you put it. No mess, no fuss It lasts through road races and long training rides. If I had a 100 miler I used to carry a little tube filled with chamois cream just in case. With Buttonhole there is no need. It lasts all day. It washes off in the post-ride shower.

For some unknown reason, I started developing saddle sores - not fun. Tried this based on a recommendation at my LBS. This is a better deal and works just as well as the more expensive competitor's product that starts with an A (I've used that one and it also works well). The ButtonHole cream is non-greasy and the smell doesn't bother me. Works great - I'm a permanent convert.

...she & her friends swear by it. It's become a stocking-stuffer at our house!

Based on another review, I decided to try this chamois cream. It has worked as well as the more expensive cream that comes in the same kind of jar and you do get more for your money
Review by Snow Pedaler
I tried Enzo's and then tried another brand of chamois cream. After that hands-on comparison, I purchased more of the Enzo's. The thing I like about Enzo's is that it is more water soluble than the other brand.

I prefer this product to most on the market. Longer lasting than most.
Review by SnotRocketeer
I've tried numerous chamois creams and found this stuff to be the best. Butt'r is too greasy and caused some major post-ride itching for me after a few months of use. DZ Nuts is good, but a bit too pricey for me. Button Hole is smooth, not too greasy, and has just the slightest tingle down below to let you know it's working. Plus, it's a good deal for the quality you get. I highly recommend it.

This is a great product. I have used Assos, That Butt Stuff, & Paceline.
I bought this because I had an allergic reaction to TBS cream that I bought.
I like this because it is all natural and there is no animal testing.
For the price you get more than Assos for the same price & same quality product.

It is thicker (more viscous) than most chamois creams out there, so it doesn't disappear quickly. Plus, it does have a cooling sensation which I like but others may not. I think the price is worth it if you have sit boneseat issues as I do.

I have used ButtonHole for years now, works absolutely great. I live in Florida and on those long bike rides, I'm glad I don't have to worry about getting sore.
Review by Miles S. Proud
Gets the job done very well for me at a good price point. Prefer Button Hole to Chamois Butt'r (which still works fine). Slightly prefer Assos on hot rides, as Button Hole tends to dilute a bit, but Button Hole is significantly cheaper and works just as well for me for 90% of my rides.

This is the most long lasting chamois cream I've found. It's my favorite. And it's relatively inexpensive compared to all the others. No animal products, no parabens, it's just good, functional and in it for the long haul.

Used to rely on using DZNuts and now I'm a Button Hole fan. The Button Hole has a noticeable sensation due to the peppermint. For the price, it is just as good and a better value than the DZNuts Pro.
Review by mlongman
I use this chamois cream before every ride and it has totally alleviated any type of saddle sores I used to get. I'm sure the guys behind me also appreciate the peppermint fragrance too! Excellent tingling sensations. I won't use any other chamois cream.
