Enjoy these shorts in terms of the comfort; however, the
elastic banding can be quite uncomfortable. I'm hoping to take these to a
tailor to remove the elastic to mimic more of a Louis Garneau waist line.
I typically wear a size 12 and ordered a Large and it fits
well. I like which the band on the thigh is a little wider and doesn't create a
'bulge' on the thigh but it still holds the short in place. The chamois is
comfortable and is breathable, but it is somewhat minimal. The seams are flat
and well constructed. Overall a nice biking/spinning short and am glad with the
buy.
These are fantastic bike shorts for women. The elastic around the thighs and waist do not dig in like some spandex-y bike shorts which sit on an area where us ladies tend to have a bit more flesh. The lycra material is a bit thinner than some, but are a fantastic intermediate priced bike short. The shamois (padded bum part) is pretty nice. This is my first pair of Pearl Izumi shorts, and at $45, fantastic short to try. And yes they are certainly shorter than most shamois bike shorts, but fantastic for getting a little tan on your thighs while peddling.
Fantastic riding shorts, i enjoy the length of it, they are
shorter than the regular shorts. They too run a little big, i usually wear
medium, but this ones i must reorder them in small.
I am currently trying to work up to a 20 mile ride (from
basically nothing)...I took my first ride regarding 8 miles with no padding and
can I say OUCH. I talked to my brother who told me a. I required to get
"used to being in the saddle which long" and b. I necessitate a nice
pair of padded bike shorts. Begin a "beginner" I did not want to
spend a fortune...so the price was what first attracted me to this pair. I was
somewhat nervous regarding ordering "tight" shorts because I'm a size
14 but I just went with what the sizing chart told me and ordered an XL...COMPLETE!
I've ridden twice because I got these and it was a perfect 180 from my first
ride...I although added 50 lbs of weight by pulling my son in the trailer
behind my bike and the cushion is amazing! I'd recommend them to anyone who
wants to take long rides (and the price is fantastic too). Well made too.
When I first tried on these shorts, I was pleasantly pleased
with how they match and I enjoy the splash of pink on the sides. However, once
I wearing them, I discovered they were a tiny bit also big. I don't like
clothes form matching by any means, but when I am cycling, I like my bottoms to
match me just correct. These shorts are by no means uncomfortable or taxing
during a ride, they just don't match completely; that for my frame (I am a
curvy 5 ft even), doesn't surprise me.
These are fantastic for spinning class. They keep you padded
where you necessitate it but are not embarrassing to walk around in at the gym
(doesn't look also bulky). They aren't really long, but aren't super
short...just complete. They are made out of good material and I like the
construction on the top, it keeps it from doubling over when sitting on your
bike....and the bottoms stay put too. I am extremely glad with these shorts and
may order more!
Cannot tell you how much I enjoy these shorts! They arrived
the night before my 5am spinning class and I could not wait to get to class the
next morning. They match fantastic--true to size, snug but not tight, and not
also short (I was worried regarding which since I'm 5'10".) The padding is
just correct--not also much, not also little and not also bulky to walk without
feeling strange. Would highly recommend them--so much therefore I'm getting
ready to order another pair!
I enjoy these shorts. They have a soft non-restrictive
waist. The legs stay down with soft grip tape and the shorter inseam is good
for shorter gals.
Match is extremely true to size. They wash and dry well.
Substantial padding for spinning indoors and 20+ mile rides. Length is better
on these than the Speed Short for my 5'10 frame. Legs are not also tight on my
fairly lean but muscular build. Haven't stretched out. Legs stay in place
extremely well, no rolling. Exactly recommend for warmer weather rides.
I just lately started cycling and was looking for some sort
of padding after my first extremely painful ride. After the pain I applied these
short to cycle once more on a road bike and it went extremely well. I actually
enjoyed the ride minus the pain. The short length was mid thigh and I'm
5'4". I strongly recommended for beginners. I bought my first pair at a
local bike shop, I'm back to order another pair... I had no chafing and the leg
bands did not ride up during the ride.
I necessitated to buy a pair of cycling shorts which would
leave a tan line I could hide while wearing a dress. I like these shorts since
they are a little shorter and don't squeeze my legs. They tend to ride up a
little since they don't have rubber strips squeezing your thighs. They just
have little rubber dots instead that I discover much more comfortable. I buy
these shorts in white, and then bought them once more in black. I placed a
third order last night for some black ones with a cool design. They seem a
little tighter but I still ordered my normal size and they don't feel also small
by any means. The white shorts are HOT but beware if you have a black bike seat
which the black from your seat will rub off on your shorts! I although got a
new seat and which did not solve the trouble. I'm saving my white ones for my
next bike when I finally get a WHITE seat.
I absolutely enjoy these shorts. They are comfortable and
don't ride up. I had been using the spinning bike at the gym in regular clothes
and had to cut my workout short the last time bc I was also sore. Which no
longer the case. I highly recommend them.
