Reviewed by Anna K from Lansing, MI on Friday, July 20, 2012After a few pairs of tri shorts, these were the least gross-fitting of the lot. I don't know any woman besides professional triathletes that don't despise the elastic leg grippers, and these have those, but they are covered in smooth fabric, making them better than the exposed elastic many shorts have. The pad is fleece and very soft, but very light, making these best for shorter distance tri's and road biking. The material the shorts are made of is very thin, to the point that I had to double check it wouldn't be see-through when wet (it's not) but I felt slightly exposed in them- this also lends them to drying very fast even while you're wearing them, so it's a blessing and a curse I suppose. I do love the color.

- Cons: Leg grippers, Thin Fabric
- Describe Yourself: Avid Athlete

- Pros: Allows Free Movement, Breathable, Comfortable, Dries Quickly, Lightweight

Reviewed by yoganut from Wisconsin on Tuesday, December 06, 2011I bought these for active yoga wear and they are just perfect....fit, don't sag, don't bind and they breathe. I'm hoping I can buy more. Sierra had these listed as XL/size 10. I am and will always be a solid 14. I bought them on a whim. They definitely fit me perfectly so if you are a 10, you'd need to buy smaller.

Reviewed by Tri Girl from Rochester, NY on Sunday, January 02, 2011Haven't used the shorts yet but I plan on using them for upcoming tri's this year. They fit great and the sizing is wrong on Sierra Trading Post...go to the Orca website for correct sizing info. I did this before ordering from Sierra, so I got the right size that fits.

Reviewed by Mountain Momma from Portland ME on Tuesday, December 28, 2010I love the purple color of these biking shorts, matches my bike! Seriously they fit perfect, although I first got the medium and sent them back for a small...I read the comments and went by what they said, should have stuck with my regular size, I think they are true to size. I probably will not wear them in the water. As I said above, with the chamois was thicker.
