1.0 out of 5 stars. No leg GripsVerified Buyer Reviewed by Mt biker from VT on Friday, October 21, 2016Comfortable waist. Short legs. Not great for biking. No leg grips so they ride up and pinch when riding.

2.0 out of 5 stars. Runs very smallVerified Buyer Reviewed by H.B.K. from CT on Sunday, May 15, 2016Great looking shorts, but about a size (or two) smaller. I ordered the 4 and it was like a 0 or a 2.

3.0 out of 5 stars. Size problemsVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from Wisconsin on Tuesday, March 22, 2016I have quite a few (about 6) pairs of Pearl Izumi bike shorts and I always wear a medium. Got a medium and they were too tight. Sent them back and ordered a large. They seem a little big, but kept them anyway. I have only wore them once on the trainer and they were ok, but when really leaning over for a long time the waistband tends to curl up. Waistband looks great but not functional for my body type. I like the pad and I am short so the 8 in inseam is great. So, I probably would not buy these again as I don't like the fit and the waist band curls up after a couple of hours of sweaty riding.

2.0 out of 5 stars. Well made, poor fitReviewed by Jules from St louis, Mo on Saturday, December 19, 2015I ordered the size small, and just trying to get these on was almost an exercise in itself. A bit tight for my taste, I could probably get away with using these, but I felt a little bit like a sausage in them. 5'3" 110, athletic build,

1.0 out of 5 stars. The shortsVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from California on Tuesday, November 10, 2015After about 20 years with the same cycling shorts, I decided to finally replace the thread bare pairs I own. I had received a pair of PI Elite In-R-Cool as a gift and loved them. So I thought that these would be similar and with color at a better price. However, the fabric couldn't be more different. Lightweight and bunchy. I always take a Medium in PI shorts and my other Elite shorts are perfect. These were way too big and they did not fit or feel the same. I had to sadly return them.

3.0 out of 5 stars. sausageReviewed by Peaches from Colorado on Friday, September 18, 2015stitching is a bit strange and does create a bit of fat compression, not bad though. the fabric is a little stiffer than many other spandex type shorts. Padding good. I wouldn't buy them again due to the fabric.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Great PaddingVerified Buyer Reviewed by Awsmile from Pennsylvania on Saturday, September 5, 2015I was looking for an all-day cycling short and these are perfect. They are shorter than some and run a little smaller - I am a size 10 and usually wear a large in cycling clothes, but needed to exchange the large for medium in these. I bought both these and another PI from Sierra that had the elite chamois and was much more expensive, but these pad just as well as the other. I think I'm a convert now to PI bottoms.

5.0 out of 5 stars. great cushioningVerified Buyer Reviewed by Awsmile from Pennsylvania on Monday, August 31, 2015I was looking for a short that cushioned well on beyond 30 miles, and these worked. I am a size 10 but usually order a large in cycling bottoms and tops. However, the large was too big and I exchanged for a medium. They are perfect.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Good shortsVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from California on Wednesday, August 26, 2015I've used these shorts once on a ride and they were great. Comfy padding and overall comfortable. The only down side is the waistband. I like the padding of these shorts but would like them better if they didn't have the v-style waistband but something more similar to the pearl izumi ultra star shorts. However the padding is more comfortable for long rides than the ultra star short.
