The Breakaway Hi-Rise Bike Short offers a higher rise and wider waistband for extended torso coverage. It features a more compressive fabric, providing a tighter fit. Customers appreciate the supportive yet comfortable fabric and the ideal chamois, though opinions on the fit vary.

"Very comfortable fit. I like the high waist! Fabric is good. Haven’t had an opportunity to try them out on a long ride yet but looking forward to wearing them for that. It would be nice if they had a pocket in the back or on the leg."
"Comfortable & great fit right out of the box! The pad is perfect! Enough seat padding but not over flowing into the inner thigh. I love the high rise waist! I am 5’5” and 137 lbs. I ordered a medium."
"This short has a very high waist. This is perfect for covering my large tummy. I do not need to deal with the rolling rolling on down to my bikini line while riding. One star off since the fabric feels pretty flimsy and not that supportive. It is stretchy though."
"I purchased this for the RAGBRAI ride across Iowa. While it fit when I tried it on at home, after a few hours of riding it was way too big everywhere. This is my first disappointment in a Terry product - and an expensive one."
"Comfortable, flattering, light weight for warm weather riding. Ordered one size up from my normal and they fit perfect."
"I've been wearing the Breakaway shorts for a few years now. I love the fit and durability."
"Thanks Terry, I really liked the first pair of shorts so I decided to by a second pair."
"My new favorite biking shorts! I love the length at my waist! They were also comfortable for my 20 mile ride."
"I can count on Terry to have comfortable bike shorts! When it is hot weather, I love not having rubber or plastic touching my legs just above my knees. The high rise is very flattering smoothing out the waist line. I also like the chamois paddling rather than gel. I hope they have the same durability as the ones I've worn in the past. Thanks for giving me a comfortable ride!"
"The fabric is nice, they're not very compressive. Good for casual ride. Chamois is thin but comfortable, no extra padding! The only downside for me is the waist rolls down. Not great for curvy bodies and Tri bikes, at least not for me."
