I really wish that I
"I really wish that I had liked these shorts. I've been trying to find my new favs, but these weren't them. The material seemed durable, and the construction solid. I'm normally an XL in bike shorts (size 14), but since many reviewers suggested sizing up, I went with the XXL. While it fit ok in the butt, it was too long and too high in the waist for my 5'3" frame. While I could have exchanged for an XL, I think it still would have been too long for my short self. These shorts would be much better for a taller woman."
