"These shorts are extremely comfortable, but I ordered a size larger based on the reviews. My short is a size too large and is a bit baggy; I prefer a tight cycling short."

The Rebel Bike Short is designed for summer riding with a lightweight, breathable French performance fabric. It offers moderate compression for a flattering fit and includes perforated leg panels and a vertical mesh panel for breathability. The chamois is Terry's lightest weight with soft wings for comfort. However, some customers have reported sizing issues and discomfort in the leg area.

"This summer has been unusually hot in many places. So, I wanted to get a light road cycling short. This is a lovely short in all respects, but the sizing is really off. I am usually a small in cycling bottoms, and a small in Terry cycling bottoms. Occasionally, I have been a medium. So, I ordered the small but just in case also ordered the medium . Shorts arrived. I couldn't even get the small past my thigh. It was ridiculously small. Put the medium on, and that one fit nicely. You really need to size up one size for this short. I gave it 4 stars only because of the size issue. I am glad I ordered the medium when I ordered the small, cause they are now out of mediums. I would have bought another one, but can't unless they get more of them."
"So far so good, they are light weight, have great ventilation. I bought these with the breakaway shorts, these have more compression but not uncomfortable. Has a light chamois that would allow me to use these during a triathlon on a hot day."
"I always wear size L bike shorts, this style was too small. I returned them. The bike light had no instructions I returned that also."
"These are the best bike shorts for hot weather. Having perforations on the quads prevents heat rash. The material stays in place and is not too tight. The chamois is perfect."
"These shorts are the perfect ones for summer riding! Lightweight, comfortable, moderately compressive, with no leg grippers (woo hoo!) and the perfect rise. Love them!"
"This short and chamois fit me perfectly. I am athletic build, 5'6", small buns. I can't get comfortable in a short with a thick chamois."
"The only bike shorts I want to wear this summer. I got them in medium - my usual size - and fit is nice."
"Legs too tight & uncomfortable. Too high rise for my body"
"I am a big fan of the Rebel Short. I recently lost weight so i had to get a smaller size! I got them on sale which was an added bonus. This is my favorite Terry short. I am 5' tall so this works great for someone with short legs!"
