I bought these shorts from the TE clearance at the beginning of the year but for some reason failed to try them on before now. They are way too small for me. Tried on with underwear - never used. Perfectly new.
Asking $25 plus cost of shipping.

May I ask what size pants you normally wear? (The Tyr size chart doesn't mention hip size, just waist...weird)

I'm a size 10. These were definitely smaller than expected. my last shorts from Tyr were a medium so that is why I bought that size. They would probably fit an 8, I'm guessing.

Sizing varies among different manufacturers.
I recently bought a skirt that was labeled as a size 8.
SIZE 8!
I haven't worn a real size 8 in 15 years.

So, do they fit a REAL size 8 or an "ego" size 8?

Indeed, I have a couple of pair of size 6 pants. But I don't see myself as a size 6. Unless I need to feel good. More like a average size 8 or small size 10. :p I sure as heck can't wear a size 6 dress, those are always too small.

Well, that's good to know. I need to order some, and I'd guess I need an XL since I'm a 12.

You are definitely right - sizes vary with different cuts, styles etc. There is no way for me to know exactly. I just wear a 10 in the styles I buy. No ego sizing here. So my best guess is the shorts would fit a non-ego sized 8.

Bump.
The shorts are still available.
