    Assos shorts

    I'm looking to purchase the Assos H FI Lady S5 Shorts, and my measurements are right in between those for size small and medium. Anyone have these shorts that can offer advice? For what it's worth, I wear small in Pearl Izumi and medium in Terry.

    Well I don't have those shorts, but I've got to chime in because that's just weird. I take a Medium in PI and a Small in Terry.

    That IS weird. I wear mostly Pearls, and they're all size small. The Terry Bellas (which I hate, BTW) are mediums...I tried smalls and could barely get them on!

    I have Assoss bibs in size small. Compared with my PI bibs (also size small), the Assoss are a closer fit. Might be due to the fabric, though, than strictly fit. I prefer the Assoss but they are too expensive to own in bulk.

    If it helps, my hip measurement is 37.5 inches (which I think puts me right between their S and M sizes in the chart). I got a pair in size S and they fit me wonderfully. That said, is there a place you could try them on to be sure of the fit, or can you return them if you're buying online? It's a pricey pair of shorts so probably only worth it if you love the fit.
