    You bet! They do still run a little small, though, so if you're sort of between sizes I'd go up. I'm a generous M, so the larges fit me well.

    My Sugoi shorts give a bit of a sausage-leg effect (as well as highlighting the fat at the top of my inner thigh) though it's not as bad as it used to be. My Castelli shorts don't, because they don't have grippers as such (just bias-cut fabric around the bottom of the leg) and because the leg opening is slightly too big for me, though it's not an issue on the bike. I wear the Sugoi shorts because I like the chamois and fabric better, and because the Castellis don't wear well.
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    OK, so I went to check those out and immediately realized that I watched Susan try those on in the spring. I don't remember noticing sausage leg on her at all, but I do remember that they were VERY low cut at the waist. Did you find that to be the case, Kirsten? That's why I never bothered to try them on and why I'd kind of blocked them out of my mind when shopping. I have a long torso and really despise super low rise biking/tri shorts.

    They are pretty low...but I despise the high-waisted stuff, since it always makes me feel like I'm wearing mom jeans and tends to roll down in the front when I am on the bike.
