This is exactly one of the reasons why I haven't tried them. My torso is longer than most women but larger sizes usually mean larger chamois (a problem I've had with regular shorts) and that won't work for me either.

Most of the guys I ride with love them because they don't fall down (most guys have no hips) and because they don't bind at the waist. 1) I have huge hips (and butt) so there is no way my shorts would EVER fall down and 2) most of my bike shorts are already too big in the waist (again, big butt and legs) so the binding at the waist has never been an issue for me.

One of these days I'd like to try them just for the experience...but they are so expensive that it's not likely to be anytime soon!
