I've been trying to find this out by searching, but I'm not having a ton of luck. Perhaps because I'm *that* unusual?

I have a small body with large arms and legs (actually, I have a long body with short arms and legs...but the end result is small body girth and large appendage girth ). Any suggestions for shorts brands that might work? I wear a small in my PI's so that the chamois stays put over long rides, but the leg bands are quite uncomfortable....even the longer styles. I know there are lots of 'pear' shaped ladies, which I always thought I was...but I don't have big hips or wide sit-bones...just big legs. Grrr..

I've tried Terry - but the styles are all too big in the body/waist. I've tried Shebeest, and the sprint shorts are ok...but mostly because they are quite stretchy. The chamois is too thin for much over 30 miles, though. I haven't tried the SSS yet, but I'm not sure they will be my best option.

When it comes to jerseys, I have to go up to mediums to fit my arms, and the bodies are always way too big. On shorts, I was trying to do the same thing but quickly learned that it won't work.

Any ideas for this MaryLou Retton knock-off?

Thanks!
