I've also seen where the inseam measurement only applies to the size Medium...so if your shorts are bigger or smaller, the inseam might change, too.

You might ask Susan at TE to measure a few pair and report.

I got an answer.
I emailed TE regarding the measurement problems I was having. They were very nice and responded very quickly.
I was told that the measurements are done on a medium size pair of shorts. And they are measured from the center seam, unstretched. She also told me if you purchase a short that is larger than a medium, chances are, because it is a larger size it will be 1 to 2 inches longer than the posted measurement.
So the mystery is solved. Thanks for everyone's help.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a woman in possession of a bicycle, must be in want of another one.
My current love is a Kuota Kebel. Maybe I need a Kuota Kalibur so I can be more aerodynamic...
My poor husband....

Getting old is better than the alternative!
