    I don't have the tights but I have one pair of shorts and 2 jackets by Gore, and in my opinion they run true to size. Well, apart from the leg grippers being a tad tight on my not-especially hefty thighs. Or maybe they' ve gotten heftier than I thought

    I find Gore runs true to American sizing.

    I have their winter bibtights and the phantom jacket in XS. For reference, I wear Size XS in brands like Sugoi, Voler, Specialized, Giordana; Size S in Euro brands like Assos, Castelli, EO (tops).

    I agree with the others. I don't have any GORE bottoms, but I have three tops and a jacket and all of them fit me exactly as they should. As a reference, I'm a pear with a long torso, smallish chest and big arms (how's that image?!).

    Oh, and I'd also like to comment that I really like the quality of the GORE stuff I've bought and all of it has held up extremely well.

    uh oh

    I took a leap of faith and ordered the small because that's all they had... I'm keeping my fingers crossed - hopefully the tights would be tight only in the waist band, so bib shorts with no waist band will be okay!

    ....a girl can hope...
