    I did buy the x smalls. I wondered about that, but I would rather have to pull them a little over my hips than have them too big. I thought that the chamois in the smalls would be too big and you know what that does...

    Thanks...I'll keep that in mind in case I order some! I have bike shorts from XS to M, so I am never quite sure which size to get. The mediums are Performance Ultras from a few years back, and I definitely could have gotten a small...the chamois is not too large, but I do have some puckering on the back seams. Still, they ran really small. The XS are PIs, and the Smalls are Terry. Sizing...what a pain!

    I ordered another pair of the S Pros, as I had to throw out my Ultra Ds after getting a saddle sore for the third time after wearing them. The chamois is just too padded. When I put the new pair of S Pros on, I swear, they come up a little higher than my first pair! Not a huge difference, but they feel a bit bigger overall. Very strange.
    Emily, I wear x smalls in Terry, but we might just be shaped differently, even though we are about the same size.

    Very true, and I also think there may have been some "size creep" over the years. My Small Terrys are about four years old, so I would probably order an XS today as they are certainly not my smallest shorts that I feel comfortable in.
