    Can you describe the sizing a bit better than just the waist size on their website? Do they run large or small (size 2 to 4 can be so different between brands) Is there an elastic waistband? thanks! tokie

    The new model has a zip up at the cuff. Mine and OP's have the velcro strip.
    Advantage velcro it's reflective
    dissadvantage it can flap a little

    They are great pants, I have 2 pair. For many rides these remain my faves.

    Tokie,

    I'm not sure how to describe the fit. I believe it is pretty much just what one would expect from that size--neither large nor small. The black pair is the older model with the velcro at the bottom. It does have elastic at the back of the waist only. The grey pair is the newer model with zips at the bottom and it does not have any elastic in the waist. The legs on the black pair are also slightly longer (about 2-1/2" longer) and its side front pockets are zipped.

    Sue

    I think that it's absolutely necessary that I come to France to try them on
