I'm short-waisted with a waist that's significantly narrower than my hips. While the cut has something to do with it, elastic tends to ride up. I can't wear men's jerseys without that happening. I've had slightly better luck with elastic-hemmed women's jerseys, but I haven't road-tested either of my elastic-waisted ones. (They don't migrate to my waist when I touch my toes, but we shall see.) I just got the Filigree Wheels jersey. I can't decide if I'm going to exchange it or relieve it of its elastic.

I know it is just the width of my screen, but I see this thread title as:

Each day is a gift, that's why it is called the present.
