Fit on Shebeest S-Pro shorts?

[sgf726]

me too - my favorite shorts. I have two pairs and just bought a pair of shebeest tri-shorts.

I wear small in both the Pearl Izumi and Shebeest shorts.

I like the Shebeest shorts too. I find the fit is similar to the PI shorts, maybe a little more roomy - but it might just be the waistbands on the SB shorts are so much more comfortable.

My favorite shorts overall though are the Castelli ones. And then probably the Louis Garneau shorts. Really really like those two companies' shorts.

I like the specs on the Neo Power shorts, but I can't do that insanely long inseam. I have short legs, so anything longer than 8" looks (and feels) ridiculous on me.

Haven't tried that style, but I'm a medium in one of my Shebeest shorts and an XS in the other. I don't find them to be any more or less consistent in sizing than any other company.

Ha, sounds like PI! I wear everything from S to L in their stuff.

I have 2 pairs of Shebeest SSS shorts (not the S Pro) and while I'm not "in love" with them, I like them just fine. The inseam is a smidge too short for my liking, but I can live with it. And for some reason, the silicone gripper causes that goofy red, non-itchy bump syndrome afterwards, but it's not enough to stop me from wearing them. Both pairs are a Large, as compared to the Medium I wear in most of my PI shorts.

I had a pair of the SSS shorts years ago in a med....part of why I ended up selling them is that I really needed a L. So I wonder how the sizing of the SSS and the S-Pro might compare...?

Read some good reviews on here the other day about some LG's in a different style with shorter inseam. Same chamois. Can't remember which ones, but shouldn't be that hard to figure out. They seemed quite popular.

I think you might be referring to the LG Zone 3K shorts. Same AirZone chamios as the Neo, but in a 5.5 inseam. Those would look like "hot pants" on me...and not in a good way, either.

Yeah...so they are marketing to the extreme ends of the spectrum, but not to those of us who like shorts with a relatively common inseam. They are missing a HUGE market, IMO. 7-8" and I'd have already bought a pair.

The LG Zone 3K are shorter than my 7-8" inseam shorts, but seemed longer than 5 1/2 " on my long legs. The material is very stretch but seems to stay put. I had the advantage of trying on before purchasing, or I would have never considered mail ordering that length of short.

Will be available in a version 3 inches shorter in January. Maybe even a little earlier. Also, to be available in the longer version with a bib.

Oh, that is awesome! Just in time to treat myself before training starts in earnest for the next bike season!

YESSSSS!!!! Just what I've been waiting for!!!

And hopefully the bib will be awesome. I test rode a prototype, then sent them back a whole list of changes we wanted to see. (And, actually, I told them we couldn't buy it the way it was because of a couple of things we saw as critical flaws.) They made changes and sent me out a 2nd prototype, which is probably waiting for me at the office now (I've been out for 3 weeks, 1st day back tomorrow.) I'm stoked to try the newer version!
