The short answer is that it depends on the brand.

Shebeest DOES size their chamois. One size in the XS & S, another in the M, L & XL (I'm 99% certain that's right, although the M might have the smaller size, not the larger...) But just about everyone else uses pretty much one size in all their shorts.

We find this is a particular problem for some XS & S size women. For women who really dislike longer chamois (because they come up too far in the front & back) I usually recommend Sugoi shorts. Sugoi's chamois are shorter front to back than just about all our brands AND they're nicely shaped. A lot of the women here in the office are big SUgoi fans, especially the RS Flex shorts and the Evolutions.

Terry is now using the same chamois as Shebeest in some of their T-shorts (Terry calls it the "Flex" chamois, SHhbeest the "Shelastic"), now that Shebeest's exclusivity on that chamois has expired. But I don't know if Terry is using both size of chamois, or just one. I could look into it if anyone is interested.
