Trying shorts

[netskyblue]

I'm not looking to wear them and then return them, just try them on. Preferably without spending a ton on shipping to me, and back, if they don't fit right. I can usually tell from looking if a pair is going to be too short, or if the band around the bottom looks like it will squeeze too tight. But I never know how a particular chamois is going to feel before I try on, and sometimes they just don't cover the right spots, or sometimes there's unexpected sausage leg. I've even seen some in person that I didn't have to try on, the fabric just *felt* weird - almost fuzzy, not a slick spandex type fabric.

I don't want to take advantage of a business by any means, but if they can provide me with the opportunity to find the right pair of shorts without unnecessary headaches in the return process, I'm going to become a loyal customer.

Team Estrogen - narrower selection than they used to have (*sniff), but still have Shebeest (which is my favorite) - reasonable shipping, good service, and reasonable return policies
REI - Selection can vary widely (they do sometimes have Shebeest and other brands I like), but shipping is usually free and can be returned to a store; generous return policy
Terry - love or return it guarantee; shipping sometimes free if you sign up for their emails.
