Are we talking hem (hips) or waist here? Oh well. Whatever. I prefer no elastic either place.

I hate elastic -- anywhere. I cannot stand anything tight on any part of my body. I'd wear sacks if I could!

Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

the one jersey that i have which is a mens i like having the elastic on it. keeps the cold wind out and the jersey down.
the jacket that i have isn't as long and doesn't have elastic on it. i get a cold breeze up my back all the time.
with the wind out here i like having the elastic, but if i was anywhere else or had a woman's jersey i don't know. i'd have to try it and see, but as of right now i like the elastic."Forget past mistakes.

I get a more aerodymic and snugger fit with no elastic. With elastic, I get a giant balloon of fabric around my middle. I remove the elastic and the jersey sits down on my hips properly.

Can't stand elastic! The first jersey my husband bought me had it in the waist and the hips. Yuck. I only buy Terry jerseys because they have nice styles with no elastic. I am thin, but my hips are a size bigger than my waist, which is small. The elastic at the bottom rides up to my waist! Then i get cold (or sunburned). I have a vest that has elastic and I am about to ditch it; it's a Pearl Izumi. The only time the elastic doesn't ride up is if the rest of the jersey is way too big on me.
