Love the Look, the fit is just OK

I love the look of these shorts! Very different from what I see around, which is nice. I'm honestly not crazy about the fit, but I think that is probably a personal thing. I like my biking shorts to hang around my hips. These come up higher unless you get a size too big for you. I'm 5'6" and 115 lbs and got a size Small. They are pretty lose but do come up above my hips. I also went ahead and got a Medium to get more of the fit I like, but they are very big on me otherwise.

So just keep that in mind if you like a low rise short. Though most biking shorts don't seem to be low rise - strange.
