best shorts for distance

"Best" may be in the eye of the beholder and those with unlimited funds. But I've worn Pearl Izumi for years. I've used them on 25 mile time trials to 160 mile road races. Never once been uncomfortable, disappointed, or had a pair fail. I'm 6'1" #173 and large works great for me. Hope this helps.

Sharon B. I am a 42-44 inch waist and I weight 271 lbs. I ordered the Pearl Izumi shorts and they fit me pretty well! they are comfortable for long rides and I dont have any issues with them at all! The padded area really helps for the long rides.

Hi Anastacia. The shorts have a little give but they don't have to fit you snug to work. I suggest you order the large and work your way down to a small. You can do it!

Yes, they are all the same length. There is also a longer version that is 11". Great shorts, have bought many pair.

These are great bike shorts! FYI- I have 33 waist and ordered Large. Probably could do XL if I wanted to have a baggier fit but large is fine for my liking. I think I have 4 sets of these as they are the best baggy bike shorts I have found

I bought the Henderson Neosport scuba shorts in Small and found the fit to be true. A long sleeve rash guard, vest and these shorts are perfect for warm water diving. I will buy another pair of the shorts before my next dive trip.

they do dry quickly, they also tend to be hydraphobic so like spills will run off them, I find them breathable more so than other shorts, and here in the south they are certainly my go to wear

Most of the underarmour gear that you get especially these in particular should be around mid thigh to almost kneecap. that's how most spansex like that are, and or compression shorts.

These Asics shorts have a 5" inseam and the fit is on the hip and they do not feel to short to me.

HiLarge if you like it a little loose. Medium would be like compression shorts. I'm 34w and use xlarge

You will probably be okay with the small unless you are a bigger guy. I am a large stature runner with large thighs and gluted so I have to buy up one size in most brands of running shorts.

since they are close in price, I would go for the Brieftons. I am so pleased with mine.

Yes but the material used is long lasting; unlike some other brands where the Velcro hooks come unbent and the soft material becomes fluffy. Has not happened to these shorts. I have three pairs and they get used a lot!

They are pretty true to size. I would order a 33". They have a draw string to make them tighter. I purchased a 38" and have recently dropped one waist size to a 36", I'm still able to wear them and make them tighter. These shorts are really comfortable.

They are NOT see-through. I wear a waist length shirt for tennis and have no problems. I've purchased a lot of shorts trying to find a brand that fits my needs and these seem to cover all the bases for tennis (I only wish they had pockets!)
