edited December 2012 in MTB buying advice
Any size advice appreciated for 3/4 length shorts so as to avoid a lot of to and froing and time wasting. I'm 6ft tall, 36 inch waist, give or take.....mostly give...with a belt. I've heard they can be sized quite vaguely and liners or shell may not fit as I might expect. Also, any other suggestions for baggies in that price range. Sub £50.

    I've got the Endura Hummvee and Humvee Lite's. I'm 6'4" with a 35" to 36" waist and an XL fits me perfectly. There not the 3/4 length, just the normal baggies. But there the best baggies i've ever owned, and i've bought 30+ pair's of baggies in my time riding. Cant recommend more!

    I've got the Humvee's 3/4 length and i'm only a shortarse 5'5" with a 29" waist and i went for the small. The medium was a better fit around the waist but too baggy etc elsewhere but seeing as they are quite stretchy around the waist i plumped for the small. If i put on any weight i'll be screwed and will have to get the medium though :? Fantastic shorts and i've also been wearing them over the top of my cold weather lycra leggings :oops:

    really? i'm 5'10" and 32 inch waist and have the large, which still pop open from time to time and sit above the knee... mediums must look like 80's football shorts on you!
  • I'm 6' 1" and 33/34 inch waist - I use the large. Excellent shorts.
  • I went a size up - the liners, while very good are quite tight.

    5'10" with 36" waist and went for xxl but they're a bit too big.

    Really! The mediums seem to fit me just great actually - still some give in the elastic of the waistband!

    Just to round this out (literally), I'm a 40" waist and the XXL size fits me well.

    32" and medium for me too. That's in humvee, spray and singletrack.
  • I'm 5' 9" and 30" waist, I'd go for small. MDobs' must surely be too big!

    6'4, 34" waist, and all my Endura leg wear is XL and a snug fit.

    I do find their baggies just a little too flappy in the thigh but they are as tough as ..., though

    XL sounds about right for you.

    yep. I'm similar size (maybe a weensy bit more chunky round the waist) and xl is right.

    34" waist here and usually in a medium but had to go for a large.
  • Good advice. XL it is.
