    Wow, thank you, that is actually the perfect short. Internal waist adjustment too, so I can make the waist a bit smaller. I have odd sizes as my shirts etc take an m, and I have long legs, but my waist is like 28"! Thanks again, I'll get these

    The XS in Royal's sizing is 28" to 30". I'm 29", and just got a pair of their Turbulence shorts in XS, I reckon you'd be ok with the waist adjusters pulled in a bit. Free returns anyway, so doesn't cost owt to send 'em back if they don't fit.

    Only large sizes on those, unfortunately. Your link's now made me want a new jersey though. Argh.

    I'm 5 foot 10, with 34" inside leg. On me the Turbulence shorts come to the centre of my kneecap, but are wide enough at the bottom to not snag on my knee pads (like my Humvee 3/4s do). The inside leg from crotch to hem is 350mm on mine.

    No worries. I'd just order 'em whike they still have them - if they don't fit it costs nothing to return them, and from the few items I've bought, Royal's quallity seems very good.
