Shorts size help...

[aJohnson]

Hi, I'm thinking of getting some DHB earnley bib shorts, but I don't know which size I should choose. The question is, should I go for length or width? According to the size chart, I have the length of a Large but the width of a Small - XSmall.

I bought some DHB shorts and had to get XL, I am by no way a big bloke infact I would say fairly average 34 inch waist etc (ok maybe 36).

I'm 6'2" - I wear 34" inside leg, 32" waist in trews.

The "L" is snug on me in dhb stuff, the "XL" has to stretch a bit less, but still fits. Unless they've changed the sizing a lot since I bought my bib 3/4s, I'd say buy according to your height rather than waist size.

I'd say buy according to your height rather than waist size.

Agree, but for different reasons. If the shorts are too short its likely to be more of an issue than if the shorts are not as tightly stretched. Also, I'm a 32" waist and find the medium just right in DHB bibs.

Also need to decide whether to get small-medium arm warmers or medium - large...

I'm also skinny (5'8.5" with a 27" waist) and have found that these are good. I have the smalls though it's possible you'll want the mediums. The Revolution warmers I had before wouldn't stay on.
