As usual my shorts were a great fit and pattern. I always get compliments on how they fit and look.

I like the shorts but they ran way too small on me. I passed them on to a very slender friend and they were too small on her too. I wonder if they were a mis size? I am a solid 4 in most shorts (Patagonia bike shorts, Majola, Pearl and others)

I have the Freyah pants in size 8, and they fit perfectly so I ordered the same size in these shorts. They are just a tad too small. It seems most people are saying they are true to size, but I would suggest ordering up a size.

I can't believe how comfortable this short is. I forgot all about it the first time I wore it, which is saying a lot for new bike shorts. The size does not run small at all, and the stretch makes for a very comfortable fit and ride. I ordered a size 12 and it is not at all tight. I measure at a 10 or 12 but sometimes order 14 when I want my clothes to be roomy or want a lot of room for movement, and I have plenty of room in the size 12.

I always loved the look of Wild Rye clothing but didn't buy any until the sale. No returns so I was really hoping for the best with sizing...and there wasn't time to try to contact the company with fit questions. Based on some of the existing reviews, I got a size 6 though I normally wear a 4. My waist measures about 28, hips about 36. The shorts fit how I prefer overall (not skin tight) but are loose around the waist...probably an inch too big (despite being a size 6 based on size chart). Waist adjustment would be nice for those or us who like a looser fit overall but still want to feel like the shorts are snug around the waist. I would say these probably run true to size compared to other clothing, but run large if going off the size chart (at least as far as waist measurement goes). I will use still use them (esp with a chamois underneath), but wish the waist fit better.
