Venture Bike Short Regular w. Liner

Love these shorts

These are the best fitting shorts I've ever purchased from Terry! I waited for the price to drop based on the reviews, so I bought two- one in each color - and it's a shame, because Terry deserves full price for these shorts! I am 5' 8-1/2" and weigh 136 pounds - tall and slender- and I wear a size medium, which fits perfectly. I did not have to tighten the cinches on the sides. I love the colors and the way they look on me. Even with the liner on, they fit perfectly.

Great shorts but waistband is not adjustable

I love the color (dark blue), quality and style of these bike shorts. Having read the reviews, I thought about sizing down, but I'm glad I didn't. My usual size (S) fits well, but the outer shorts are a bit loose in the waistband, which make them less comfortable to wear (especially without the liner shorts). I have the Metro shorts as well, and always wear them with a belt. The picture of the Venture short is a bit misleading: it looks like the waistband was adjustable (velcro fastener or buckle), but unfortunately it's only decorative (with an elastic band on the back). The "buckles" cannot be opened, so there is no possibility to replace the elastic band or use a belt. Please prioritize practicability in the design of future models of these shorts.

Didn’t work for me

I ordered a medium based on my measurements and these shorts seemed generously sized. Definitely too long for me and just big all around. I had to return them. I’m 5’5”, 120 lbs.
