I am 5 ft. tall and wear a size 10 jeans. I have a pair of M biking shorts...is M too big for me in these tights?

I think M will be fine because I wear size 4-6 jeans but I am 5'9" and Med are perfect. These are my favorite riding pants!

The medium I ordered was a good fit with plenty of room for adjustment, expand or contract. I have biker thighs. A small size would probably work

You will probably be okay with the small unless you are a bigger guy. I am a large stature runner with large thighs and gluted so I have to buy up one size in most brands of running shorts.

i'm 5'4 and i bought a extra small and it's a tiny bit too long. i don't think you'll have to worry about them being too tight either because they are still baggy on me and i'm usually a 5/6 as well. i usually would buy a medium or maybe even a small sometimes. I think a medium might be a tad too big. But i don't want to give you bad advice either.

I wear med which is same size as my other running tights/capri. Only caution is that my friend who is 5'8" wears the tights and it is short on her. Capris might be knickers on you.

I'm 5'9" with a 42 waist and they fit me fine. They are a little stretchy, so I think you'll be alright.

I am 5'5" and the small is fine for me. They are a maybe a little short but at 112 I did not want baggy tights. If you are a big build at 5'7" I would guess lg might work for you but if you are a slimmer build perhaps medium is the way to go??

I (33 waist 6'3) actually have a large pair and they fit well without tying the string, even after months of regular use. Medium should be fine unless you want them to be noticeably tight.

I am 5'4", 125lbs, and wear a 5 in most jeans/pants. I like my pants tight.I purchased a small thinking these pants would fit me a little loose to allow me to wear my yoga pants or running shorts/capris underneath. Small was way too BIG! I ended up having them hemmed about 1.5" at the bottom and had the inner seam and croch hemmed about .75" !! Before having them adjusted you could visibly see that they were swallowing me. I would say no to M and get a SM. Hope this helps!!

A medium may be tight in the shoulders. I'm 5'10", 160 lbs, 31 waist, 30 inseam, and a medium is perfect on me. Snug on the quads, but I have above average quads and like a snug fit. Fit me ideal in the shoulders, but would probably be stretched out on your longer frame.

I believe you will be fine. I don't think they are as compressive as cycling shorts, but they are on that order. By the way there isn't a lot of padding so the look is more natural and flattering.

I'm 5'7" with an inseam of 30", these tights hit just above my ankle. I would guess it would depend on where you want them to hit and your inseam length.Love these tights. I play racquetball in them and they never slip or bag.

I don't think you will have a problem with length. But I wold go up one size from what you usually wear for waist room. They are snug to get on for sure!

I would definitely say yes, maybe even an XL. These run VERY tight. One of the sales ladies at a local specialty running store calls them her "sausage tights". I'm 5'8 about 170 and went up to a L myself. Hope this helps!

Hi Martha, I'm about 5'-10" and 180lbs (many of those lbs are in my tummy area, unfortunatley) and I went with the Medium and they fit perfectly, so I would venture that a size SM would do the trick - you do want them tight if they're going to be worn as a base layer.

I use them for both mountain and road biking--they are not very baggy hence fairly aerodynamic for mountain bike shorts. I am still confused that some people think that they are undersized; I am 5 ft, 7 in tall and weigh 155 lb, wear a 32 in inch pant, and the smalls fit just fine.

Should not be a problem. They are made with cycling in mind, so the legs are form fitting and the ankle opening is narrower. The best way to describe the fit is like a pair of skinny jeans as opposed to straight-leg jeans; they get narrower down by the ankles. I lift weights and have relatively muscular legs for my height. I have no problem with the fit around my calves. I have these pants in a large, have 15.5" calves, and these fit great.
