Desoto 400 mile shorts any ladies wearing the mens
Quote | Reply
After hearing so much about the Desoto 400 mile shorts I'm looking to pick up a pair. Unfortunately there are no shops close by that carry the Desoto line so I will have to order them online without trying them on first. I came across a site that had the men's pair on sale and wondered if anyone has tried the mens sizes and how they fit vs the womens. Appreciate any feedback. Thanks. Cheers.

Yep, I have a pair of men's 400mi bib shorts, size sm. I LOVE these shorts. Had them ~3 seasons now and have logged a silly amount of miles on them. I normally wear M to L deSoto trishorts, if that helps.

The mens pad is significantly larger than the womens pad. DH has the mens and I have the womens and you'd be surprised at the difference in size. The mens is also a different shape.

DeSoto just revised their sizing chart to be more accurate, so I think if you measure yourself and buy the size indicated by your measurements, you should be fine ordering online. And, if not, I think they have a pretty good money-back guarantee.

Yep the pad is quite different between pad in men and women. I just ordered the men in 400 short and Forza but haven't ridden with them yet. Not sure how the pad will work out.
