It's been a long, frustrating search for the right pair of riding pants for me. I'm around 5'8", 148 pounds, with curves and muscle, so finding a pair of pants that my butt and thighs fit into comfortably was a bit of an issue. Either the pants fit too tight on my legs and butt and fit in the waist, or they were baggy as **** in the waist and fit my legs all right. These pants are juuust right. Great for canyon carving and general seat time.
They DO fit snugly, so do heed the advice of others. I went with the size recommended to me though (44), and I found that the pants fit snugly (comfortably so, though) on my legs and butt, without feeling like I'm crammed into the pants. (And, on a vain and/or comfort note, they don't smash your booty flat - a plus, I'd say). They do stretch a bit after riding them a couple hundred miles, and start to feel like a second set of thicker, warmer skin. They've kept me warm at 55 degrees easily, and I'm sure they would work in cooler weather as well; they're also comfortable with the liner out at around 80 degrees.
I can see these pants working for both thin and curvy women - I'm grateful that Rev'it! has produced a very functional pant with great features without sacrificing comfort and style.
