I thinking of treating my botty to a pair of these with some Xmas money, suppose to be the mutts nuts , but can't decide on the sizing as it suggests for my height I'm a size large........I find it hard to believe I'll be a large I'm skinny and small in every other brands...will be buying online so not able to try on, just wondering if the size guide from assos based on height only is accurate?

Cheers and merry Xmas yall

I am 6' with a 32" waist and wear Large Assos shorts, the stuff is euro sized ie small. If it helps i also wear large Castelli shorts.

I have an old set of campinisimo evos in Medium, they fit but i find them a little short in the body, which is something to consider with bibs.

I find Assos to be about a size smaller than Gore, Endura and Pearl Izumi, if that helps.
So, at 6ft 1 with 34 waist, 42 chest I'm a large for most other kit, and XL for Assos

Hmmmm cheers still can't see me being a large i don't have big thighs, I'd guess and say the legs would be quite baggy on me in large......hmmmm wonder why they base their size on height only for bibshorts

Its less waist size and more height!

I am a medium in Endura yet is Castelli and Assos i require XL. Otherwise the bibs don't reach my shoulders.

I have never seen a set of loose Assos shorts.

Think italian sizing!!

5"10 and 34 waist. Wear a large comfortably. As above you could go smaller but the length of the bib and length of the legs could end up being too small for you.
