Anyone know the smallest size Sugoi does and where I can get them from?

Wiggle, PBK (very little women's clothing), Team Estrogen ($$ but good range of stock). c r c has a good range of women's, but don't think they have Sugoi.Welsh Dragon wrote:Anyone know where I can get Sugoi online? I tried xs on the other day but felt they were a bit too big!

Thanks. Wiggle didn't have my size. Can't believe how hard it is to find small sizing!grasshopper wrote:Wiggle, PBK (very little women's clothing), Team Estrogen ($$ but good range of stock). c r c has a good range of women's, but don't think they have Sugoi.Welsh Dragon wrote:Anyone know where I can get Sugoi online?

Santini run a bit smaller so and XS in their knicks might fit you better; be prepared for the shorter leg length with Santini though
PI's are ok, but I wouldn't buy them again

If you dont mind spending the money, Pearl Izumi is pretty much the best IMHO, but their sizing is not the smallest, so might pay to try on - but quality will never be a problem, especially with elite/pro series.
Santini make a very good quality bib short and the sizing is about 1 smaller than PI, so suit a smaller person - also they make bib-shorts with a gel pad in the posterior which is arguably more comfortable than the run of the mill chamois.
Cannibal is another brand with smaller sizing, and often make gear for bike shops and local teams etc but not quite up there with the other 2 mentioned.

I have a pair of Skins compression bib nicks that are proper cycle shorts with a decent pad in them. I've worn them on lots of longer rides and they do the job.curiost wrote:Can anyone advise whether 2XU or Skins cycle shorts are proper cycle shorts or is it just a marketing gimmick? They look like a really good option though, just wondering if they have they same amount of padding and moveability etc. Thanks
