I am 5'8" 140lbs, the sizing chart says that I should be a small. However, a lot of reviewers say to order a size up. Not sure what to do.

I am 6' 200lbs - I wear a large and I am pleased with the fit. I would think a med may be a bit too big.

I am 5'8", 135 lbs. 29" waist -(which might be most important)- I got a small and it was very comfortable. Not tight, but it did 'fit'. It worked well, 7-day bike trip in Costa Rica.

There are reviewers here who wear a 32 or 31 who say M fits well. Or, if you wear a 30, S or M should fit. Depends if you want snug or roomy, or if you are growing, or shrinking, or buy both?

well this is Linda and I am 5'5 and weigh 120lbs and wear a size x small in tops and size 2 in most jeans in womens and I bought a large and it fits perfect. I was afraid it would be too big but it runs small. So with your size I would think and xsmall who fit good. I have 5 inches on you and 17 more lbs so I think you might want to try a small. The large looks like a small to me. I was surprised when I saw how small it looked. I might be confusing you but I would think xsmall would work but if you wash it as I did and I put it in the dryer by mistake it shrunk. so go with the small and if it is too big wash and dry it.

Well, I'm 5'8" and 140 pounds with thin legs and I wear the medium. It sounds like the XS might fit best for you if you have skinny legs.

I ordered a 4 wich is also listed as a medium(31-37) which fit perfectly. I'm 5'8 150lbs. Next size up is 38-42 waist size hope that helps

hi! I weighed 140LB during my 7th month ( when my back started hurting really bad) and I ordered a size medium and it was a little big but I could adjust it as needed. Medium seems like it would fit anyone from 140-170lb.

I am certainly no expert on sizing but I can tell you I'm 6' tall and weigh almost 200 lbs and an XL fits me well. Its snug but not tight. I suggest if you try what size you wear as a shirt it probably will be about right.

Hi Juan...I ordered a large for a man in my life. He is about 5'9...185 lbs. He wears this over his clothes and a light hoodie jacket if need be. I hope this helps somewhat.

I am 5'8 160lbs...I wear the Medium and find that if fits right..the large would have been to loose not enough compression. it tucks to the below the waist and close to the crotch.

I would go with the small. My son is 5'9" 150 lbs. & I ordered him the large & it fits fine.

I would order a small. I am a 4 and bought a medium. It works though. I take the extra length and loop it down and let it hang. I guess it depends on how u plan to wear

I m approx 5'7" and weigh around 130 which also fell into the 'grey area' of the size chart. I ordered up to a medium and ended up with a great fit.

I ordered a small and it fits fine. 5'6", 144lbs. I also have fuller hips and rear. Hope that helps.

I'd say get a small. I'm 5'10 and 220 and a large fit me just fine. I'd think a medium would be way too big for you.

The only way to be sure is to go to pearl izumi's website, look up this short specifically, then view the size chart and ask the women in question to find what their size is. I do rate this short as absolutely true to size. I'm 5'9'' 120lbs and the size "small" fits me perfectly.

I'm 5'8 190 #'s I went with a medium. If you need it skin tight, try a small. The medium will have a little play.

I'm a Small/Xtra-Small (between sizes 3-5) in most clothing sizes. I bought this in a medium and it fits, so I recommend going up a size.

I wear an 8 and the Small is perfect. I see others suggest Medium! You may just have to try one.
