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?

I'm 5'9 and 154lbs the medium is perfect, meaning if I was a bit taller or heavier it would be too tight..I think you should go for a bigger size, just take in mind that the suit should be tight, otherwise you'll get cold washes more often.

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.

Wow, it's been a while since I bought for my son. Now he is 16. I can't remember if there was a size chart, but if you're 4'10 I'm guessing maybe medium. I'd try and contact seller and check. If anything buy medium and if too big/small you can exchange. Best to check with seller. Wish I could pin point it better for you.

I am 5'4" and 115lb and wear a medium, but I like to size up in compression wear. I think a medium would fit you well.

No sizing chart that I know of, however, just like the other answers, it is very stretchy and even fits me. It will fit you.

I'm 5'9", 200, and went for a Large. It's snug but has worked really well for the last couple of years for me. My wife is 5'9" and 140. She has a S and it fits her well.

Their size guide would suggest a medium. Depends on your build and comfort. I'm 5'4" & 140lbs, got a medium. They're very tight, I use them for heavy lifting sessions.

I am 5 ft. eleven inches (170 lbs.) and got a large, which fits me perfectly. It's a hard one to call as to whether you would need a Medium, or a Small. I think that they run a bit small because mine is quite snug but is what I want for biking; so, my guess would be a Medium. Hope this helps.

Size Medium should be good. My Wife is 140 Pounds, and 5' 3" Tall and Medium was a little big on her.

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.

My son is 130 lbs and 5'9" and his "small" fit him perfectly. My husband is about your size and for him I would definitely buy the large. By the way, this is a GREAT product! You won't be sorry. Helps so much!

I'm 5'4 and weigh about 120 lbs. I purchased the medium. The small would not have fit me based on how the medium fits.

I'm 5'9 135lbs and I got a small. Above my knee cap measures 14.5 and below is 12.75 -if you measure 15 or above I'd get medium.

By using the chart that was provided I ordered a XL. I then received a e-mail from the seller asking my weight and height. I responded with "My height is 5ft 11.5 inches weight 175 lbs". They sent this back to me the next morning. "Thanks for your quick respond,we do think size XL will be a little short for you,size XXL will be ok". They were correct the pants fit perfect. So I would go one size larger than what the chart reccomends.

I did not see a sizing chart. I normally wear clothes L---10-12 US. I ordered a size14 and it was perfect. My sizing follows a standard. I don't use most size charts. I look at the style and can pretty much tell what will fit my shape and size. I have a true hour-glass figure. Medium top34/small waist29/large to extra-large bottom42. So base on a cut/style. I judge the size. I hope this was helpful.
