seeing these are £45 at Merlin and very tempted…. how do they size up ? I am a 34 waist – thinking I need an L. Cheers

yeah i got xl and they are way to big, unfortunately ive worn them already.

large would eb the way to go

im 34 waist and got a large . should have got a med tbh but i couldnt be arsed sending back to merlin. still not worn em lol

ive got mediums, 33" waist and they're adjusted to their smallest waist – there loads of adjustment, so you'd be fine with mediums.

well if you buy the mediums and they are too small i will swap you mine are large and brand new with tags still on 😉

Thanks for the heads up on the offer, ordered one.
Bring on the filth 😉

I'm 34" and just got mine in L fit great.

Yup, 34w/large here. Fit fine.

think I might go try a pair on somewhere…-)

mick – I thought you had ordered a medium ? (according to your other post…..)

Mine just arrived in the post. 36" waist and i went for XL – they just about fit if i pull in the velcro tabs and there is certainly room to spare. Probably be fine once i put winter bib tights under them.

They don't come up as long as my Endura 3/4 length shorts though as the Attacks come up over my knees while cycling which is a bit disappointing (as the main point of 3/4 is to cover the knees) but then my legs are *ahem* slightly longer than average. It's good to be a freak…. 🙁

iain sorry your right i got a med and should have gone small ;-( im a 33 waist most of the time.

You are all fatties aren't you? 😆

I wear my wife's pair 😳

I'm 34" waist, not sure of sizing.

They give me sweaty knees.

went to shop, tried on large and medium – the medium fit 😛

Thanks all

Bugger, so it looks like the mediums i ordered the other day for my 32" waist are going to be too big..?
I'd best get on the pies then…

jackal – the sizing is pretty weird – I took a large and a medium into the changing room – the large was pretty big but I could just about get away with them with the velcro waist straps done right up, and the medium felt just a bit too tight……. When I took them off I saw that they were on the wrong hanger and I had just got into a small !!! got a 'proper medium' and tried them on – perfect….

I'm 33" waist, got mediums and had to have them adjusted as tight as they would go, changed for small's and they are perfect! maybe they just like flattering their customers!

Hmmmm….

Just this second received my 3/4 attacks, and…..
They fit perfect!

Now, I normally take jeans in a 32" waist, but i've just measured with a tape measure and i'm ,erm, actually slightly larger than a 32" waist shall we say… Ok then, nearer 34" waist, but i'm not sure if i'm measuring in the correct place 🙄
No way would i fit in a small.

Anyway, very pleased that they fit but gutted i've discovered that i'm a fat bastard, pleasure and pain 😆

Big thanks to Merlin anyway, only ordered them 3.00pm tuesday and they arrived 10am thurs morn, even with a postal strike..!

I hope you bought them from that shop and didnt do the dirtiest of dirtiest sins and buy them online for half the price afterwards?
