Louis Garneau Men's Optimum 2 Shorts (Black) (XL)
terrible ... changed the cut from the original optimum ... way too tight in the crotch. even tried XXL
my original optimum 1 are my favorite shorts. But LG changed the Optimum 2 cut for some unknown reason.
this seems to be true across their line up.
also ordered a pair of LOUIS GARNEAU MEN'S CB NEO POWER SHORTS ... they were even worse
good fit everywhere except the front of the crotch and lower belly ... way to tight

senseless attempt to improve on what was a great product ... bummer, now i need to find a new brand

Louis Garneau Men's Optimum 2 Shorts (Black) (M)
These are great shorts. After a few rides in my first pair I ordered two more. Quality construction. Fit is true to size. Nice padding. Very comfortable and they move well with you. And an important detail: They come up far enough in the back. The only negative: While they are high enough in the back, they are also higher than most quality shorts in the front. It's not that enough of an issue that I would not recommend them (because as I said, I bought 2 more pair after my initial pair). It just feels odd when you put them on.

Louis Garneau Men's Optimum 2 Shorts (Black) (XL)
These are my favorite biking shorts I've ever had. I have no issues with the fit. I have them in both the black and the blue.

Measurement Guide:

  1. Chest- Take measurement of the circumference around the fullest part of the chest while arms are relaxed at sides
  2. Waist- Measure the circumference of the waist at the natural crease of the waist while keeping tape measure a bit loose (finding natural waist crease can be easily found by bending over to one side)
  3. Hips- Standing with feet together, measure the circumference around the fullest part of the hips at the top of the legs
  4. Inseam- Using pants that fit well, measure the crotch seam to the bottom of the leg
  5. Body Length- Run a tape measure from the top pf the shoulder, across the chest/belly, through the crotch and up the back to the starting point

Measurement Notes:

  • Keep tape measure level and not too tight
  • For most accurate results, take measurements over underwear or close fitting apparel
  • Take measurements twice with a flexible tape measure to ensure accuracy
