Pearl Izumi Women's 5" Sugar Short (Black) (M)
Well, they are black and stretchy, but the resemblance to the prior pairs I have purchased stops there. Bought two pairs and they are super small, and the pad quality is not good - very different from previous pairs. Basically just a simple pad of whatever it is, with no contours or sections so it seems like you have a board in your pants. It has a small side pocket, but could only accommodate a lip balm or folded money, so not too useful. Definitely a manufacturer change and not a good one. I suppose they might work for someone, but certainly not this medium sized woman. Maybe a child or XS woman.

Measurement Guide:

  1. Bust- Measure circumference around fullest part, across bust points, keeping the tape horizontal
  2. Waist- Measure circumference around the narrowest part (typically the small of the back where the body bends to the side), keeping tape horizontal
  3. Hips- Measure circumference around fullest part of hips keeping the tape measure horizontal

Measurement Guide Notes:

  • Use the chart to determine size
  • If measurements are between two sizes, sizing down will provide a tighter fit while sizing up will provide a looser fit
  • If the measurements for the chest and waist correspond to two different suggested sizes, choose the size indicated by the chest measurement
  • If measurements for hips and waist correspond to two different suggested sizes, choose the size indicated by the hip measurement
