Bill Rodgers Apparrel Deals - CAUTION

I got a few items also. The prices are great. I am very satisfied with the tights that I ordered, will work good as another layer for the very cold days. I really like my old school nylon jacket also! Hats are small, but I have nieces and nephews. The only wait and see are the supplex shorts. Overall happy with the price to quality ratio.

The stuff must have been manufactured in China.

Thanks for smacking me in the forehead regarding a good use for the hat. It will likely fit my son perfectly.

Now don't I look like the selfish moron...

I should also agree with your point regarding price to quality ratio.

Don't be too hard on yourself, I figure giving the hats away was a good way to spread some running history to the uninitiated! (I do wish I had one that fit, though).

The shorts fit fine through my waist (I'm a 33 inch waist, and the 32-34 fits fine); however, they are a little tight through the butt. When I looked in the mirror, I noticed that the shorts didn't look tight, so it must be the liner that is tight.

I thought about buying more and getting the 36-38 inch waist in hopes that they'd be looser in the butt, but I'm concerned that the waist will be too loose.

The liner is not too tight, your unit is too big.

The shorts are pretty "revealing" if you know what I mean

a heads up, the zippers were made in china, with a lead paint job.

My waist is about 34-35, and the waistband on the large (36-38) shorts is pretty snug. You'd probably be okay if you took the gamble.

Quick question on sizing-

I'm a 30 - 32 for pants

thatd put me in small for shorts by waist but medium by inseam

any advice which size to go with?

Medium. I'm comparable size and they're definitely tight.

thanks, all i needed to hear

I have been buying gear there for years. Their sizing is correct. There has been a dumbing down of sizes by other companies for you fata$$ people over the years.

A few more miles and a few less buffets may make your shorts fit a little better.

haha if anything i need more buffets, 5'10" and 130 lbs

but really i wasnt sure what was more important, inseam or waist sizing

ah yes, and I went with 2 Mediums and 2 smalls- based off the colors available
