Fit is on the small side
I bought these shorts based on the decent price and because my others shorts were worn out. I ordered a medium, the size I normally wear for my 5'10" 150 lb frame. The shorts are too small and tight around the front (if you know what I mean). Even after 150 km (10 X 15 km rides) they haven't loosened up at all. The waste and legs fit fine and the material is good quality. The stitching between the saddle and the leg is uncomfortable and rides up as you wear them. The seams aren't flat stitched which leaves a material edge down the front and back of the leg.
They are of course more comfortable than not wearing riding shorts and perhaps had I ordered a size larger I wouldn't have so many issues, but since I purchase size medium in everything else I expected these would be fine in a size medium too.
Bottom line, for the price, the quality is fine, but for your own sake, if you really want these think about buying a size larger than normal and probably they'll be fine for the recreational rider. Next time I'll try another (probably more expensive) brand.

Perfect length and comfort
Great short!! Perfect length, being a bit longer than normal providing good compression to the whole thigh. Very comfy, good fit! I was thinking I needed a new saddle for my new road bike, but these shorts made all the difference.

Great product
Bought these because of another good review and was pleasantly pleased with the result. Padding stays in place well, stitching seems good. Overall great product!

very comfortable bike shorts
I wear these shorts under my bike pants for long distance rides. They really help with comfort on long rides. Padding is just right, not too soft and just enough to help you.

Plenty of Padding
I use the Quest shorts for spinning and they provide a great deal of padding and comfort. More padding than any other shorts I've worn.

Great quality and value for the money
I purchased a pair of Quest shorts a couple years ago and this new version did not disappoint. The chamois is very comfortable on any type of ride. The material is breathable and lighter than my first pair. I like the 6-panel design compared to the 8-panel. The only thing that kept me from a 5 rating was the fact that the shorts didn't have a draw string. Still great shorts though.
