Looking at a couple of pairs for the season. Anyone tried them? How does their size match up? European (run small) or U.S. (what I'll call 'normal' size). What do you think of their quality? Thanks.

I have a pair of the women's windfront bib tights which may or not be a good comparison for size. Runs same size as Pearl Izumi and Hincapie. Quality seems good. A friend recommended them and she'd notice any quality issues having been through PI's new sense of "quality."

The women's bib tights are ergonomically shaped so definitely fit better when bent over the bars. The legs run very short but then most manufacturers seem to think women like cold ankles.

I had a pair with some sort of windstopper front panels. Probably because of this (not as stretchy) the 'Small' size fit more like a medium in other brands.
