Has anyone worn Gore C5 all Mtn shorts? Inseam is 36.5cm and they don’t look to be excessively baggy.

I looked at those but they didn’t have my size. How loose are they in the legs?
They aren't tight but they aren't overly baggy. They keep a streamline cut that doesn't bunch up or catch on anything which is nice. The crutch is also high enough that your seat doesn't get bound up on anything, the TLD's do though. :(

Thanks everyone for your replies. I ended up going with the Gore C5 all mtn shorts as they are quite long and slimmer fitting than some.. i would have liked to try the Blackline shorts but I couldn’t get my size.

I love the Dobies , got 2 pairs , so comfy , only small negative, made so tough, can be a little warm on hot days

Fark, no mention of the Aldi shorts that rule supreme, at least in my draw they do, better quality than some $100+ 'name' brand jobbies I've bought which had failing zips and clips.

The best so far is the one with a diagonal zipped pocket on the right leg with reflective piping, still like new after countless rides.
