Chill 5 Short by Terry

Very disappointed in chamois in these shorts. There is no padding. I like the fit in the legs though. I have the Bella shorts and padding is perfect. You need to combine the pad from Bella with the fit from Chill shorts.

Love these shorts!!! I ride on a regular basis around 20-35 mile rides and these are perfect. I would definitely trust them to go longer also. They are butter soft but I did not find them slippery as some comments state. NO sausage leg!!! I usually wear a medium in Terry bottoms but went with the large and I'm glad I did; perfect fit. For comparison I am 5'5' and about 145lbs.

I spoke to customer service about which shorts would work best as triathlon shorts, since I have not found ones I like. My favorite cycling shorts are Terry, so I hoped they had something to offer for triathlon. Terry suggested Chill 5, and I just wore them for an Olympic tri yesterday. They worked really well! They stayed put under the wetsuit, and were still damp after the 40K bike ride, but not uncomfortable. They dried quickly on the run. I did not experience any riding up or chafing. I will wear them for a 70.3 next. My previous Terry shorts were a size small, but I opted for medium because the Chill 5 is supposed to fit tightly. Medium is just right. I am 5'4" 130 lbs. with a bit of a mom belly and these shorts fit right over the belly comfortably while still remaining snug in the legs. I am very happy with my purchase.

Love these. I’m 5’6” tall and these shorts are just the right length for me. They come mid thigh, not to short not to long.

Note: These do run a bit small. I no longer fit in my Touring shorts (Medium) so I bought these in a small, based both on that and the size chart. I couldn't get the waistband over my hips. I think that's because of how they are cut - exchanged for a Medium and they fit well, just the tiniest bit of extra material where my hips taper. For reference, I have a 26" waist and 37" hips. These shorts are very comfortable. The chamois is nice, feels similar to the one in the touring short, but perhaps a bit thinner, which I prefer. It doesn't move at all and I have only minimal soreness after 60+ miles. The leg band can ride up slightly while riding, but even in hot weather it's no more than I expect with any short. I'd say the inseam is closer to 5.5 (at least based on comparing my tan lines). The waistband comes up high, to my natural waist, which I prefer because it prevents anything from moving during a ride. I've done 250 miles in these shorts, between 25 and 70 miles at a time, and could not be happier. And they look great when I'm not on the bike. My touring shorts were comfortable, but they made my thighs look awful. Lastly, the grippers in the leg band do not cause skin irritation, chafing, or discomfort. They are gripper dots rather than a solid silicone band and for once I do not have a red ring on each leg where the sweat and silicone caused extra chafing. All in all, these are my all-time favorite shorts, especially because they offer the shorter inseam which I prefer for training. I am even tempted to buy the Chill 7 for my longer rides just for more compression benefit
