Member  22 |  Subject: how does your top fit?Maybe a dumb question but this is my first tri and frist time wearing tri gear. I just got my Pearl Izumi Elite Tri Singlet and the fit is good around my chest and stomach but it seems the top is a little short. When i move around in it, it rises up and ends up sits about an inch about my waistline. Is this right or do i need a different size? Thanks, Neil |

Pro 4089   Without house | Subject: RE: how does your top fit? Depends. How tall are you? How long is your torso? Most tri tops I've had ride up a bit...for a majority of them, they just aren't designed for taller people or those with long torsos. There are some out there you can find, but I don't know particular brands. Hopefully someone else will be able to help you out in that regard. |
