A Work in Progress
We have been talking about doing this for the women who buy TSH for the last year. A real world size guide that not only shows a variety of women but also allows us to give voice to their preferences via the different pieces in our collection. This is a work in progress in the sense that we need to add more women, more body types, as a format to discuss sizing and preferences. Our goal is to have XS Women through XL represented over time. Though not complete yet, we hope this helps you determine the size and fit of our clothing. It’s a big deal spending money on clothes and having them shipped to your door. We want everyone to be happy when you open your package and then thrilled when you slip on the pieces on for your first ride! As always, if you have further questions you can always email us at info@tenspeedhero.com (please include height, weight, and measurements)

Katie is wearing our Team Shorts in small, fits into our Club Shorts in x-small and wears jerseys in x-small across our line. The jersey is a comfortable fit and not too tight. Women with larger quads but essentially Katie’s height may find the Team Shorts a bit binding. With this in mind we are developing a shorter pair of team shorts to fit the quads in length and circumference better.

Tricia is wearing small Team Shorts and a Small Jersey. Due to her muscularity and quad size, she also wears small Club Shorts. She finds the inseam a bit long for her leg length, and her dream is to have a 7.5 inch inseam which is an inch shorter than our current measurement. Because of this, expect to see 7.5 inch inseams across our line this summer.

Anne is wearing our team shorts in small, but is right on the edge of being a size medium. She likes a snug fit and tension on the straps, so she prefers the small bibs. Because she hovers between small and medium, Anne opts for small club shorts. She wears a small jersey across the board.

Sophia wears a Small Jersey and Medium Team Shorts. She has a tiny waist and can fit an extra small jersey – but they tend to be a bit short in front, and can ride up easily. Sophia likes our new strapless bibs, but due to her small waist, there is some slack in the elastic.

(Race Fit and Slim Fit Small Jersey, Medium Team Shorts, Medium Pro Bibs, Small Strapless Bibs)
Oriane wears a small Jersey and medium Team Shorts. Due to her height, she wears medium Club Shorts as well. Her Jersey fits perfectly snug so if her bust were even an inch bigger, we would recommend her sizing up to a medium.

(Race Fit and Slim Fit Small Jersey, Large Team Shorts, Large Pro Bibs, Medium Strapless Bibs)
Sydney prefers a small jersey across our line, Large team shorts, and Medium club shorts. Because she has a pretty long torso, the small jersey tends to ride up just a bit while she’s standing. She fits a medium jersey perfectly also, but she prefers the tightness of the Small. Sydney mentioned she had a hard time finding bibs with straps that are long enough to not feel restricting on her shoulders. This is one reason she wears a size Large.

Race Fit Large Jersey, Pro Bibs Large
Mica is the perfect fit in large in our women’s race fit and our women’s Pro Bibs. She prefers the longer inseam on the bib shorts. At 5’11 inches she has a long torso and the large fits comfortably on the shoulders and is the perfect length! A medium jersey would be too tight and not quite long enough.
