GORE WEARMen's Ultimate 2in1 Shorts

These shorts are well made and designed , albeit very expensive . Sizing is way off. According to the size charts I am a size L so bought that . I could barely get them over my knees . So have now bought XLarge which fit well but are ridiculously expensive at £100 plus. I am a 33 inch waist but am wearing shorts that are for a 37 inch waist ( X large)
