They are SbD, Tikka. I just looked at them and laughed. They wouldn't even fit over the bare bones of my pelvis.

They really should be listed under the Kids section! Size Small are quite tight on me, but not uncomfortably so.

Agree it’s the last bit of fleecy SBDs that are the tightest it’s the design
I wear medium
I can get the small almost all the way without effort but gave up on the last but I expect if I wasn’t rushing I’d get them on

What I’m taking from this conversation is that even within the range, SbD’s sizing is very inconsistent.

Or the winters are consistently smaller than the standard material. I have shorts, capris, longs and a skort in XS and they're all a nice fit.

I am still running in skorts. Last night it was actually freezing so I put on my reflective leggings under my skort…. my legs were so hot! I have decided I don’t need winterised leggings.

I bought small in SBD winters last winter after buying my first shorts with them. I’ve got small in everything ! I hadn’t notice the Winters were ‘snug’ except that they are certainly warmer than any of my other leggings!

I think I bought medium as my flanci are medium and I didn't think to look at my SBDs which are large so just got lucky
I knew they came up tighter so just thought it was supposed to be

but when one pair I bought was a miss labeled small I got a replacement and was told to keep the small ... I am closer to wearing them but still decided to get this pair in medium as I want to wear them now! The minus numbers look like lasting a while (typically as we all want to avoid the heating!)
