The fit of the knickers certainly isn't form-fitting - that would defeat the purpose. We clarified the language - what we meant to say is that if you wear padded shorts underneath these, you should definitely order one size larger than you would for your normal pants.
The whole idea of knickers is to have pants that look good, but otherwise disappear when you ride. Ours are based on Japanese cyclotouring and hiking knickers, which are quite sophisticated, with articulated knees and hidden drawcords at the leg cuffs. This makes them incredibly complex to sew, which explains the price. If we priced them like most clothing companies price clothing, they'd be unaffordable...
