I’ve had to take the elastic waist adjustment belt off and this thing is still proper snug with nothing more than a thermal t-shirt on underneath.
If I take the Gore-tex lining out I can put the elastic waist adjustment belt in and put on a thin ish woollen jumper on top of my thermal t-shirt. It seems to be the lining pulling it in….. Could I put up with it for a 20,000km ride? Not sure. Still I’m going to ride with it for a season and see it if gives a little. Having said all that, the large is probably a bit big

I've experienced similar sizing issues with HG clothing - there is no substitute for trying it on in the shop, I have found.
