Hi Victoria
It sounds like these are much too large. Unless your husband has very slim legs and a very large tummy he needs to go down 1 or 2 sizes! If they haven' t been worn we will accept them back without the tags attached. Please can you drop us an email to fatlads@fatladattheback.com we can sort this.
Hi Andrew
I am sorry that you are disappointed with the shorts. We are one of only a handful of manufacturers who make quality cycle wear in this size and I can assure you that we use only the very best Italian technical fabrics and components. Please take advantage of our returns policy and return the item for a refund.
