Hi there, 30 inches is the measurement of the actual waist band of the trousers - rather than a physical waist measurement - which is much higher on the body and not where the trousers will sit. The best thing to do is measure the actual waistband of the trousers you currently wear for cycling in and see how they compare. They are pretty accurate to size, so for example, if you normally wear a 10, you'll most likely want a 10 in these. Hope this makes more sense? Thanks, Carolyn
