Description Comfort and Breathability Created From Recycled Materials

This short has everything you need, from a durable construction down to all the little details that truly make the difference when out on the trail.
This bib short includes integrated low-profile cargo pockets on the thighs and lower back for easy access to smartphones and snacks. Compressive ELITE Transfer fabric has been made from recycled content, creating a comfortable fit while also delivering the flexibility to wear any top you prefer without worrying about carrying capacity.

Checks all the boxes

Suspenders are perfect. Compression is good but I prefer a little more. Chamois is great and I like it better than their new Levitate Chamois. It lasts fine through a 30 mile ride. The floating top sheet reduces friction. Legs fit fine and the silicone gripers keep them from riding up.
I wear between large and XL so I bought XL. The Large might have given me more compression . P.I. gives a generous cut unlike the European ones except Endura which I also like a lot.

Fit is good, bib straps are not as substantial as they used to be.

Comfortable and practical

Used this bib on my first century ride and was very impressed with its comfort and fit. The storage pockets come in handy especially since I rode sleeveless and didn't have any jersey pockets available. This is one of my favorite bibs to wear. I wish they had more colors available, the the forest green bib with an orange baselayer is fire.

Great bibs, great price

These bibs are as comfortable and functional as more expensive cargo bibs I own by other manufacturers. They're very well made, and the forest green color is nice if you're tired of wearing black shorts all the time. The leg gripper is the grippy-stuff-inside-the-hem variety, instead of the wider leg band that most companies are using these days, but it's a wider hem and it lays nice and flat. The straps are very minimal, so they're very comfy if you wear these without a base-layer. I'm wearing these often on 20-50 mile rides on pavement and gravel.
I'm 5'11 and 145 lbs., and a medium fits me perfectly (everyone who reviews cycling clothing should include this very important tidbit of information).

Well made bibs, but the chamois is not comfortable for me

I really want to like these bibs, but the chamois was not comfortable on any ride over an hour. I do like the side pockets.
