This are the third pair of Giordana Silver Line bibshorts I ordered. I'm 6ft 200lbs with a 38in waist, the XL fit perfect. The chamois is very comfortable in long rides. Rest of the material is like a skin suit and compression on the legs is superb.
I wear these on all my longer rides. 100+ miles. The chamois is firm and disappears underneath me. No need to use any cream. Two pair rotation with 230 rides total, time to relegate to 40mile rides. Leg grippers are good and don�t cause any irritation. Shoulder straps are comfortable and a good length for me, sometimes chaff my nipples. Getting them on Sale and I would highly recommend. I�m 5�7� 155 lbs and purchase size medium. Older style Giordana�s was size small.
This is a comfortable bib. I liked it so much that I ordered a second pair. I really like how the branding is subtle and is a tiny patch of rubber that will not flake off over time. The white straps are also nice since they don�t show through most jerseys.

I have bought several different brands in the last 2 years and these are the winners for me. Very pleased with the material and fit. Most comfortable bibs I have bought. After riding these for a few months I have purchased 3 of them. Plenty of room in the front area. Fabric is so nice and comfortable. Chamois feels good after 5 plus hours in saddle. Straps are great ----Not cheap but not expensive.
These are the most comfortable bibs I own. In general, I really like the Giordana products. I have the Fusion, Silverline, and FR-C bibs. For me, the Silverline bibs are the best. They have the same chamois as the Fusion but have better leg grippers. The FR-C bibs are very good, but the chamois is a little bit different and not as comfortable for me.
I like these bib shorts. If I have to reorder again, I would go up another size from large to xtra large.
After washing, it does shrink a bit with air drying.
I would give these bibs 4-5 stars if it weren't for a major flaw. There is a seam down the middle of the crotch. And it isn't flat. It slightly folds. This is a very bad thing if you're a guy!! I don't think the ladies would like it either now that I think about it. I'd post a picture of what it looks like if I could (not that you'd want to see it, LOL).
These are now my favorite bibshorts. I've used Assos, Voler, Santini, Pearl Izumi, and Sugoi bib shorts and these easily top them all. The fit perfectly, have excellent compression, and disappear on the bike.
Bibs are great quality with nice tight compression and a firm, but comfortable chamois. They are a bit snug but not so much that I'd recommend sizing up. First ride in these was 80+ miles and I was very impressed with how comfortable they remained through the duration of the ride.
Flat, seamless straps make you forget they're there.
Great bibs, run a little small great on longer
Rids. In my opinion little warm in the summer
Then other bibs.
