I recently decided to move away from bibs and found this great product to help in that transition. These worked great during my last multi-day bikepacking adventure. They do not sag at the waistline while riding and stay snug in all areas just as bibs.
Fit true to size. Comfortable padding and bonus extra pockets ideal for ID, CC and cash. Bought a couple pairs, were perfect for daily cycling on vacation. Pockets held ID, CC and cash with total peace of mind.
I have ridden all ends of the Pearl Izumi liner shorts for last decade, this was the first cargo variant I have purchased. I have worn size L PI Bibs and Liner Shorts for 20 years so I did not even try them before cutting off the tags... Big mistake as these are small -- not too small but close. I suspect these are from a new supplier and run smaller. Try before you commit is my advice from experience.
These have the better pad, good for longer rides and the cargo pocket is nice I guess.
Got an XL-i have a 34-35 waist, do the math for yourself. Fits well, the pocket is actually a welcome feature, used it the first time by mistake but realized it is very convenient.
I can ride without concern of chafe or sore spots
I like PI products. Always a good bang for the buck. I just could not get comfortable in these. The size was correct but I found they chafed without using a cream.
