Men’s 3D Padded Cycling Bib Shorts Bicycle Biking Bib Tights

They do run a little small, and the leg grippers are so good that it takes a few thigh adjustments before you are ready to ride. The pad seems firmer than the Quest short by Pearl Izumi, it definitely has a more evolved "cutout" shape. All seems fantastic after a test ride, and if they hold up over time they are a no-brainer for the price.

Have many hours in the saddle wearing standard cycling shorts, but this is my first bib. Why oh why have I not switched before now? Initial impressions, will update if any major changes: seams all intact, complete, no loose threads; thigh grip strips appear just right; pad is perfect, chamois-thin at edges but padded and flexible where needed, seams are flush, this expect zero chafing; suspenders thin and breathable and support the shorts with perfect tension without pulling or binding on shoulders; overall feel is ridiculously and unbelievably comfortable. Have a 30-mile ride in a couple of days; if the initial impression holds up, then I’ll buy another bib that same afternoon. Some have said these fit tight, but that is not my initial experience. I purchased large per sizing chart, and fit is not as snug as expected. I’m accustomed to a slightly tighter fit, but don’t want to risk suspenders binding because they’re too short. So will go with these and see how they wear on the road, and over time. Bottom line; initial impressions are very favorable for quality and value. This is especially high praise coming from someone with CDO. ( It’s like OCD, but the letters are in proper alphabetical order.).UPDATE: Initial favorable impressions have held up over a year or so. Recently purchased second bib, same size. Current sizing seems consistent with first purchase. Chamois may even be slightly more comfortable. Highly recommend.SIX-YEAR UPDATE: Everything above still holds true. These have become my go-to bibs. I’ve purchased several more over the years, and in a couple of different colors for a bit of variety. They may be slightly less durable more expensive bibs. Maybe. (Or maybe my wife is being extra careful that I don’t flash other riders. e.g., When the bib gets thin enough that as my wife is cycling behind me she says ‘hey, the way the sun is shining lets people see too much, so it’s time for those to go and time for you to order another’) However, the cost-benefit equation works very well for me.

I have been cycling for a few years and am in need of updating my riding wardrobe. I ordered these bibs in hopes of using them on my shorter, more frequent rides. I am still looking for bibs to use on longer rides. I will review these bibs over 3 rides, so it will be little long.-If you don't have time to read the whole post: Overall they are quality bibs, great price and be aware that they might feel a little 'rough' on initial rides but will soften up with use. Definitely recommend them.When I received the bibs, my first impression was that they were very well made, the stitching seemed strong and I didn't notice any 'rough spots'. The padding seemed a little thick on initial inspection but I threw them in the wash in an attempt to 'soften' everything up. My first ride with these bibs was a 20 mile ride. The fit was great, they were very supportive and even throughout my body. The straps are very comfortable and keep the bib in place. The pad still felt a little thick but I hoped that it would flatten out with the ride. Initial feel was a good but several miles into the ride I felt some pressure points on the chamois pad and the overall feeling was still thick. I tried adjusting but the feeling persisted. The straps maintained a very comfortable feel. The rest of the garment was very comfortable and supportive. The leg grips are effective and comfortable. So on my first ride the feeling was great but had some 'rough spots' on the pad. After a wash, my second ride was also approx. 20 miles. The feeling was similar and the 'rough spots' were still there. The pad did seem to flatten out a bit and was not as bulky as the first ride. Yesterday I went on a 20 mile ride and the 'rough spots' were no longer there. The pad felt much flatter and more comfortable. I wonder if they just needed a couple of washes and some 'breaking in'. Either way, I am very happy with these bibs. The price is great! I have Castelli bibs, PI and a few other brands and these are very comparable to those brands on these shorter rides. I definitely recommend this brand and will be looking out for other of their products.

I use the sizing guide to purchase RECYCLING bib shorts. The guide recommended XL and I am 6 foot four 260 pounds. I am getting back into cycling after an injury and I usually wearPearl Izumi bib shorts. I ordered a 2 XL. To be on the safe side.These bib shorts are tailored specifically for a European writing physique very slender. The big shorts felt like they were size large at best. The leg grippers are very tight and I don’t know how they would hold up overtime. The padding on the shorts is also very thick in the back And they appear to be more of a beginner entry level short. If your sit bones are already broken in and you’re accustomed to writing. I feel like the shorts had too much padding for my preference.The shorts had a great price just not a good fit for me.

I've had these in my cart for several weeks. During that time, I researched for a better bang for buck. I could not find one, and pulled the trigger. I purchased a large and being 5'10"/190lbs they are great fit. The pad are well placed, feel great, and the material is very breathable. They are summer weight and somewhat sheer (my bum photo). The straps hold in place and I did not need to tug or adjust them. The rear panel is very sheer allowing my back to stay drier. There are leg bands which hold well on me, but are not tight.The lack of excessive branding and bright neon is another plus. The logos are small and the contrast stitching is tasteful. I expected them to be tighter, but I'm losing weight and most likely in the middle of the large and medium sizes. I'll probably go down a size on the next pair. I have Spotti jerseys from this company and they are great bargains too. I also plan on getting the thermal tights and a helmet liner for the fall. I'm not ready to experiment with more expensive brands due to their "all over the place" sizing. I can build my kit without breaking the bank.

I've picked up 3 sets of Przewalksi bib shorts now and am pretty happy with them, at least when I get them on sale for a little over twenty bucks. At their approximately forty dollar price right now, they are much less of a good deal.The chamois is comfortable for short to intermediate rides but anything beyond about 2 hours is pushing it with this padding. The padding also seems to wear a bit faster than expensive brand-name bibs, but at 1/5th to 1/10th the cost, you can afford to replace them.I do wish these had a phone pocket on them, but I see they have now added a model with pockets. it is more expensive, though.On comfort and performance, I would give these 4 stars, but taking value into account, I am bumping that up to 5.

Bib shorts are a personal item so while these didn't work for me, they might for you. I found that the pad was very thick in between the legs and this made them uncomfortable and unwearable for this reason. The pad is thick all over, but in the contact area with the saddle it might not have bothered me. I didn't really get to try them out on a ride so I can't comment on that.

I am a former competitive cyclist, road and mountain. I like my bibs to fit, but not totight, and the padding to be minimal. My bio: 5'8” 145lbs (very lean figure) I bought a'medium'. See photo.My initial impression upon opening them was that the material felt good, but wow! That chamois is huge for a medium, putting them on and wearing them around, yes thechamois seam covers far too large of an area. The actual pad size was fine, but the area that the chamois covers is far larger than just the pad. It feels very uncomfortable and bulky until I get on the bike, then this seems like a moot point as the purpose of the chamois is put to use. These bibs were made to be used on a bike. They now have over 24 hours of use and multiple washings. My saddles are hard with minimal padding, but the bib pad is still to thick. Again, I like less padding. I've seen that they offer another model with a smaller pad. That will be my choice next time. This is a matter of preference, so not figured into my review. Those that like a nice comfy pad will like this one. One feature that I like a lot is that the front is low enough to allow for easy 'nature stops' without stooping over uncomfortably. The pad stays put during 2.5 hr rides and yet is not uncomfortably tight over the shoulder straps. I found the leg openings to be a little snug at first (my thighs are of average size). I now appreciate that they keep the leg material from bunching up and the bib remains in place - I like them. When on the size line, I suggest going a size up. I'll be getting more! How is the brand name pronounced?Update: I've purchased another pair (3/2020) and this one has a different chamois (red with anatomical cut rather than orange 'Protech'). This red one is far more comfortable and less bulky. Still good padding IMO, and it sits right where it needs to be, in fact it moves with me much better. Nice change Przewalski!

great buy! Great quality and great fit...great value for money!

Buena elección, bastante comodo y arma bien al cuerpo.

Fahrradhose machte erst einen einigermaßen guten Eindruck. Aber beim anprobieren war ich dann doch sehr enttäuscht. Bestellt hatte ich Größe XL obwohl ich sonst L trage. Aber die Größe war noch nichtmal L. Habe dann in XXL bestellt, aber die Größe hat sich nicht verändert. Also unbrauchbar.

Excellent value for the price. Good fit & really good padding

Very comfortable. After I tried the first pair, I immediately bought a second pair. The fit was perfect, all the stitching is top notch and the compression in the legs is very good. Recommend this item.
