Product details

When we set out to develop this bibshort, we envisioned creating a model that could be put on immediately after washing and drying, ready for any type of ride. And that's exactly what we did. First, we developed a soft, stretchy fabric that provides a wonderful feel against the skin as soon as you put on the bibshort. The fabric hugs the body and moves with you without constricting or limiting your movements. We also dedicated maximum attention to the fit: everything stays exactly where you want it. Additionally, silicone grippers at the leg openings ensure a consistently sharp tan line. The mesh straps are stretchy and provide extra ventilation. As you would expect from us, our Progetto X2 Air seat pad is designed for all-day comfort. Finally, we added a few more details, such as a rear pocket for storing essentials and reflective strips for added safety. All of this makes the Espresso our - and your - new favorite bibshort.

The soft, stretchy fabric of the Espresso Bibshort feels very comfortable against the skin. The seamless mesh straps and mesh back ensure effective air exchange on the upper body. However, the straps are a little rough, which is why we recommend combining them with a base layer...
