Product details

When we thought about designing these bib shorts, the idea was to create a pair of shorts that we would wear immediately after washing, no matter what kind of tour was on the programme that day. And that's exactly what we did. Firstly, a soft, stretchy fabric was developed that feels fantastic against the skin as soon as you put the shorts on. This fabric moulds to the body without being tight or constricting. Special attention has been paid to the fit to ensure that everything stays where you want it. Silicone grippers have been added to the leg ends to ensure your tan line stays crisp. The mesh bib straps are stretchy while providing extra ventilation. Of course, the Progetto X2 Air chamois has been used for all-day comfort. A few extra details have also been added, such as a back pocket for storage and reflective stripes for added safety. All this makes the Espresso your favourite bib shorts.

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...
