Pearl IzumiMen's PRO Bib Short(Return to Product Page)

My go to bibs. Have been wearing for a decade or more. Chamois is the best. Bought two new bibs recently. One developed a hole in the left leg on first ride and Western Bike exchanged. The new ones feel a bit lighter weight than the older version. Which is not necessary a bad thing as long as they last like the old versions. Hard to buy anything else since the pad is spot on for me. Fabric breaths well and moderate compression. Normally ride 30-50 miles on most days up to 80-100 as summer goes.

Took one star off this time since a hole developed in one bib. Never happened before and have owned a dozen of these or more....

Great design, the Pro chamois is the best I have tried, super comfortable on 3 hour plus rides. But as with most of my recent PI purchases, assembly quality has nose dived. Not sure if they moved their manufacturing facilities or what. One season on both PI Expedition shorts and Pro Bibs, the chamois pad stitching has begun to unravel, and the Bibs have developed a 1/2 dollar size hole right in the seat area, making them unrideable. Another order of PI socks had a hole in the toe out of the box (they did replaced those). Really unfortunate, so I have been switching to Rapha on sale items when I can find them.

So far so good. I've done a couple 30ish mile rides in them and they are very comfortable. The material is light almost feels nonexistent. I can see these being my 'go to' bibs for years to come.

Kudos to Pearl for designing these excellent bib shorts. Smooth material and a generous chamois make this my go to short on group and or daily rides. Love the leg grippers!

I have sever Pearl Izumi products and these are tied for the nicest,(cold weather bibs are the other set) they really do have a good fit, the silicone leg grippers aren't ideal for hair riders sadly but are still maintaining themselves so the durability is there. The upper is also hardly noticed when riding which is epic. I really enjoy these bibs for clubs and century rides.

Love, love, love these bib shorts. Had bought a couple pairs in an earlier version that I absolutely loved the fit and feel of the fabric (soft as butter, but still providing enough compression/support) but the chamois frankly don't feel right, pinched and or caused numbness in points, and looked a bit like a wet diaper. The new chamois changed all that, and now I have zero complaints. Will buy more as my wallet allows.

Most comfortable BIB shorts ever

I Flippin love these!!!!

The comfort is unmatched.

I've purchased numerous bib shorts from several manufacturers, some more expensive than others, and these Pearlzumi were as good or better than some costing 30-35% more.

Fit well and don't ride up on long 40+ mile rides. Light weight great summer bibs.

I thought I would try out a premium pair of bibs. Damn it, these are far and away the most comfortable bibs I have used. The chamois is exceptionally comfortable and well-fitted. I am not sure about the fabric it is so lightweight and stretchy - I hope it wears well because I am not giving these up and at $225 I cannot be buying them too often. But next month I will be buying another pair, so I have one in the wash and one to wear. These really are the best.

These are the most comfortable bibs I've owned. The chamois is great, the fabric is great, the sizing and dimensions are right. They make both a short and long inseam version. I'd probably prefer a length between those two, but it's a minor niggle. They are not cheap, but worth it.

These shorts fit really well and the chamois suits me well. I like that the suspenders are the same slight fabric as the short and don't dig in or bunch up like other bibs I've worn. My only complaint is the six(!) tags sewn into an exposed seam - cutting them off so they don't irritate was a bugger. For a short that's supposed to be sustainable, please bag the tags!

The chamois in this bib short is fantastic for really long rides. It's nearly as good as top of the line Mille models from Assos, but costs much less. I followed the size guide and got an outfit that was snug but comfortable.

After many miles in many bibs'these are and have been my favs since first wear. Second skin bibs at a reasonable price!

I've always loved pearl Izumi I have a few pairs of their road shorts in size large and they fit fine. I bought this in XL going by the size chart and what people were saying about how accurate the size was. I didn't find it that way at all. They run a little larger I think. My waist is 35-36 and the XL was way too big. The chamois was hanging low in the back. The waist had too much room. I could easily just pull it several inches away from my body. Now I need to decide if I want to take a chance on the Large size.

Fits great good material

The Pro Bibshorts are the most comfortable out of all the ones I own.

I use these bibs for long ride days. 80 - 100+ miles.

Great fit, cool enough for summer and comfortable.

Very comfortable bib, although the padding is a tad thicker than I like (that's why I rated it 4 stars and not 5.

Other than that it's a great bib!
