Pad Poorly Placed And Too Thin
I'm really disappointed with these bib shorts. Unfortunately I received a LeCol bib shorts buying guide a day after I received these, although I had spoken with LeCol via online chat beforehand to ensure I was buying the right shorts. I have a pair of Pro Bib shorts I bought approx. three years ago; they have been outstanding on all of my long endurance rides (7-10 hours in the saddle each day), though have now worn a little thin from all the riding. I had expected this new pair to be similarly brilliant, but the design has completely changed. As LeCol states, they are designed to be more comfortable when you are in the riding position, leaning over your bike. The straps will feel exceptionally tight when standing, but comfortable when on the bike - and the more aero your riding position, the more comfortable the straps will be. The pad, however, is thin and stitched in to the shorts way too far forward, so most of the pad is useless - going up almost to my navel at the front, when I'm in riding position; meanwhile my "sit bones" have almost zero protection as the pad doesn't go back that far. Combined with the thinness of the pad, this means that I'm effectively supporting most of my weight through the inguinal region, rather than the sit bones, so I have suffered extreme soreness both during and after the rides. Finally, rather than fitting neatly around the body, these shorts have a lot of loose fabric, so there are wrinkles particularly in the inner thigh area, going around most of the way to the quads, and they are also very loose around the abdomen. When in riding position, this looseness in the front is exacerbated. I am a "standard" medium build and I've never had this sort of issue with any bib shorts before.

Another Excellent Product From Lecol
Usual top quality product. Previously taken a medium and this time felt a tad small, but not sufficient to exchange, so follow size guides carefully. Improved cushioning and integration is noted.

Pro Bib Feels Different
Feels like it's made of plastic, doesn't breathe or stretch enough. Previous Pro Bib Shorts (I had those for a couple years) felt different and better.

My Go-to Bib Shorts
Can't go wrong with the Pro Bib Shorts. I've worn the previous generation of Pro Bib Shorts as well and can say those and the current generation Pro Bib shorts are excellent. I did have to size one size smaller from S to XS from the previous generation (I'm 5'8" 140 lbs) to get the compression I wanted. The straps are a bit tight at first but they'll stretch to fit over time.

Pro Bib Shorts
Good fit in a medium( 6ft, 12st 7lbs) the only thing letting them down lately is the new green pad is not as comfortable as the old blue one and the stitching is not the same quality and begins to unravel very easily, recently had to get a replacement pair at a discounted price as the stitching round the pad came undone.
