Santic Biking Bib Shorts Bib Pants Bike Shorts Males Cycle Pants Biking Pants Males’s Summer time Bicycle 3D Sponge Padded

this may be my new favorite Santic cycling bib shorts
I’ve tried many models of Santic bibs with my favorite being their older, colorblock style with the simple chamois.These fit/size the same (US M for me) and have a similar front waist line that makes nature breaks not too difficult. These improve on the colorblock shorts with a cargo pocket on the right thigh and what I hope will remain (through laundering and time in the sun) more comfortable, smoother lock stitching. The non-slip hem feels sturdier, maybe with more sophisticated application of silicone non-slip material?While I liked the color blocked styling, the dark red color fades to a dull pink with my many hours of cycling in the sunshine. The grey color is less noticeable when it fades. This basic all-black is just the thing. It feels decently compressive.The gray “3D” chamois is (I think) the same as the one on the Santic bib tights I got most recently and it is pretty comfortable for 30-40 mile rides. My previous pair of Santic carbo bibs of a different style was OK, but the fabric didn’t last and the red “4D” chamois delaminated relatively quickly (less than one year). My many years old (some as old as six years!) colorblock shorts’ simple chamois are still in great shape thousands of miles later, though the lycra fabric or leg bands have worn too far to wear in public, OK for the home trainer :-). I hope these new cargo bibs can replace my old favorite colorblock Santic bib shorts going forward for hot weather riding.

Great alternative to the $100+ pair
I spent a while researching “cheap” amazon bib shorts before I bought these because I know from experience that buying off-brand here can be risky. Thankfully, these shorts are worth every penny (and then some).Fit: I’m 5’10”, 170lbs, 31 waist with some thicc ol’ thighs. I went with the medium and think I made the right choice. Everything fits perfect except for the non-slip thigh bands. They’re a little tight now but I’m sure they’ll stretch a little over time. If I had ordered large, I think the shoulder straps and torso would have been too loose.Material: super stretchy and opaque, absorbs sweat and breathes well during ride, dries out quickly. Seams are solid and hold up to pulling/stretching.Saddle: This is the only place where I can find a meaningful difference between spending $40 and spending $120 on bike shorts. The saddle in these shorts isn’t bad, but it sure ain’t Pearl Izumi. It’s foam, not gel, but it’s got good definition/firmness and seems to be located in all the right spots. I’m not a fan of overly squishy butt pads – this one passed the test.Pocket: fantastic extra feature. Holds my iPhone X in place even at high cadence.Need I say more? These shorts are great. If you’re on the fence, this is your sign to buy them.

Great for the money, just one complaint.
Look, fit and feel are very nice, the leg grippers work well. They feel very similar to my Pactimo bibs with one exception, the chamois does not come up high enough in the front. Man parts are right on the edge of the front of the chamois so you end up poking out a bit. If the front was sewn a bit higher I would buy more. Pic for chamois front height reference.

Do yourself a favour and don’t purchase these. The pad in these bibs are garbage for his price point. The material feels thin and like junk. The grippers on the legs are the roughest I’ve experienced and the length of the leg itself is very short. For 80$ this is an absolute ripoff. Save your money

Great value for money, very good quality. I’ll buy more!

I use these cycling pants for indoor bike fitness. The pants are easy to put on, comfortable while exercising and easy to clean/dry.
