Why We Like The Giordana SilverLine Bib Short
Good bibs can make or break a ride, no doubt about it. We refuse to bargain shop on shorts if it means sacrificing materials or fit. Every once and a while a pair of bibs come along that exceeds our expectations. Giordana's SilverLine Bib Short are a great example and prove that you can find comfort and value in a pair of bibs that simply perform well and look great.
Giordana constructs the SilverLine out of a textured silky woven fabric which wraps around the leg with two panels. This helps supports the quads and the glutes separately and provides compression to reduce muscle fatigue and wicks moisture away from your skin. The core system stabilizes the short while accommodating the waist and hips for a comfortable fit that stays in place. This results in a fit that's comfortable and unrestrictive, yet perfectly supportive with just the right amount of compression. A plush Cirro chamois is highly breathable and provides plenty of cushioning adding comfort for your day in the saddle.
Soft wide elastic-microfiber bib straps constructed from LoPro 0 are seamless, super comfortable, and disappear under the jersey. At the center of the bib uppers are the 190 Mesh fabric to move moisture keeping you cool and dry. Holding the legs securely in place throughout your perfect spin is the supportive 4.5cm elastic leg cuffs. The short's reflective rear striping at the back of both legs amplify your blinky and car headlights ensuring safety at dawn and dusk.

Where have these been all my cycling life? These fit great, and they’re not kidding about the chamois, no chamois cream is necessary. My only question at this point is how they’ll hold up over time.

These are some of the best fitting and supportive shorts that I own. I would definitely buy another pair.

Comfortable but not sturdy

After about six months and probably 40 rides and washes, I'm getting ready to retire this pair. While the chamois held up and is quite comfortable, the fabric simply started thinning in random places. I've had about six pairs of bibs so far and these are the most expensive and comfortable, but also the least durable.

Pics or it didn't happen, pic included. My best man and I (along with my wife) rode 3 hours to the top of a mountain in Giordana Silverline, got married, and bombed back down. Giordana does clothing right. They do run pretty standard sizing, not euro. I am 5'7" 130 lbs and wear XS.

Well Fitted and Comfortable

I have about 25 rides on these and I'm pretty hard on my gear (but delicate when washing). They fit snug but very comfortable. Never had to adjust once I'm on the bike and riding. Will purchase a second pair very soon.

Wear holes and shammy detached

Bought 2 pairs. Red and blue. Both pairs got a wear hole in same position on my inner right thigh within a few rides. Shammy in blue pair entirely detached within 10 or so rides. Very disappointed.

Wow, impressed so far

After wearing Castelli for over 20 years I returned my Castelli that I had purchased from cc two weeks ago (which ran smaller now than a few years ago) and got a pair of these Giordana Silver line bib shorts in the same size, which is XL (at the recommendation of a Cc rep who raved about the Giordana silverline) these fit properly and at trying on feel super comfortable, the flat elastic straps sit flat, opposed to mesh straps which can roll up. I love the textured legs and sides on these, they look great and seem to be more durable. They remind me a bit of upper line Assos models I've heard from many reviews here, YouTube, and other places that Giordana silverline are the BEST sub $200 shorts available. From seeing them I have to agree (so far) from inspecting them in person. I'm going to start using them and I will update this review after a few months of using them. Btw, I got them in navy blue, I like that there are no loud 1990's logos, they are very good looking, and much more expensive looking than they are.

My Absolute Favorite

These bibs are very impressive. I was lucky to find these on sale and I couldn't be happier. These bibs are on par with much more expensive bibs that other brands sale. The compression fit is perfect. The chamios are on point. These are my go to bibs for any ride over 50 miles!

These Shorts Rock!!

- xxl

Been at this now for about five years, got these a year ago and they are still my go to set for sure. I've had a couple others in this price range but they are just not as comfortable. I have lost part of my buttocks due to advancing age/old age/ etc... and these have a great chamois. They are just now showing a bit of wear and tear, use them about once a week. I'm getting ready to order another set just so I always have a clean set. Gonna probably throw out some of my more worn models soon. I'm 6'1" 200 lbs and the xxl fits me just right.

Great Bibs Great Price
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
For a bib that?s not outrageously priced these are great. Fit as expected. Very comfortable. About 10 rides in them and no complaints.
