Very good bib once you find your size

This bib short is very comfortable and the Castelli quality is good despite is the 'Entrata' or entry level item. After reading most of the reviews here indicating that Castelli apparel runs very small, I realised that typical size I wear (Large 'L') will not fit well, hence contacted the Competitive Cyclist team (via chat) and they suggested not one size larger but two so, I ended purchasing the bib short size XL which fits me very well.

Wow - runs small ... even for Castelli
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it

- XL

I purchased these bibs after reading the reviews with the anticipation that the 'size' issue wasn't necessarily a significant issue ... I was wrong. I usually purchase a large bib from most manufacturers, but Castelli I always order up to an XL. This purchase I did the same, an XL. Unfortunately, the XL was too small! The shoulder straps (like others mentioned) were too short and dug into my shoulders. The bib itself was very tight and way too uncomfortable. It looks like I'll have to look elsewhere for my bib.

Beat bib yet
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
the Chamois absolutely is the star here, ZERO saddle pain, the material also allows for you to move around your saddle with ease, not super tacky. I regret not getting more of these and hope its an item they will re-stock, its that good.

Excellent Bibs

Some riders had some issues with the shorts, but not me. Perhaps body type is relevant. I'm pretty thin and these shorts fit me perfectly. Chamois is extremely comfortable and held up great for 2 hot humid rides over 90 miles. The straps are snug, but I didn't find them uncomfortable or even noticeable after a a short while.

Not good

As others said the straps are too short for the body and very narrow. The big problem is the pad, which is fairly comfortable but is perforated and absorbs tons of water. After washing they are still sopping wet 2 days later. These are very poor quality sadly

Bib Straps Too Short
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- Large
- Height:
- 5' 10"
- Weight:
- 150
As usual, I sized up to a large on these bibs, I'm a medium for any other brand. Fit is typical Castelli, very form fitting, the pad and overall fit is good, but the bib straps are way too short, and I'm only 5' 10". Straps are very uncomfortable. This may not be an issue for shorter riders, but definitely an issue for taller riders. I ordered the next model up, the Competitizone, which has a similar fit, but more generous bib straps that don't dig into my shoulders. I'm returning these and keeping the Competitizone bibs.

Good bibs but shoulder straps are short
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- xxl
- Height:
- 5' 9"
- Weight:
- 220
The shorts and chamois are excellent so far. Went on a 50 miler in 90 degree heat and I was comfortable all the way to the end. I will echo what some people are saying that the shoulder straps are short. It was digging into my shoulder but I eventually got used to it. Overall, good value so far and hope it will hold up for a while.

Runs small, but good bibs

Like most of the other reviews, these bibs run small. I normally wear a Large, but ordered an Extra Large and they fit well. The leg are long which I like and the grippers work well.
