Good set of bibs
I use these primarily on the MTB under a set of baggies. This is most likely not their intended use, but here's my .02$.The fit is good: on the racier side so there is a bit of compression. if you don't prefer a race fit type of short, these aren't for you. The rear pockets are what drew me to these as typically with an MTB jersey, there aren't a set of pockets in back. The pockets are nice as they will fit a bottle, snacks and a zippered pocket for keys etc. The legs are longer than a set of true liner bibs which isn't a bad thing. If you run knee pads, these will span the area so there's no gaper gap.What would make it better:I also have a set of their better bib shorts for the road. The chamois is nice in these but the green one in their premium short is better. Since it's the dead of winter here, the breathability of the material isn't an issue but if they made the main body of the short more meshy (basically, if they just put pockets on their good shorts and made them single layer mesh) they would have a winner on their hands.I have a set of Raceface liner bibs and the material is very thin and meshy (since they will be worn under a set of shorts), better pad similar to their premium pad, no pockets and terrible shoulder straps. They also cost twice as much. Even in current form, I believe these bibs are better.These bibs are hard to beat and fault for the price. If you are a gravel person, they're pretty good. For MTB to be used as a liner, they're good but with some tweaks they'd be even better.Hope this helps.

Surprised in a good way
I purchased these because of the color. I am tired of the standard black bibs. I had never heard of this brand and for the price I thought, why not. Overall the feel of the fabric is nice. The pad is stitched in well and I have no strange pinching or rubbing. The straps are wide and fit well over my shoulders. The leg grippers are not super aggressive and my ride up or move after a number of miles, time will tell. Overall first impressions are good for the price. I am a casual weekend rider and these do the trick. I love that they offer other colors than black. Sizing was spot on for the chart listed. I sized up one size from my usual size. I like the Zipper pocket on the back to keep some money in without worry it will fall out. I will be picking up another pair soon.

Comfortable, unsure of long term durability
I've had a few different pairs of cycling shorts over the years, and the chamois in this one provides some great padding. It seems like it comes up a bit far in the front, but is not uncomfortable in the saddle. Fit is great for me - an XL is perfect at 6'1, 165lbs, 32 waist. The leg grippers are very comfortable, but after a few months they seem like they're getting a bit stretched out and are loose at the very bottom. They still hold, but not sure for how long. Pockets are awesome, back isn't super ventilated with the extra material however.

Good value but not without compromise
For the price they are outstanding but they are not "as good as bibs 3x the cost" as some will say.Pros- Inexpensive- Seem to be holding up- Chamois is SCARY thick (it's not supposed to be "padding") but actually works OK for me without bunching.- Atypical cut works well (not typical 8 or 10 panel design but feels fine).- Bib upper/straps seem well made. Straps are wide and comfortable.Cons- Fabric has NO wicking capability. In some cases, when humid, removing them feels like taking off a wet bathing suit. The lack of wicking may also be a real issue as cooler weather sets in.- No grippers (Which seller does clearly state). I need to adjust legs frequently during ride. Really wondering how these will work over knee or leg warmers.So for your average couple hour enthusiast ride or to trash on a trainer in basement these appear to be great value. Let's see how they hold up over time and if the "wet bathing suit" thing becomes an issue once it gets cooler.Comfort - 4 starsValue - 5 starsFit - Depends on you. At seller suggestion I ordered a couple sizes and kept what fit.

Great bibs
Great fabric,fit, and the pad is not over thick. They are a great value for the price.

Apparently well-made, but definitely undersized
By the posted size guidelines, these should have fit; unfortunately, they did not. I ordered these along with another pair from a different brand (supposedly a size smaller than these), and the other brand fit perfectly.

Update (see comments)
Usually wear a M but had to go XL due to way to short straps. For the price i should not complain but wanted to like that BIB and a bit disappointed.I Like: The pockets, 2 on the side, 3 in the back with a zipper a winner there.So-so: the Elastic for the bottom of thighs could be better...a bit loose ..Not so good (at least for me): Love the sickness of the Pad, but after a 5hrs ride, the sections circled in red in my attached pic were bothering me. Not sure if is the thick sewing or the pad being too bit and creating a fold.End: Will keep but only for short rides, and maybe MTN rides.Again price is great so not whining just could have been better.Update 02/22: Decided to give another go after a not so good long road ride, this time on 2 consecutive bikepacking 6/7 hrs ride. Fitting was perfect, no chaffing, love the extra pockets, felt great. So on my end that is a keeper for Mountain biking.

Great entry cargo bibs
These bibs are great starter bibs if you don’t know if you’ll want a cargo bib or regular shirts with a pack. They are technically road cargo bibs but I wear them on the trail under MTB pants and jersey without a problem. Supportive and light and the storage is excellent the mesh pockets hold a lot of items securely all day. The back pockets me e feel bulky when full. Styling is nice and size wise I typically wear L but went with a XL after tying these in both sizes. The pad is dense and holds up over miles no problem.

Sizing is accurate!
Sizing reference. XL, 6'1, 170lbs fit is okay, could have been okay with L.Just received and I am impressed. The quality of the materials is nice, not quite as nice as premium brands but will absolutely do the job. Padding is good ample support and sits where it needs to. I think a L would have been perfect for me as the power bands don't quite fit as snug as I would like. But, they are very comfortable lengthwise. Great value for the price would absolutely order another set in the future.

(1 of 3) Solid shorts, not sure about the pockets.
I tested these shorts and the cheapest sundried and didoo shorts and found them to be the most comfortable of the three for all day riding.The padding is firm and strong and covers a large area than previous shorts. They also look good in dark purple, with no logos or decals really affecting the overall appearance.The quality is the highest out of the three, with good stitches and a good snug fit. I felt that the pockets on the side are useful to stick your glasses in when you're going up a hill and you need them out of your hands quickly, and you can keep your phone handy if you're passing through a particularly photogenic section. The pockets on the back contribute to back sweat even when empty and they're located at an irritating point for my back, so I don't use them. Very useful for touring though when I wearing a football jersey or shirt rather than a jersey with pockets. The long pocket has just enough space for a baguette.All in all, with the pockets, comfort and quality I really don't know how much more value you can get out of a more expensive pair. For £30 these are five star without question.

Enfin une juste taille
C'est un véritable problème. Par 2 fois j'ai du renvoyer des cuissards.... Manifestement certains fabricants n'ont pas le compas ds l'œil. En ce qui concerne cet achat, je dirais enfin ça match. Le tissu est très élastique et très agréable. Il y a effectivement de nombreuses poches. Cela étant, à voir dans le temps. En attendant je suis satisfait.
