Great value bib shorts
I had been riding for a while with regular padded cycling shorts, but decided to try out bib shorts. Not knowing if I would like the bib short style/feel, and having concerns about the fit since I'm a bigger guy, I wanted to go with a cheaper option and go right into $100-200 bibs from the major brands.I have been using these for 3 months now, and don't have any complaints. They fit extremely well, and are comfortable. For comparison, I also bought a pair of Van Rysel Racer 2 bib shorts (XXL), and while they generally fit well, the shoulder straps roll up and dig into my shoulders during longer rides. The Racer 2 bibs were 50% off on a closeout sale and an additional 10% off of the sale price from a coupon, so they were $45, right in the same price range as the Przewalski bibs. The design of the shoulder straps on the Przewalski (XXXL) is much better (at least for me with my current body shape). They do not roll at all or cause any discomfort, even with longer rides.The seat padding of the Van Rysel ribs is perhaps slightly better than the Przewalski bibs, but the shoulder straps are so uncomfortable even after 20-30 minutes, that I just don't wear them. The Van Rysel's were also a bit better in finishing quality, but not by much. The Przewalski bibs had a couple loose threads, but nothing that compromised their use.For less than $50, these bibs are a great value, and I would highly recommend, especially if you don't have the traditional cyclists body.

Good quality but tough sizing
6' 2'', 160 lbs. Originally ordered medium, but exchanged it for a large. The large fits well in the bottom half, though the straps are still shorter than I would like and still pulls on my shoulders and neck after a long ride. The chamois is a little thin, but well positioned and easy on the skin. Stiches and seam quality is good.

Nice Bibs
Great value! I thought these might not be as nice as my $100. + Pearl Izumi and Hincappi bibs. They fit nicely are well made and comfortable. Nice padding too. Will purchase again as they are same quality as $150 brand names.

Affordable and good quality
I ordered these because I was desperate to get some bibs in time for a long ride. Due to timing and budget, I had to order these mens bibs, rather than womens. For reference I am 5'2 & 155#. While the padding in front is a bit skimpy for me, it was adequate for my 40 mile ride. Not surprisingly, the suspenders were too long for my frame, which meant that the shorts rode down on me a bit. While it felt weird, having my shirt over the top secured the suspenders from slipping and the padding stayed in place generally.These comments are in no way a critique of the product, simply meant to inform other women who consider going the same route.These were very affordable and are good quality. I will hand them onto my husband to use in the future and get some designed for women now that I have time to do my research.

Very well made and comfortable
I’ve purchased expensive name brand cycling bib shorts in times past. Tried these several years ago with great satisfaction. This is the third pair I’ve purchased. Will never again purchase cycling bib shorts at four and five times the cost of these. Your mileage may very bit these are very comfortable. I’ve ridden several century and metric century rides with these with no problems over the years and I’m 74 years old. No problem with the chamois or quality of the fabric.

Not as good as their 3D bib
I purchased this one hoping to add to my bib collection. I purchased Przewalski's other bib with the 3D chamois a few years back and those has been holding up well. Sadly, this one does not compare well to that other one.1.) I'm 5'5" 140lbs with a 35" waist and the SMALL seemed a little too small for me. After slipping my legs through the leg opening, the shoulder strap was tight on my shoulders. The crotch had to ride up tight between my legs just for shoulder straps to sit comfortably.2.) The leg opening was a hair too tight for my thighs. I don't blame the design as I naturally do have slightly bigger thighs. The wide leg opening was definitely a plus though which does distribute some of that compression.3.) The chamois is not situated in the right spot. The size of the chamois is fine, but the padded portion is positioned too high up on the upper butt and not by the seat bone. When I sit on my bike seat, the chamois isn't between the seat and my seat bone because it's situated above my butt.4.) As a result of number 3, the crotch part of the chamois sits lower so your manhood is sitting above the chamois and your testicles are covered by the chamois. Another reviewer mentioned that your pubic hair will poke out... I can confirm that is absolutely true. If they would have adjusted the chamois correctly, the padded part would rest by your seat bone and the chamois would cover more of your member, which it should.5.) The material is transparent when stretched. I ordered the black one so it wasn't as noticeable but I would guarantee that under the right lighting with the right color pubic hair, it would be noticeable. Other than that, the material is quite soft and comfortable.Overall, I am returning this one and getting another pair of their 3D one which fits a lot better and more comfortable overall.

Excellent value and comfortable
These are some very good bibs in their pricing range. They fit well, stay in place and are comfortable in every aspect. The grippers keep cold weather leggings in place and the side pockets are super handy. Size XL, I’m 5’-9”, 190#.4 stars from me because it seems they were able to keep these competitively priced by utilizing a fairly ordinary pad. I’d say it’s about a 2-3 hour pad. Rides longer than that I’ve found the padding somewhat compressed and uncomfortable.
