How should bib shorts fit?

Bib shorts should fit snugly against your body without wrinkles, bunching, or excess fabric. The chamois should align perfectly with your sit bones when in riding position. Leg grippers should stay in place without cutting into thighs or sliding up. Bib straps should provide gentle support without digging into shoulders. When standing, bib shorts may feel slightly tight - this is normal, as they're designed for riding position. Italian brands (Santini, Sportful, Northwave) run smaller than British brands (Rapha), so check size charts carefully for bib shorts. If between sizes, consider your body type - athletic builds may prefer smaller size for compression, while those with larger thighs may need to size up in bib shorts.

What's the difference between expensive and budget bib shorts?

Premium bib shorts from Rapha, Maap, Pas Normal Studios, and Assos feature Italian-made multi-density chamois with superior padding, graduated compression fabrics that improve circulation and reduce fatigue, seamless or flatlock construction that prevents chafing, high-quality fabrics that last longer and maintain compression, and advanced moisture-wicking technology. Budget bib shorts from Pearl Izumi, Monton, and Gist offer good value with simpler chamois designs, basic compression fabrics, and standard construction. For riders logging 100+ km weekly, premium bib shorts are worth the investment for comfort and durability. For occasional riders, mid-range bib shorts from Pearl Izumi or Sportful offer excellent balance of quality and value.
