USE SIMPLE DETERGENTS WITH NO ADDITIVES Never use detergents with fabric softeners, perfumes or any additive type product. The general rule of thumb is the simpler the better. Many detergents with additives leave "surfactants" behind on a fabric's fibers that inhibit the technical performance. Typically the best detergents to use will have "Clear" or "Free" in their names. Don't pour the detergent directly onto the clothing, put it in the washer first, when you start the water. If something is not functionally working, but is not dirty, try rinsing it twice in warm to hot water. This will help get rid of the harmful surfactants. READ THE CONTENT CARE LABEL: On the inside of your garment, or on the hangcard, there are instructions for the care of that individual piece. On garments this will be on a side seam or back seam label. Follow those directions. On finer fabrics, use a "Gentle" cycle. Close all zippers, attach "hook and loop" closures on gloves YOU CAN USE THE DRYER, CAREFULLY: If you use a dryer be sure to use a lower / warm heat setting (Do NOT use a commercial dryer or a "Hot" setting). This will often restore the fabric and help the water and wind repellent qualities. If in doubt, hang the clothing to dry.
FAQs
The Women’s PRO Bib Shorts are premium women’s cycling bib shorts built for serious road riders who want elite chamois comfort, compressive support, and a locked-in fit for long miles, hard efforts, and high-output training.
- What type of rider are the Women’s PRO Bib Shorts built for?
The Women’s PRO Bib Shorts are built for road cyclists who want a secure, high-performance fit for training rides, fast group rides, fondos, endurance miles, and demanding days in the saddle. Newer riders will notice the step up in comfort and support; experienced cyclists will feel the difference in compression, chamois quality, and bib stability. - What makes these different from basic women’s cycling shorts?
These are performance cycling bib shorts, not entry-level padded shorts. They use luxurious Italian PRO Transfer fabric for smooth compression and support, a women’s PRO Levitate chamois for premium ride comfort, and laser-cut raw-edge leg hems for a clean transition against the skin. The goal is simple: less bulk, less movement, more focus. - What chamois do the Women’s PRO Bib Shorts use?
They feature PEARL iZUMi’s women’s PRO Levitate chamois, a premium pad designed to reduce friction, support sit bones, and improve comfort during long rides. For cyclists, the chamois is the engine room of any bib short. It helps manage pressure, vibration, and repeated pedaling motion so you can stay settled in the saddle longer. - Are these good women’s cycling bib shorts for long rides?
Yes. The Women’s PRO Bib Shorts are built for high-mileage road riding, where chamois comfort, stable fit, and compression matter most. The premium fabric supports the legs without feeling sloppy, while the bib construction keeps the short in place without relying on a waistband. For long days, that locked-in feel is the point. - How does the drop-tail design work?
The women’s drop-tail design is built for easier nature breaks without removing your jersey or outer layers. It allows the back of the bib to pull down when needed, then return to position for riding. Compared to traditional bib designs, this makes long rides, races, and remote stops much less complicated. - How do these compare to the Women’s PRO Shorts?
The Women’s PRO Bib Shorts offer the most secure, locked-in fit because the bib upper keeps everything anchored without a waistband. Compared to the Women’s PRO Shorts, they are better for riders who want maximum stability and less waist pressure. The PRO Shorts are the better choice if you prefer a non-bib design or easier on-off convenience. - What do the laser-cut straps and leg hems do?
Laser-cut straps and raw-edge leg hems reduce bulk and create a smoother feel against the body. The straps lie flatter under a jersey, while the leg openings sit cleanly against the skin without a heavy stitched edge. On long rides, those small construction details help reduce distractions. - What is the inseam length?
The Women’s PRO Bib Shorts have an 8.5" inseam. That gives them a modern road cycling length with enough coverage for support and comfort while maintaining a streamlined performance profile. - How do these compare to the Women’s Attack Bib Shorts or Women’s Quest Bib Shorts?
The Women’s PRO Bib Shorts are the more premium, performance-driven option. Compared to the Women’s Attack Bib Shorts, they step up with PRO-level fabric, a PRO Levitate chamois, and more refined construction. Compared to the Women’s Quest Bib Shorts, they are more compressive, more technical, and better suited to longer, faster road rides. Attack is strong everyday performance; Quest is accessible comfort; PRO is built for the rider who wants the most dialed bib short in the line. - What should I wear with the Women’s PRO Bib Shorts?
Pair them with the Women’s PRO Jersey for a full premium road kit. For hot rides, consider the Women’s PRO Mesh Jersey. For changing conditions, layer with the Women’s PRO Barrier Vest or Women’s PRO Barrier Jacket. Reflective elements are included to help improve low-light visibility during early starts, late finishes, and variable light.
