Padding is sewn in poorly and seems to be too big for the size of the shorts so they never feel like they fit right. This causes SUPER uncomfortable bunching and wrinkling to the point that I want to take them off the second they touch my skin. Not to mention how unflattering this looks front the front….basically, save your money!

The fit is great, but the padding is not the best. The padding does not start were it is needed. I also have stitching coming apart.

Love these bibs but they do run large!

There is a lot of padding at the back and a narrow channel of padding in the centre that stops well before the front of the chamois pad. There is also no taper between the various thick and thin padding. Perhaps this is OK for the Mimic saddle but it is a mismatch for me on the SMP saddle that I use. Leg grippers were nice and stayed in place without rubbing off sunscreen. Length was OK but longer is better (less sunscreen and easier to tuck in leg sleeves). Bib straps were ok in that I didn’t get shoulder/neck pain but I could feel the straps (short torso). Mag closure is good. I’ve used it on a couple of rides (60km, 125km). I was hoping for these being a go to for long rides but that is a no.

The chamois is very comfortable. It is also really nice having the magnetic snaps in the back for comfort breaks on long rides. The legs have a slight compression without feeling too tight.

I've been struggling to find a pair of cycling shorts that are comfortable and allow me to ride as long as I want to. I am so pleased with these that I am ordering a second pair.

Already bought a 2nd pair (1st pair was actually a size larger than I usually get but I needed new bibs urgently and my size was not available to try on in my location). The best thing about these is the drop tail feature - Really works! Based on the description, I wasn’t sure if it would be a secure fastener, but it truly is. If you have shoulder flexibility issues it may be a little difficult to reach and reconnect the strap after a pit stop. The pad is also more comfortable than my previous one. I have always worn bibs with a more substantial pad but found this one more comfortable (note: this is my first pair of Specialized bibs). I’m Very happy to have found these bibs.

Disappointed in the short inseam. I like a 9” inseam; these have an 8” inseam. Other than that, they are quality.

Specialized has the most excellent clothing options for cyclists, hands down. I have owned kits in the past from other companies, but they never last or fit as well. The Specialized kit for women fits all the right places -- including the wallet -- and they last forever. I just replaced the previous kit I had repurchased in 2014. The quality is top-notch and the comfort is even better. They stay where they are supposed to (no ride-ups or rubbing). I would highly recommend this!

Love these! I’ve have worn them three times. The fit is great. The chamois holds up well on long rides. And love the grip on the inside seam of the shorts! I will definitely buy these again!
