The MENS CORE BIB SHORTS Bib shorts dark navycream RAPHA are tailored for cyclists who appreciate comfort without sacrificing style. Crafted from a lightweight, breathable fabric blend, these bib shorts offer a snug yet flexible fit that adapts to your movement on long rides.
Key Features and Specifications
The material combines nylon and elastane, providing both durability and stretch. The dark navy and cream colorway adds a subtle, refined look that pairs well with a variety of cycling jerseys. Designed with a medium-length inseam and a flatlock stitching technique, these shorts minimize chafing and enhance comfort.
Designed with an ergonomic cut, the bib straps sit comfortably on the shoulders without digging in, while the back panel is made from a mesh-like fabric to ensure ample ventilation during intense efforts. The chamois pad is strategically placed for added support, reducing pressure on sensitive areas without feeling bulky.
Fit and Care
The fit leans toward a race cut — close to the body but not restrictive. For washing, they recommend cold machine wash with similar colors to maintain fabric integrity and color longevity. Avoid fabric softeners to preserve the technical properties of the materials.
Whether tackling hilly terrain or spinning on a flat route, these bib shorts provide enough compression and comfort to keep fatigue at bay.
