Utility Bib Shorts
Our most technically advanced Bib Shorts to date
- State of the art Swiss fabric for extreme durability
- Italian-made chamois suited for long distance rides
- Perfect balance between compression and comfort
Constructed from two types of fabric:
Side panels: 80% Polyamide / 20% Elastane
Inner panels: 66% Polyamide / 34% Elastane
- Constructed from two types of Schoeller® Swiss elastic fabrics.
- Treated with Colblack® finish to keep cool even when exposed under direct sunlight.
- Additionally treated with DWR finish to repel water and dirt when conditions change suddenly for the worse
- Both fabrics are very densely knitted in order to increase resistance to abrasion. On top of that, a ceramic coating is applied in specifically selected panels to enhance protection in case of hitting the tarmac.
- The compression and comfort of the bibs are balanced for maximum performance without causing pressure points or discomfort.
- Italian made chamois is thick in all the right places. Besides its exceptional breathability thanks to state of the art combination of Airmesh filling and carbon yarns added to its backing, the chamois features ventilation area at the front.
- Extra storage compartments on the back side of the suspenders.
- Numerous hi-vis features for safe riding in limited light conditions
- Wide tape on the bottom with right amount of hypoallergenic silicone to keep the bib short in the right place without needing to readjust.
- We used perforated reflective fabric on the area at the back of the thighs to enhance visibility and at the same time not to compromise performance and breathability
- Slightly longer fit.
In addition to the new Utility Jersey, we have developed our Utility shorts which we have designed to be tough enough and comfortable enough to carry you through the longest, hardest rides. Offering the perfect amount of compression to mix performance and comfort, and treated to repel water and grit, these are bibs that will protect you through unpredictable spring and summer riding conditions.

Extremely comfortable.

I am writing a second review about this amazing bib short, The DWR coating is brilliant. Chamois is truly class apart. During my recent trip in Himalaya mountain after couple of washes in span of 9 day. The large reflective at back are great however I noticed the reflective strip faded on elastic i.e on lower hem. Overall this is a fantastic bib short.
Expensive? Yes. Best? Definitely

Hands down the best bibs I've ever had. By far. Yes, they are expensive but the comfort and the feeling during longer rides in unparalleled to anything I've worn before. They work great with my Tune Speedneedle seat (which has no padding). If you want that extra spoiling piece in your quiver, go and justify the purchase, you will not regret it.
Excellent bibs for endurance
James White, United States, 1.8.2018
I bought these after being pleased with the quality of Isadore’s Climbers Bibs. These have a different feel and are made for cooler and wetter weather, as the materials are more robust and are treated to resist water and the chamois is more substantial–not unexpected for bibshorts designed for endurance riding. They are not too heavy for mid-summer riding, but will be perfect for spring and autumn. I don’t notice the seams, suspenders or leg grippers while riding, which is a plus. A small complaint is the reflective leg grippers, which aren’t aligned exactly and look vulnerable to coming undone. But giving 5 stars until that happens. As testament to the comfort, I purposely used these bibs while breaking in a new Brooks saddle and have experienced no discomfort during the process. Another quality product I intend to use during brevet season. Size L fits my 5'-9" frame and 33" waist. I have grown to like the cut of Isadore’s bibs, as the long legs protect from the sun.

A verri, very good product for the long rides: comfortable, useful, soft inboxed the approach with the saddle. I've been on the bike eight and more hours, and I felt like i was seated on my home sofa. If you want to go far, buy it
Best bib shorts till date.

The utility bib short has raised the benchmark. Amazing fabric - feel and quality, smart pocket on back, extremely comfortable chamois and reflective strips on right places for safety. Brilliant.
Super Hose
Ewald Hochmeister, Austria, 7.6.2018
Die UtilityBib ist meine 2 Isadore Bib neben der Thermo Roubaix. Ist eine perfekte Hose, toller Schnitt, wertige Materialien, Super Polster, gute Länge. Trage bei 186cm und 93kg L. Passt perfekt. Einziger winziger Kritikpunkt ist, dass man am Rücken die Tasche (Näht) minmimal spürt. Ist aber kein Problem.

Super Hose in hervorragender Qualität. Hat bei einer Regenausfahrt einen Sturz ohne Schaden überstanden und meinen Oberschenkel vor Abschürfungen bewahrt. Top Produkt
Great bib-shorts for long rides under harsh/rainy conditions
Maurus, 12.7.2018
Happy with quality and design of shorts (outer fabric/chamois). Extremely water repellent. Had some great >7h rides in Eastern Europe, France and Switzerland in summer, also with heavy rain showers. Size S fits perfect ectly for me, 175cm/63kg.
Not great for the price.
glenn sullivan, Australia, 29.1.2019
Not a huge fan of these to be honest. The chamois is really good but the feel of the material is very "plastic" like and doesn't hug the body like high end paneled bibs. They tend to bunch around the groin/leg area and don't "fit" well at all. I'm 85kg, 6ft tall and have the large. Size is correct but VERY long in the leg with the ends being a bit loose. Unlike every other piece of Isadore kit, I wouldn't buy these again and much prefer my Assos, Giordana and Rapha knicks over these.
