Comfortable and Well-Made!
Well-fitting shorts with strong stretchy leg enclosure that keep shorts from moving. Solid seat padding. Nice overall quality shorts.

Great fit and comfortable.
Comfortable fit, just a short version of the core bibs. I got these for indoor training and they are perfect for me.

Core shorys
Quality shorts, comfortable and compressive at the same time. Only gripe is the legs are a little on the long side

Not comfortable
Not sure if I have a faulty item but the chamois is not at all comfortable when compared with bib tights.

Shorts too long….and grippy
Whilst I love Rapha kit, these shorts are not the best. In essence the leg is too long, principally due to the knee grips. Trying to get the shorts on in a busy warm gym is a challenge as they grip the knee, you risk ripping the material as you try to pull them up, and it is all such a complicated and unnecessary experience. Making the short shorter( I am circa 6ft wearing a medium short) and lessening the grip at the knee would make this kit so much better…

Too coverage.
I have lots of Rapha kit, it's quality. I bought these shorts for indoor training as bib shorts are too hot. They're OK. Well made. But too long in the leg for indoors and crucially too long in the waist. Rather than sit on my hips if I were to pull them up they would sit high up my stomach. Given their purpose, for me, is indoor riding, this means they give too much fabric coverage and contribute to the over-heating that is symptomatic of indoor riding.

Would not buy again
Though I purchased "Large" (I'm 6', 175) these go on like a corset. And the padding is not adequate and only gets worse as they dampen with sweat (I ride in Houston).

Great Shorts at a Great Price
The core shorts and jersey are outstanding cycling products. The quality and craftsmanship are excellent. The chamois is really comfortable, the leg grippers work great, and I love the higher waistline and wide waistband (sucks in my gut, ha ha). I used to think Rapha was overpriced, but the core product line is cheaper than the PI competition, and better quality. The high Rapha line is even more awesome. I love Rapha.

Not what I expected
I waited for them to come back in stock given all the positive reviews, but was disappointed. The chamois is really thick and tends to bunch up to the point that I feel like I'm wearing a diaper. Finish and quality of materials is nice, but I have less expensive shorts from competitors. A lot of cyclists love them, so guessing it's just me. Since they don't chafe, I use them when I have a short ride so they're not wasted.

My favorite trainer shorts
Fantastic shorts! Comfortable chamois, awesome flat grips on the thighs. I would absolutely buy again. Black bibs which is a tremendous value is a close second for the money but the Rapha core are my favorite value trainer shorts. You could argue that the Rapha, Coeur, or Assos have a better short or bib but the price tag also reflects that. This is a value short for my indoor trainer rides and they are great.

A class act.
I needed a pair of quality cycling shorts after using B-Twin shorts for a few years, and I chose Rapha because of their reputation and subtle branding. I don't regret my choice in the slightest. What I would like to see is a wider range of sizes. As a 1.90m tall man, I normally wear XL in other brands, but only the XXL fit me properly in Rapha, so you may have to take a size larger than you normally do.

Great product but poor grip
My first ever expensive bibs, very comfortable for long rides and training. Washed it for 3-4 times and the leg grip started to expand. Being a loyal Rapha customer I would still buy another pair of bibs hoping this won't happen again.

A Big Pad
Thought I would give this a shot on my MTB rides. Quite glad I did. The padding felt overly thick but obviously protected better and stayed comfortable during all my 1-2hrs rides. The sticky silicone inner beads at the thighs make it hard to pull these up but you’ll just have to wiggle it. It gets hot here in Singapore but these dried out quick. Took an M size at 174cm 32” and it felt right on cue.

Amazing shorts, but they do roll down
Great fit and feel. Very comfortable. Pad is amazing, have not been uncomfortable with these shorts yet. Fit almost exactly as expected. Only problem I have experienced is that they roll down at the waist causing bunching which can be uncomfortable and needs adjusting as the ride goes on. Bib shorts much better, but these are a suitable alternative if you are not a fan of the shoulder straps.

Amazing fit. I love all the little details such as tiny straps to help hang the shorts when they are drying. Good quality. Have been using them a lot and the padding is very comfortable.

Purchased for Zwifting
Very smart and good quality shorts. I them purchased to stay a little cooler while Zwifting and because of a substantial pad as sitting in one position while Zwifting can get painful. Only small question would be that the pad seems to be a little too far "forward" so feels as it it is slipping ahead of the sit bones, but actually it doesn't but an odd sensation nevertheless.

The only shorts I will wear
Comfortable. I bike 20 to 200 miles a day, 6 days a week and this chamois is by far the best at preventing saddle sores of any. Shorts, rather than bibs, make taking care of business while racing ultras much easier and faster. Only down side is I have had issues with the stretch in the fabric giving out over time, but each pair is washed a couple times a week

Great shorts but...
Overall, those are great shorts. I was on the fence between these or the bibs, but found the fit generally near perfect, despite the slightly long inseam, they feel very durable and comfortable overall... except for the chamois, that creates a slight discomfort in some of the critical areas during longer rides. or maybe they are still breaking in?

My best buy all year
I had hitherto used cheaper padded shorts and suffered with quite horrible chaffing... more fool me. These though have completely transformed my riding -- 300km (longest thus far) and no chaffing. Night and day then. If you too have been suffering in the bottom bracket dept., stump up, or drop Christmas hints!

Very comfy shorts, excellent quality and style
These are very comfortable and stylish shorts, quality is fantastic. The only reason these didn’t get a 5 star rating is the leg length which is a few millimeter’s too long which catches on the inside of my knee, it could be my short legs. A little bit of extra time pulling works thanks to the very grippy seam.

As good as bibshorts
A good pair of shorts. Been for a couple of six hour rides and very impressed, as many reviews reckon they aren't as good as bibshorts, but I disagree and far more convenient. The only slightly negative aspect was that they take a couple of minutes to regain comfort after a stop. Well worth the investment

Good product, not so good import duty tax
The model is good, the material is premium, the padding not as thick as expected. Started to feel some discomfort after 2 hours of riding (173cm/66kg). The price is ok, actually. What put me off was I had to pay some import duty/tax that's almost half the price of the short for shipping to Indonesia.

Zwift friendly comfy padded shorts
I tend to do a lot of Zwift riding and wanted a good alternative to my bib shorts that I can put on quickly and are comfortable for 30-100km on the indoor trainer. These do the job nicely and I've just ordered a second pair.
They don't drop or ride up, they are comfortable and look good.

Mixed results
These shorts do a good job of keeping my butt comfortable on a Brooks saddle but there’s a downside. After a 30 mile ride yesterday and I have a rash on both thighs from the grip tape at the bottom of the shorts. Could be allergic, could be the roughness against the skin, I don’t know.
