Description
Bib shorts for high temperatures
Designed for hot and humid conditions, in a super lightweight fabric, our Souplesse Flyweight Bib Shorts feature the same shaping and fit as the new Souplesse Bib Shorts II.
High-wicking and fast drying, the fabric is featherlight and gives the impression of being barely there, yet still offers excellent coverage.
Cut and shaped to sit perfectly on your legs in the on-bike position, we’ve eliminated unnecessary seams, streamlined the fit and removed excess fabric to avoid fabric bunching at the hip. A new, low profile and lightweight gripper gives a supportive but not overly-tight fit at the thigh.
The transparent mesh upper is incredibly light and features high-stretch bonded trims to eliminate chafing, rubbing and hot spots, without compromising on fit.
Details includes reflective logo and reflective tabs on the legs and a signature Souplesse centre back stripe.

Perfect Snuggly Fit
I purchased these bib shorts because I absolutely LOVE my other pair of Rapha bibs. These were slightly different in the fit then the others I own but I love the differences. They are more fitted through the hips with smoother lines. Same great saddle pad, a huge reason I love these shorts. Long rides are no problem in these. The length of the short is also slightly longer, which may have been noted, but I didn't realize it until I got them on. Again, no problems there. I am 5'9, 130 and the small fits perfectly.

Sizing issues.
I have a pair of these shorts already and love them. However, I have returned these for exchange as they appear to be considerably smaller than my existing pair - I couldn’t pull them further than my thighs. A bit frustrating as I am the same size as when I bought the last ones.

Souplesse Flyweight Bibs
Very happy with size and cut, they are so comfortable and light, have only done long rides with them, they just move with you, fabric feels great. Have just ordered another pair

Very small fit
Bought thiese for cycling in Spain as find the classic shorts too warm. Bought a pair in black/pink and black/white. The black/ white medium , fit fine (I am size 10- but don't like my shorts too tight). The black/ pink in the same sixe ( med) were way smaller. I exchanged for a large, which to be honest were no different.
Don't understand what has happened there Rapha.....

Different fit than regular souplesse bib shorts
I bought them hoping they would fit as well as the souplesse bib shorts I normally wear . They were tighter at the waist and the straps were too close to the boobs

Love love love it
This was my first Rapha bib purchase and I am loving them. Have tried multiple brands in the past. Kept holding off on Rapha because they didn’t have anything that offered quick access for nature breaks, but I love these bibs so much, I don’t even mind. These are very lightweight and breathable. The chamois is what really stands out for me though. It isn’t very thick and I like that. Sometimes I feel that more padding just leads to more chafing. I was worried at first about the seam where the shorts meet the bib straps, but it ended up being just fine. I never even think about it while riding. I also like that these are a bit longer inseam. As a tall woman it is hard to find bib shorts that don’t end mid thigh. I like a little extra length. Overall, I am thrilled with these shorts.

Comfy, but tight waist band
These bibs are quite comfy in terms of the chamois fit, straps and legs. What I find very uncomfortable is how tight (not as stretchy) the seam between the top and the bottom is. While riding I found it hard to breathe in. I feel like it needs to be just a cm or two wider at the waist or feature a more elastic type of seam. I’ve risen in a number of other bibs, including Rapha, and haven’t experienced this issue in any of them. Hope that made sense!

How do these fit compared to the Classic Bib Shorts? If I take a small in the Classic Bib Shorts, I would I also wear a small for the Souplesse bib shorts? The measurements seem the same but I know the Souplesse line is more of a race fit.
The classic is a relaxed, all day fit. The souplesse is a tighter more race fit. I might be worth going up a size.

How does the length from crotch to top of straps vary in sizes?
Hi, the length will only vary from one size to another at approximately 1.5cm bigger all over. Any reference to leg length is specific to length and will not add any length to the straps themselves.

Should you wear underwear under bib shorts?
Hi, it is not advisable to wear underwear under bib shorts as you need to minimise any friction possibility in order to maximise comfort. Just use a good chamois cream, applied to the skin prior to placing our shorts on.

what color is the Rapha logo on the pink bib shorts?
Hi, the logos on the leg usually match the top half, in this case it is the standard one leg black logo and the other in this case in the pink. The Pink logo is on the left hand side.
