Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very convenient and comfortable! My favourite pair Love these shorts. Perfectly padded and the mesh pockets are invaluable, especially if you have shoulder issues like me. Love them for indoor workouts too - means you can stash some food for longer rides and wear a looser fitting top. The only downside is that they will wear out eventually - where the fabric will start to peel (although not yet transparent, thankfully!). I've been wearing mine about once a week on average and they were reasonably worn after two years. Picked up a new pair for riding with other people, but I'll keep using the worn one when riding indoors at home!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Unfortunately, not for me. Excellent quality product and materials. The shortcomings are fit and construction related. The waist is so high it is constrictive and uncomfortable. At first I attributed that to me being accustomed to the fit and feel bibs. I have had several Rapha bibs over the years and still do and LOVE them). However, I have other shorts (Pearl Izumi, even Canari) which are quite comfortable. I returned them (which Rapha graciously made easy). I will likely be ordering Rapha bibs instead.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great but waste sits an inch or so too high I was happy to see that Rapha has finally released shorts for those that prefer vs bib type shorts. Fit was great except that the waist goes up unusually high. Folding the waistband over itself so me gets to a more normal waste height and that is what I end up doing. If it were not for this, they would be perfect in my opinion. Good quality and the cargo pockets are unexpected quite handy when making stops and needing somewhere to stash something for quick storage/retrieval.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Best shorts out there.. Get the Bib! The shorts are excellent quality. attention to detail is apparent in the waist adhesives as well as the thigh to hold everything in place during riding. I gave this 4 stars bc the Bib is necessary for long distance rides.. this will do for less than 30mi (for me at least) but after that there is no adhesive technology that will hold these shorts in place

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Comfortable Really comfortable. Like the touch with the internal coat hanger lapels. Great to prolong the chamois.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Not the quality I was expecting I just used this item 4-5 times and the seams already started to unravel. Very disappointed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great shorts! Happy I took the chance with them Sweet! You can pick like 8 muesli bars PER SIDE in these bad boys. Super comfy. I did have to get a large though (171cm tall, small waist, beefy legs) and they wear like.. High waisted? All the same to me. I've been wearing them for nearly 10 days straight on the munda biddi, doing 100km days and they've been perfect. (don't worry there was a wash or two in there)

Hello i am looking for a SHORT for ULTRA LONG DISTANCE need high comfort witch model do you recommand ?

Asked by: DAMLS
Any of our cycling shorts and bibs are suitable for long distance rides as far as comfort goes. We do recommend the Cargo Bibs, however, due to the fact that they have extra pockets for long distance rides.
