Excellent product
Well designed winter tights! Warm and breathes well, water resistant, very comfortable kit that is allowing us to continue exploring bicycle adventures through the winter. Good leg length and fitting but the medium size fits a little too snug/tight in the groin, might try a large next time

Best I ever worn, Basta.
I have ridden with many different brands and models of bib tights. But Rapha Pro team bibs/bib tights are my " go to " every time.
They are warm, wind tight, water resistant, fits good and long lasting.
I use them fall, winter and spring here in Denmark, where the weather can be foul.

Beat the cold and wet
An urgent impulse online buy after an almost hypothermic ride in cold and wet. I have not had chance to put the tights through their paces in such challenging conditions yet, but they arrived quickly and fit really well. They feel very luxurious, supportive and snug fitting, but with plenty of flexibility to get the job done. Very glad to have them in my armoury!

Great bibtights
Great bibtights for winter riding. The legs don't get cold very quickly, so warmth wise they are good enough for winter, and to me also usable for autumn or early spring. The pad is excellent. Bought size L (I'm 1m75 - 72 kg) and they fit well without constricting, just a bit long for my size. I usually buy M but sized up for these. Only minor comment: the white logo is too big, this could have been solved in a more elegant way (like the classic tights) to fit with the general stylish ways of Rapha.

My Go-To Winter Tights
These have become my go-to fall/winter tights. They are warm down into the 30's (Farenheit) and they are incredibly comfortable. The chamois pad is also the best I've used. In the past, I've worn Assos winter tights and I like these more.

Excellent
Personally I like these better than the cargo tight, haven't had the classic. They're not as comfortable going on as the cargo tights but I prefer them for riding and the overall fit is better for me (closer maybe a bit shorter leg).

Feels good and it works for cold days, but...
I'm 179cm with very slim hips, my size in bib shorts is long XS, but decided to size up on the tights because the material is different and doesn't stretch as much, so ordered the S and when I first worn it, felt good, the fit is good, and I would probably also be ok with the XS and even though I can see a bit of looseness on the side of my hips, I decided to keep this size. Did two rides with it, around 220km total, one ride was in bellow 0 degrees and it performed amazing, no cold whatsoever. Unfortunately it feels uncomfortable on on the knees, it kinda constricts the movements and sometimes its annoying. And for last, the stitching on the side of the legs is falling off... a lot. Hopefully rapha support will help me on the last one. Still... is a bit disappointing considering the price.

Great Comfort; POOR Durability
Amazing tights, but poor overall durability. The fit and chamois are excellent and preferred among my multiple winter tights. The front panel DWR is great, and provide comfort down to temps of -10c. HOWEVER, the quality of the stitching is VERY poor. I have had multiple issues w/ the stitching after minor usage; it has unraveled at both the ankle & mid-thigh. Additionally, the shoulder strap elastics stretched and frayed after first wear. Overall, I cannot recommend these based on durability.

Good, but not sure how much use they’ll get
Really nice fit and feel high quality. For reference, I am 177cm tall, 66kg and always go a small in pro team gear. Unusual fabric on the outside, almost feels like a wetsuit but appears hard wearing. But here’s the problem I have with Rapha winter gear, I live in Melbourne, Aust and while it can be very cold in the morning, I’m not sure I’ll get a lot of use out of these as they are heavy duty winter bibs. It would be good if Rapha could put a temperature guide on the website for winter gear. I feel like I have spent a fortune on winter kit only to have gear that is suitable for 0 degrees or 12-15 degrees with nothing in between. It makes buying a guessing game, anyway, just my two cents worth. Think I’ll stick with MAAP for Aussie winters, they seem to have kit that is more versatile for winter.

Excellent Upgrade
Another quality product; best aspect for me is the pad which is flatter than previous models and just as comfortable; cold and cold winds unnoticeable.

Underwhelmed
Overall these are good winter tights but for the cost I expect much better. Would have been nice if leg length was selectable as these are a bit long. Having a zipper at bottom of leg also would have been preferable for getting on and off and putting, changing socks without having to take completely off.
Assos padding is more comfortable but these are 2nd best. They are warm and other sizing was good.

High-end Wintertights
Finishing/Comfort:
Beautiful fabricated and finished product from luxurious materials. It lives up to my expectations.
Great pad! i'm always very critical about the pad, but this one is realy comfy and doesn't feel like a thick Pamper.
I've rode it for about 4,5 hours /100km on my MTB, and the pad was still very comfy.
A week later i rode in the freezing cold -5 degree celcius for 3 hours on my MTB, and it was perfect. Never a cold or too warm moment at this low temprature conditions.
Fit:
I've orderd size M which fits pretty (pro)tight, but not too tight or too small. I'm 1,78m tall and weigh between 68kg(summer) and max. 72kg(winter). My inseam is 81cm.
Ordering:
I've ordered my products in the very busy week between chrismas and newyear, in the lockdown COVID period and still received it within two weeks in the Netherlands.

Pro bibs are awesome
Ummm..... literally the best... we all know Rapha gets a bad wrap for being the pretty boy equivalent of biking clothes. But truth be told their quality and price are tough to beat. I have to say I know plenty of people that love to hate on rapha but I have nothing bad to say about the products I have purchased. These pro bibs are great, keeps you warm and dry in cooler and damp conditions. They aren’t great in the rain but otherwise they did great.

Extremely comfortable
I bought these and the Classic Winter tights with the intent to return one based on fit. I loved them so much I kept them both. Super comfortable all around. I can take the Classic's down to around 22F. And then I'll switch to wear these into the low teens in Detroit MI (which is cold considering the wind). The compression feels great and it's a hardy material so I don't have to worry about wetness, grime etc. I feel spoiled with these.

I would highly recommend!!!!
These tights kept my legs warm during a very windy day, 42km ride, about zero degrees. I am very happy with this item, as I was hesitant at first spending alot of money on it. It is worth it and I cant wait to buy another pair when it goes on sale again. One downside is the leg length is a bit long. I am 5’8 and a half tall, 150lbs, about 0.5 inch-1inch longer than I would like but I was able to hide the extra length under my socks.

Great fit. Warm, comfortable, & added compression
Excellent compression fit! I was a bit nervous ordering a Large (6'2, 33/34" waist), but the size is perfect. Keeps in heat all the way below freezing. Need a little embro at the 23F mark, but what wouldn't at that temp?! Bibs appear to be very well constructed and the fit is very comfortable. Road these straight through Festive500 2020 and continue to put 'em on each following Sat and Sun. Highly recommended for winter riding.

My new favourite
Prior to this pair of tights, I only owned one pair of tights from another brand. Don’t like wearing tights coz they’re not as versatile and comfortable as wearing legs warmers with thermal bibs. However, since trying on these new Pro Team tights (recommended by a brand ambassador), I look forward to colder mornings to put them on. They are comfortable, warm and water resistant (with the DMR water propellant).

The Best got Better!
This tops any previous Rapha tights or shorts for comfort of the pad. I can now ride every day for 3+ hours with absolutely no saddle rash. Same Rapha quality that I'm used to: Fit, finish, comfort, style are all 5 Star. New shoulder straps are now single-band elastic rather that fabric, which is more secure and comfortable for me. I'm ordering another pair because it is such an awesome part of my kit!

Great and warm BUT ! Comes smaller than expected!
wind and cold proof. Tested at 4* Celcius and windy conditions.
Even tho there is not much padding (just by looking at it) on knees i feel they are protected from cold. There is only one negative aspect i can find and that is they are very "slippery" and i fidn moving on my seat more than with usuall bibs.

Nice for cold weather rides
These tights are warm but I should have ordered a Large vs Extra Large. I'm 5' 10" with a stocky build and these are just slightly longer than I need.
This leaves the crotch area with too much room and the jewels are moving around too much. I have to wear a pair of cycling shorts underneath to fix this issue.
All-in-all, these are soo nice for cold weather!!

Great material but poor stitching
Very comfortable material. Warm and waterproof.
Big issue which led me to return (twice) my order is the stitching which is very thick and irritating between legs. Thought it was a flaw on the first but was the same on second.
(+ Royal Mail package return not delivered in 40 days, still waiting on the refund...). Love all my Rapha gear, first bad experience.

Cozy winter shielding that keeps you out there
These are most excellent! The fit is on point, they're cozy in the cold, and excellent at keeping the wind off of your legs. What more is there to say when something works this well? I feel like these are a definite win. Have not used them in a real downpour so I can't speak to that...just drizzles and sprinkles...and they seem to work well through that.

Stay warm, keep riding.
Very well made and comfortable. Runs on the small side, but I kept my norm bib sizing. I normally wear Rapha large, I got these in large and they’re snug but not too small. If you were in between L and XL you may need to size up. Have used even when the temperature crept up to almost 70 and didn’t overheat (although I wouldn’t recommend planning for that).

Look great, quality not so great
I really love Rapha's style, but the quality of the tights and shorts isn't great. I sent these back after one 20 mile ride as a hole appeared in the seat. I have many other Rapha shorts and tights and all have holes (in different places), but none appeared after just one ride. Very disappointed to have to find a different brand as I like Rapha very much.
