Lusso Comfort Break Bibshorts
£100.00

Lusso's Comfort Break Bibshorts are designed to make mid-ride pit stops easy for women. Lusso has nailed it with its no-fuss, no-clasp design, which is as pleasant to wear on the bike as it is easy to pee in. These bib shorts are light, comfortable and feel like a second skin, a winner all round.

The best thing you can say about bib shorts is that you don't notice wearing them. Lusso's lightweight, breathable design manages to fit cleanly without digging in.

The 4cm-wide straps are a joy to wear as they spread pressure evenly, and are well-positioned to fit around even larger boobs without compressing in the wrong places. Even on longer rides, the straps are unnoticeable, yet keep enough tension to avoid any concerns about the shorts riding down.

Its patented EasyPeesy bib top comprises two light but super stretchy braces which enable you to simply pull down the shorts at the back, squat, go, and then... go. Broadly similar in design are the Velocio Women's Ultralight Bib Short, but Lusso's come in at nearly £70 less.

Lusso has ditched sewn-in legbands in favour of an inch and a half of integrated silicone gripper. The result is a smooth finish that stays put nicely.

Chamois choice is always a hugely personal affair, but Lusso has opted for a mix of gel and open cell foam with channels to aid ventilation. The pad isn't too bulky in use and provides a good degree of support.

Overall, these shorts are excellent. As regards being easy to pee in, they perform perfectly, the overall comfort level is high, and they're good value to boot.
