C3 Bib Short+
Gore Wear created the Men's C3 Bib Shorts+ for the weekend warriors desiring the best attributes of straightforward style, riding functionality, and plush support, but without requiring you to shell out big bucks to do so.
They're made with a functional mixture of muscle-supporting fabric, breathable mesh bibs, and an Active Various chamois to absorb excess vibration and relieve pressure from sensitive tissue areas. Gore then optimizes seam placement to eliminate irritation and scratchiness inherent to cheaper, poorly designed bib shorts. Additionally, you'll find a reflective logo that pops in low-light conditions, so you'll have greater visibility when you're finishing up after dark.

Fits to size
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
I have worn C3 bibs before and these are similar but not exactly the same. Overall they are comfortable and I expect them to wear for a long time as my other three pairs of Gore bibs have. The only thing that has changed is the front panel is now taller which interferes with my ability to pull down to pee. The older shorts were not that way.

I order this and first the size runs a little large, I ordered a Large and find it quite loose for my taste. Although the material is good but to my liking it almost see thru, I don't like bibs like that, the fabric is too fine, I have less expensive bibs made from a more though fabric. The chamois is really confortable, it feels very nice for 2 to 3 hour riding.

Deceptive Sizing
- Familiarity:
- I returned this product before using it
Order XXL, they sent me XL. If you push the XXL button, they send you EU sizing of XXL, which is really and XL in the US. Wow! Last time I order from these guys.

Very Nice

Stitching is very nice which you would expect at this price point. The pad it great although I am not sure that it is any better than some of the cheaper knockoffs. The overall longevity of the garment I think will be good based on the construction. Fit is perfect.
