Santic Men's Cycling Bib Shorts with Padded Chamois & Pockets - Breathable Bike Shorts for Road & Mountain Biking - Perfect for Training, Racing & Long Distance Cycling

I spent a while researching "cheap" amazon bib shorts before I bought these because I know from experience that buying off-brand here can be risky. Thankfully, these shorts are worth every penny (and then some).Fit: I'm 5'10", 170lbs, 31 waist with some thicc ol' thighs. I went with the medium and think I made the right choice. Everything fits perfect except for the non-slip thigh bands. They're a little tight now but I'm sure they'll stretch a little over time. If I had ordered large, I think the shoulder straps and torso would have been too loose.Material: super stretchy and opaque, absorbs sweat and breathes well during ride, dries out quickly. Seams are solid and hold up to pulling/stretching.Saddle: This is the only place where I can find a meaningful difference between spending $40 and spending $120 on bike shorts. The saddle in these shorts isn't bad, but it sure ain't Pearl Izumi. It's foam, not gel, but it's got good definition/firmness and seems to be located in all the right spots. I'm not a fan of overly squishy butt pads - this one passed the test.Pocket: fantastic extra feature. Holds my iPhone X in place even at high cadence.Need I say more? These shorts are great. If you're on the fence, this is your sign to buy them.
