I don’t know why I have to waste my precious time reviewing this product because the knicks speak for themselves. I’m training for Peaks Challenge and in the past the endurance training has made my crotch as sore as a newly marked lamb. Some say that I had the sorest arse in Darlinghurst. A big call, although very hard to justify.
I’ve used cream, two pairs of knicks, underpants, sitting sideways, getting out of the saddle, Panadol, Jesus and all sorts of assorted new age fluffy slipper type remedies and to no avail.
I saw the add, thinking it was another scam but deciding you may as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb, I bought a pair.
They worked. They’re a bit tight, probably because the size isn’t correct, but no welts. No soreness. I thoroughly recommend these Knicks. Worth taking the punt.
I bought these knicks for a specific bike packing race - the 2024 Tassie Gift. The hype of "no saddle sores" in the the marketing induced me to buy a pair. The Gift is an 1800km, 36000m of ascent bike packing race on the edge of the world, with an enormous amount of time in remote and very wild places. The terrain was super tough with lots of dense skin tearing vegetation to push through, rivers to swim and mountains to hike a bike and many days of pouring rain (aka wet arse). I wore the knicks for 22 straight days, with 3 quick washes :):) - simply put - they performed flawlessly, comfortable to ride in for 13 hours a day in the saddle. Even though a little worn from the scrub, they still hold their shape and the padding is still dense and supportive. They survived two high speeds crashes - hitting the gravel hard (no tears or holes - miracle) I think the hype is justified and I'd definitely buy another pair. And excellent pre sale customer service, well done Yuva on creating a product that lives up to the promises made.
Still not done more than a 50 mile ride, but these shorts are probably the most comfortable I have worn.
Customer service is excellent and the sizing advice spot on. Delivery was quick too.
Overall a great experience buying and wearing these bib shorts.
Highly recommended.
I'm 6'-4" tall with a hip & glute circumference around 39.5". The Large size fits me perfectly.
I bought these bibs with a view of using them for the Renegades Muster 870KM race in New Zealand. They worked as promised. Its always a little challenging picking a Bib you have not used before. The risk of them not working well is always there and I have many pairs that just never provide comfort on the longer rides. My first impression was that they felt a little puffy initially I guess my Assos were thinner in their feel but I quickly got use to this. I used the bibs for a number of training rides including the Muster and they have around 2000Km's on them and there are no issues. It rained for 10 hours the first day of riding and no issues. The fit has been comfortable and although I was not sure re the sizing advice given they have been a great fit.
These bibs are by far and away the most comfortable I have owned. I just got into Randonneuring and was amazed at the number of recommendations to REDWHITE Apparel. I completely understand now. I am 5'6" 145pounds and the Large (Regular) fit perfectly. I highly recommend letting the good folks @ REDWHITE apparel help fit you however there fit chart was dead on.
Greatly appreciate all the customer service with the sizing assistance, and the winter bib itself is amazing! The chamois is great and the material is really comfortable - just finished a 41-mile ride in windy 50⁰F without any discomfort. The pockets are really stretchy and roomy - no worries at all about my wallet falling out. I was initially concerned about the ankle zippers but I never felt them at all once I was all kitted up.
I’d heard a lot of good reviews regarding the RedWhite bibs, so thought I would purchase a pair. I received a message from Yuva the owner regarding sizing and he absolutely got it perfect, as we all know sizing is a nightmare with cycling clothes, the sizing chart is a big help also. The bibs themselves, for the price they are well made and once on the fit is very nice. I’ve only had chance to do one ride here in the UK as the weather has took a turn for the worse, but I did a 50 mile ride and had no problems with them.
The price is very good also as I usually were a premium brand which cost twice as much as these. The service I got was 100% and I believe these are made for cyclists by cyclists.
Obviously once the weather is better I shall then wear them a lot more and will make a more in depth review. First impressions, I like them and I think a lot of people out there also like them.
I have 2 pair of these bibs. As a very short rider, I love the 2 inch shorter bibs. The fit is perfect and they are very comfortable!
I have not had the opportunity to do as many miles as I would normally do in these bibs, mainly because of the timing of the purchase and a downturn in the weather in the UK! What I liked was being able to get sizing confirmed using the help desk prior to purchase. This gave me confidence they would fit and they do fit spot on. The bibs are well made and feel very comfortable. The pad feels excellent and I would have not problem doing all day rides in these bibs.
I really like these bib shorts at this price point. Sure, there are others of equivalent quality, but generally about $100 more expensive. These really work well for the long ride, and great pockets. I will be purchasing more.
RedWhite customer service is exceptional! I sent an email to confirm the correct size for winter bibs, and got a reply within hours. The initial product I ordered arrived quicker than if the company was in the USA. When the original order arrived there was some kind of sticking stuff inside one of the legs. I sent a picture with note to RedWhite about the situation. Almost immediately I got an email telling me a replacement order would be sent. I got the replacement bibs as quick as the first order. I asked what I should do with the defective product and got a timely reply telling me to give them a good washing and try to get some use out of them. You will not find a business with better customer service than this. Early this year, I ordered bib shorts from RedWhite with the same outstanding customer service and timely delivery. Both the shorts and winter tights are top of the line.
As I was recovering from my 2nd double century (Beach City Double Century), I came across a RedWhite Bibs Facebook advertisement. First thing I noticed was how many riders have tried their product and gave them a 3-5 stars rating. I typically read the 1-2 stars ratings first just to see what went wrong and after reading the negative and positive reviews, I decided to take measurements and submit them to RedWhite. I (5'8", 150lbs., 34" hips, 17" thighs, 38" gluts) measured out for a medium bib which was confirmed with in 30 minutes by Yuva. I submitted my order and within 3 to 4 days my bib arrived, just in time for my 3rd double century (Bass Lake Power House Double Century). Excellent service!
I followed all the instructions before trying them on. The bib fit perfectly. The 2.5-inch-wide elastic grips my thighs comfortably. The Italian Lycra felt very comfortable, almost like I was wearing nothing. The padding was perfect. To be honest, I never owned a pair of bibs and was not used to the elastic suspenders at first. I'm not convinced suspenders help and I did find them to be a nuisance when it was time to use the bathroom. But that's a personal issue.
I tested the bibs on my 3rd double century (Bass Lake Power House Double Century). WOW! What a difference these bibs made. No rash or sore spots post ride! Albeit I did feel some minor discomfort that usual occur while riding long distances but of no fault to the product. My sit bones were in heaven!
I am wondering how these bibs will hold up next year when I attempt 5-double centuries.
Thank you RedWhite Apparel!
First class service from Yuva, from initial enquiry to measurement advice and help,to delivery which was punctual.
Highly recommend to any prospective buyers.
Bib tights are really good and comfortable.Thankyou.
Red Whites are my go to bibs, it’s that simple. I have had other bibs and padded shorts, but Red Whites are my favorite.
This is my 2nd purchase and will not be my last. Redwhite bibs has always been my most trust worthy outfit especially for my long ride. Ever since I use redwhite, I never have a saddle sore again.
Even my first bibs still in good condition after 2 years, I couldn't resist myself to get the new improved one as a standby or alternate use.
Appreciate the effort o producing such a good bibs at a very reasonable price.
Absolutely chuffed with these. Size advice was spot on, although for the deep winter in Scotland I’d probably get a size up for a base layer if riding sub zero. Pockets are well placed and generously sized, if I was being picky I might change the two back pockets to side by side (split vertically) rather than one atop the other.
Shoulder yolk is wide, soft and comfortable, and doesn’t move about while riding, at least not on my shoulders.
As yet I’ve done about 130k on these so I can’t speak to the durability of the fabric but seams are well stitched and water repellency seems up to scratch.
Over all very happy, and will probably be buying again. Thanks!
I found the shorts very very comfortable, the padding is excellent and i will buy again.
Have had the shorts now for just over 1 month and ridden all sorts of sessions in them from hard short efforts up to 6-7 hour rides.
The fit advise was spot on, and i am riding in a medium size being 170cm tall and 65kg.
Have been extremely happy with the shorts from a comfort perspective and they appear to be lasting well from a quality perspetive while washing them on gentle and in a laundry bag. Have a 300km ride planned in December so these will be my go to bib for the day!
Very prompt delivery. Marginally on the tight side for me at 196cm, 110 kg, but not uncomfortably so. Fantastic chamois. Had some lingering saddle soreness from a long multiday ride just before I ordered these and first used them. First 2 rides were 3+ hours and my bum actually felt better after the ride!
I have mid-level bibs and high-end expensive bibs but this beats them all. The cushioning is perfect, all in the right places. Usually my sit-bones start aching about a couple of hours in the saddle. But with this bib on, I feel no aches or pains, just bliss! Wow. My quest for the grail bib has come to an end.
Had these knicks for a while and worn them on both road and gravel. They are a good material with a little bit of compression but comfortable. The pad is excellent and good for long distance. They’re not cheap but are good value if you’re going to clock up some mileage. Especially good on lumpy gravel
I seriously love these bib shorts. I followed the sizing advice. I’m solidly a small in all the others I own, but I got the cargo bib in a medium and they fit perfectly. Measurements for reference - 5’5”, 128lbs, slim waist/hips, 32DD, athletic thighs - 37”/26”/35.5”. These are snug everywhere you want, no sausage legs with the grippers, comfy shoulder straps, and ALL of the pockets for snacks, phone, keys, etc (leg pockets and pockets on the back). I get hot in the muggy Midwest summers and sometimes prefer just a light base layer and these allow me to skip the jersey if needed, or pack it into one of the back pockets halfway through the ride. The chamois is great, I frequently ride 25-30 mile gravel routes and I’d grab these bibs for a longer route for sure. I have no doubt they’d do fine for 50 or 100 miles if needed. I have some of the “best chamois for women bibs,” and these top those easily. Good cushion where we need it, no obnoxious bulk that we hate to walk around in. I even had a decent crash, leaving me road-rashed and bruised down my left leg. The bibs are still perfectly fine. They wash well, they wear perfectly. Considering converting my entire kit stash over to RedWhite at this point.
Customer service is top notch, as well. 10/10 for these!
