The Cargo Bib Short (Men's) with Pockets

US$160.00
Quantity:

*This Cargo Bibshort sizing runs tighter in the hips & glutes than The BIB (Men's) because of the 4 pockets. Please check the sizing chart's glute circumference before making a purchase. 

**Sizing Note : If you are a short and heavy rider, look for the shorter inseam size option. If you're tall & lean, look for the longer inseam size option. If ever in doubt, use the Sizing Helpdesk for a personalised size recommendation

***Please note that the critical dimension for sizing is the glute circumference. Weight is a loose proxy for this. Naturally, a taller person will weigh more, hence the expanded weight range for Longer Inseam bibs. Do not pick a size based solely on weight and pay attention to the glute circumference.

The Cargo Bib Short (Men's) with Pockets is based on our best-selling long-distance bibshort - The BIB (Men's). It is designed to help you ride further than ever before. 4 large pockets allow you to store large quantities of nutrition, inner tubes, tool kits, spare clothing and more. These pockets are made from a tough & stretchy nylon fabric that is snag-resistant.

A Bib Short Built for Long Distance Rides

This bib short is designed to help you crush big miles in comfort. It is made for rides of more than 5 hours and has been ridden in events such as :

  • Transcontinental Race
  • AUDAX
  • Paris-Brest-Paris
  • Race Across America
  • Pacific Coast Bicycle Race
  • Atlas Mountain Race
What can these pockets carry? :

The model in these photos is 6 foot 1 inch, 40" Hip & Glute circumference, weighs 182 lbs. He is wearing a size XL (Regular) and is carrying the following items, with room for more

  • Samsung Galaxy S9+ phone & 1 Gel with room for 2 more (thigh pocket)
  • 3 cereal bars, with room for 1 more (thigh pocket)
  • Banana & 2 inner tube (lower rear pocket)
  • Pump, Tyre Levers & 1 inner tube (upper rear pocket)
Available in 3 Inseam Lengths:

This bibshort is available in 2 inseam lengths - Regular, 2" Shorter Inseam & 2" Longer Inseam. The 2" Shorter inseam version is a Regular Length with 2" taken off the legs. The 2" Longer inseam version is a Regular Length with 2" added to the legs.

For example : A 180 lbs (81kg) rider who is 5 foot 6" with a 41 inch glute circumference would need a size 2XL. However, the size 2XL (Regular) will be too long for him. He will need the size 2XL (2" Shorter Inseam) for his 5 foot 6" height. On the other end of the spectrum, a rider who is 155 lbs and 6 foot 3 inch tall with a 35.5 inch glute. This rider will find a M (Regular) too short in the legs and will need M (+2" Longer Inseam).

Note for Returning Customers :

This bib short has been designed to retain the same fit, feel and performance as the bibshorts you've been purchasing for years from RedWhite. The only major change is the new Silicone Macro-Dot Gripper (see photos). This gripper was chosen for 2 reasons :

  1. It is more durable and doesn't overstretch with use. It stays grippy longer than the gripper used in our older bibshorts.
  2. It grips knee and leg warmers & coolers better. You can easily slip this gripper over the ends of your knee / leg coverings and have it hold those coverings better than the old grippers.

Keen eyed customers would notice the new rubber logo stitched on left thigh. This rubber logo has been ride-tested extensively. You won't notice it while riding. It is also washing-machine friendly and durable. Please note to only wash your bibshort in a cold wash cycle and never use a dryer-machine. Heat damages lycra and rubber.

    Amazing and affordable 🙏

    Since I got the bibs I put around 4000-500 km with them, including 100km+ ride. The fit, the materials are amazing but the pads are on another level. The amount of storage on the bibs is fantastic as I get to store all my gels, wind jacket, phone, 500ml soft flask, you name it and best part, storage hold everything together. Bibs don’t slide down or move around with all extra weights.
    I usually use Assos bibs but prices are spicy of them. Definitely ordering another pair soon .

    Regular Length good for short people

    First pair of RW bibs. First pair of cargo bibs. Firstly everything has been great. The shorts do what they are meant too and the pockets are a great addition (I dont think I'd want regular non picket version again). Ideal for long audaxes with a firm but comfy amount of padding. I am a short man 166cm and not weighty but quite stocky. Yuva suggested the rugular length in medium which was spot on. I'd look a bit special with shorts 2 inch shorter imo. There are quite a few loose threads on the elastic cuff which aren't a problem but worth mentioning. Just whispy loose ends not threads coming undone. I would but again and I am impressed with the company

    Cargo Bibs with Pockets

    I found these bibs to be a little tight at first, but needed to be worn and washed a few times to get a great fit. Now they are my preferred bib. The padding is very comfortable after a couple of washes. Having extra pockets was really a lifesaver on a long ride that I did recently. Having extra room to stash gels and powders, even a raincoat was great. I would highly recommend this product.

    Bibs are a fantastic, just like the original and the pockets add versatility!

    This fit just like the non-pocket version, perfectly and they work great. The pockets just add versatility to the pant and allow me to carry stuff when I do drive tot he trail, things like my car fob or even my phone. Love these, they are my go to bib for riding when I need to carry stuff.

    Excellent fit and very comfortable. The sizing help desk service is very useful in helping you choose the correct pair.
    I wore my new shorts on a 80 mile ride, and I forgot I had new shorts on. I was expecting a breaking in period but comfortable on the first.

    The extra pockets are great, especially the back pouch, where I stored my rain jacket.

    It's the personal touch of being able to ask Red White Apparel questions and get a quick, honest response.

    The returns policy is good, along with the washing instructions.

    Top shorts and top service, I would recommend them to my friends.

    Great product and service

    I bought these to upgrade my kit, and recently rode back-to-back 100 mile days in them. They fit well, and are very comfortable all day long. The pockets are great - they’re big but stay flat when empty.

    Customer service is great too - definitely contact Yuva for fit advice.

    Fit where they touch👌🏼

    I did my research looking for a pair of shorts for an upcoming multi-day trip of around five hours a day. My current shorts are great quality from a reputable brand, but I just wasn’t sure that they’d be up to five hour days. So I settled on RedWhite Cargo shorts and I am absolutely thrilled with them. I’ve done a couple of five hour rides in them and I can honestly say that they really are up to job. I want to make a special mention of the sizing though. I paid meticulous attention to the advice Yuva provides and I can honestly say that in over 35 years of serious cycling, I have never had a pair of shorts that fit this well. They literally fit where they touch and are a complete joy to wear. My advice would be to follow what Yuva says and you too will see what I mean. I bought cargo shorts but I’m not really using the pockets at the moment because I have light luggage fitted. That said, the quality and location of the pockets is exceptional. Next, I’m going to have a pair without pockets, but I have definitely found my shorts for the foreseeable future👌🏼.

    Safe and Sound

    These shorts served me perfectly on a meandering Sustrans route Lands End to John O’Groats, over 1200 miles.
    Coupled with chammy cream, it was all about the quality and design of the chamois padding.
    Yuva responded very quickly and made me feel a valued customer.
    Many thanks.

    Best bike shorts I have owned so far

    I have tried numerous different brands of bibs claiming to be the best. After looking online for a pair of bibs suitable for long distance riding I came across REDWHITE and the overwhelming positive reviews people left. I decided to give them a try. They are the most comfortable bibs I have ever owned and my sore bum is no longer on those long rides. I will definitely buy my next pair of cycling bibs from this company.
