I’m 6’4” and weigh 240. I purchased a XXL and while the shoulder straps were indeed fine, the shorts themselves were so small that it was like they sewed a medium short onto the straps. Totally surprised at how small they were. Also ordered a XXL relaxed fit jersey that was beyond skin tight. Will never order from here again - especially since I had to pay $15 postage to return the items.
The full-on tall bibs were too long for me and went almost to the knee, but these fit just right. I ordered a second pair immediately following my first ride in them. Pockets hold my phone securely and the leg grippers work well. As long as they hold up I'll be extremely satisfied.
Bibs fit and feel great on and off the bike and are made well. I’m looking forward to them again. My only wish is that they came up a little higher on the belly, but that’s a minor gripe.
These are the bibs I continue to look for in my collection of Black Bibs and a few others when I want to be comfortable during longer rides. The long straps fit me better and the pockets are a quick place to stuff gels or easy access to my phone for the required Strava photo.
I have had several pairs of the Adventure Bibs and always liked them. They felt a little tight on the shoulder straps, so these new long strap bibs are even better! These are my go to bibs now and the price point makes them even better. I have other bibs that cost 2.5 times more, but I prefer my Black Bibs Adventure Long Shoulder Strap!
