We all have our favorite bibs: the ones that we reach for even if that means reaching into the laundry hamper. Our favorite bibs are simple: providing comfort without restriction, and enough padding to help the miles pass without weighing us down on the climbs. POC's Essential Road Bibs do just that to quickly become our new favorite with a silicone-based VPDs insert and anatomic construction. POC constructs the Essential Road VPDs Bib Shorts from a compressive fabric to support your muscles for all-day training sessions. The anatomic cut keeps us comfortable on the hoods or in the drops as we chase back onto the lead group for the final kilometers. POC's silicone-based chamois places the padding strategically throughout the insert for maximum comfort to prevent pressure points or chafing. We can ride all day with this breathable insert reducing the harshness of the open road's chip-seal finish. The mesh bib upper keeps the bibs in place, with an integrated pocket to amplify our storage capacity for long rides, while the elasticated leg gripper lies flat and keeps tan lines crisp.
