If you can live with the colour/graphics, the ZipVit team ones are brilliant - and an complete bargain at the price they are doing them at now!

The sizing chart is bob on.

^^^What he said...I've got so much stuff from that place Pearl Izumi/ZeroRH+ and Catlike.

You do have to be patient...order and them wait a month but that's their companies USP, bulk buy savings.

+1 the Mcippolini stuff from cycle store. If I needed another pair of bibs I'd snap them up. Got some of their thermal bibs at similar discount from cyclestore and they are fantastic quality. Its basically the top of the range Giordana (Forme Red carbon, FRC) stuff tweaked and re-badged; your'e getting Assos quality at DHB prices.

Karnali, they are Italian so come up a bit small. I am a 34-36 inch waist so ordered the XXL which was a bit tight so exchanged them for the XXXL.

So if you get the XL they will be spot on for a 32 inch waist.
And if they dont fit return them and get refund.

I'm very impressed with the Lusso shorts I have. The Pro-Gel insert is the best I've used and the fit/comfort of the bib short is better than some of the scary priced ones I've "treated" myself to in the past.

I was so impressed after the first ride I promtly bought two more 😳

I may have some large bib-shorts i'll check (34" waistish) i'll have a look. Won't want much if i do. (they'll be new with tags)

Pretty sure i only have a small jacket left now.

I'll drop you an email later when I get home.
