Not what they use to be
I just sent it back. The materials were cheap feeling and I had little confidence it would last. I compared it to a very popular Amazon bib that I bought to compare and there was no comparison. The chamois was bulky and has no creases to form to your body. I can see chaffing as being an issue. Also it runs pretty true to size, I bought way to big.

I've Ordered More
These are my go-to shorts. The shoulder straps can be annoying because they roll and twist when I put them on and then have to get them flat but they're never an issue after that. I like that they come up over the belly button. The chamois is good. I have 2 pair from a year plus back and have recently added another 2 and the difference between the old padding and the new is very slight. Love the blue.

Good enough
The chamois is very comfortable, actually no need for cream which I always use. But I dont like the bib because of the following leg length shorter than I like, band at bottom of leg not snug enough, doesnt lay flat at edge( think of ruffles), straps are very minimal, tend to bunch. All of this is subjective, you may loves these things in a bib, but not me.

Poorly made
The leg grippers are looser than the legs. So they're not really leg grippers, more like leg flaps.

Love these!
Love, love LOVE these bib shorts. Had been waiting for PI to replace an earlier version of these that had been my previous favorites. Malfunctioning leg gripper design replaced in this new version with better, softer fabric and more comfortable straps. All the comfort and 3/4 the price of the pricey PRO version. Can't lose!

Super uncomfortable total waste of money
I have some cheap bibs I got on Amazon that are 100% better than this one. I wanted an �upgrade� so I bought this pearl thinking it would be a great bib for long rides or events. It rubs me raw an issue I don�t have with my cheap Amazon bibs. The padding is alright until it awkwardly starts pinching. I bought it wore it once and was afraid to wear it again. Finally after months of it sitting I wore it for a second time and it rubbed me raw and pinched again. It�s not even worth giving away. I�ll throw it in the trash, total waste of $100 and I�ll think twice about buying Pearl products going forward I want to pay for the product not the name.

Good bibs
These bibs fit well overall, appear to be made well as you would expect from Pearl, and I love the departure from ubiquitous black.

Great bib!
My only negative are the shoulder straps. They occasionally get tangled up because of how thin they are.
