I am a loyal Castelli wearer. I decided to upgrade from the endurance 2. Just a few rides but I like the fit, the chamois seems a tad more comfortable. I can't wait to put in some long rides to check the endurance label
Review by CvK
The chamois on these are the perfect thickness. Not too thick that makes you move around and not too thin to make a long ride difficult. The chamois is also so good that I only need chamois cream on very long rides. The silicone grippers are also fantastic and never slip. I'm 6' 190 and these are XL which fit perfectly. Everything about these are great.

I have been riding Castelli bibs for the last 8 years, and I am extremely happy of that last 2 I ordered and used for Unbound gravel.
Very comfortable, maybe on the heavy side but no butt pain after 14h on the bike.

Really great shorts. I ordered more, but run really small. I'm 5ft 10in 170lbs. I took a 3xl.

I already had the Endurance 2 and as far as I can tell the Endurance 3 is the same. Fits perfectly but there's not a lot of padding in the seat. Not really a problem for me - just comparing it to other shorts I have. Workmanship is excellent.
Review by James
Very nicely made bibs, fabric feels good, and most importantly the chamois is very comfortable for longer rides. My only gripe is the leg grippers can make it hard to adjust the fit if your legs are on the thicker side. Sizing is as expected from Castelli, I ordered 2XL and I am 6'3" 220. Compared to other bibs, this feels a bit tight on the length, but I didn't think 3XL would solve that problem.

Great Castelli quality and really nice chamois. Great price at BTD!!

These bibs are extremely comfortable on long rides. The padding just feels so on point. I've gone on a 5hr bike ride and no pain at all.

I thought these bibs were comfortable with temperatures in the mid nineties. The legs stayed in place. I really couldn't ask for anymore. I will buy another pair.

I ordered a size up to make sure it was confertable. Its my first pair of bibs so I have nothing to compare it to.

The Proghetto II chamois pad is the best Ive found and longest lasting. Combined with the usual great fit From Castelli it makes this my davorite bib short.

The best bib short I've owned in many years of riding, comfortable all around, especially on the seat area, durable, washable (cold/gentle).

Best chamois pad that I have ever worn. The cut is very comfortable on the bike. These run small, so I needed a size larger than my regular size.
Review by bbhack
One of the best chamois I've worn. Straps don't rollup. Excellent leg grippers. The medium runs small, I had to go up a size.

These bib shorts stand out because of the chamois pad and the overall fit. They are amazing in both!

Used for long rides 4-8 hours. Ordered M and it is a good snug fit for a 32 waist. Wear with chamois cream and so far no chaffing or other usual issues. Have bought again for multiple day rides.

Love these bibs for every ride. Nice for that long hilly ride or that short commuter. Pad hits in all the right places and light weight for the warm hillys climbs.
Review by Dave R.
Purchased these on sale and with extra points were a great price. Shorts are very comfortable, have Castelli's high end seat pad. I use them for rides ranging from 40-100 miles. So far have been excellent. I prefer the silicone grippers on the legs. They just stay in place the best for me. Size, I normally purchase XL in Castelli bib shorts. With these I had to go to 2XL. They run even smaller than normal. I'm tall/thin 6'6' 185-190 lbs. 32-33 waist size. Length on the legs is also ample even for my height. They might be a little too long on shorter riders? Plan to buy more of these.
Review by Berkeley Rider
These are my go to bibs. Have tried PI, Assos and always come back to these. Perfect fit for me: 5-10, 160, lean build, medium. Chamois is great, compression right on, and they don't ride up too high.

No comparison between the team wear and this piece. Long rides on consecutive days usually take a toll but the padding on this bib short make the hours go by without even noticing discomfort. Get yourself some pro-level shorts if you've hesitated. These don't have the most technical fabric but they do seem durable and supportive. It's really the chamois that sets these apart from everything else I've used.
