Perhaps it’s the Italian Dolomiti dual layer chamois that makes these so comfy, or maybe it’s the sizing – a fit that doesn’t pull or stretch in awkward places – that makes these a faultless piece of kit. Or maybe it’s just those adorable polka dots. Either way, with an element of compression in the fabric, printed gripper elastic in the leg bands and flat lock stitching throughout, the Morvelo Skye bibs can do no wrong.
