Another new addition to the Rapha women’s winter ensemble, these bibs feel incredibly luxurious; soft, stretchy and light weight. Constructed from Italian Thermoroubaix material, it’s hard to explain just how soft these feel – you’ll just have to purchase a pair to see what we mean! Brushed fleece is used on the inside to help with insulation but also to be soft against your skin.

The first noticeable feature is the chamois pad, or even, the lack of it. Rapha have created these bib leggings to be worn over padded cycling shorts – this is the same situation for the men as well.

Other key notable features include; a roomy zipped pocket on the rear, super soft foot loops, with silicone in a line round the inside of each hem at the bottom of the legs. The full length cam lock zipper stops just above the tummy button and the rear of the bib is constructed of mesh fabric to aid ventilation.
