Bib shorts and Pants Northwave

Bib shorts jerseys and Northwave trousers, the pleasure of moving your legs

Worn with Bib shorts and Northwave trousers, leg movement becomes smooth and efficient. An undisputed leader in footwear, the Italian brand also shines in apparel. And for the lower body, it has designed lightweight, comfortable, highly breathable garments. Available with or without bib straps, they leave room for state-of-the-art chamois pads. But they also do without them when the priority is to stay upright on the pedals.

Bib shorts

Close-fitting and protective, a Bib shorts cycling jersey Northwave performs at its best on tarmac as well as in XC. But it also discreetly supports your rides in gravel. This is thanks to the microfiber bib straps which, gripping the shoulders, keep the Bib shorts perfectly stable. Among the company’s most popular models, the Northwave Origin bib shorts stand out, with a virtually unbeatable price-performance ratio. Elastic and cool, they combat the feeling of fatigue thanks to the slightly compressive fabric. Further enhancing the garment’s intrinsic strengths is the Extreme Pro model. Chosen by racing athletes and the most demanding enthusiasts, it is a Bib shorts that gives you the decisive step up in terms of aerodynamics.

Shorts

The Northwave range is more varied when it comes to cycling shorts. Alongside the road variant, well represented by the Force 2, there are the Northwave gravity trousers. Moving away from the close-fitting cut, the fit shifts toward comfort. Roomier and more robust, they are designed to accommodate knee pads, essential for fans of extreme speeds. In addition to the iconic baggy shorts, the Northwave catalog offers models long enough to reach the ankles, including the excellent Bomb. Designed around enduro, they feature a stylish denim-like design. And although they do without a chamois pad, they protect sensitive areas with an abrasion-proof panel.

A wall against the rain

Bib shorts and Northwave cycling shorts are the reference garments for summer and the mid-season. But nothing prevents us from wearing them when it is colder too, perhaps paired with a pair of heavy Leg warmers. If the weather turns rainy, it is better to choose a model that is partially or fully waterproof. Available on several Northwave models, including the oversized Edge baggy bermudas, it is the DWR treatment that makes water and mud splashes slide off. On the Active Acquazero Bib shorts, however, the brushed Sitip Blizzard fabric firmly resists rain, while also ensuring high thermal insulation.
