1. How should these bib shorts fit?
The Men’s Elite Bib Short is an anatomical racing cut designed to fit like a second skin. They are designed to feel slightly tight when standing but perfectly contoured once you are in a forward-leaning riding position. If you see fabric bunching or the chamois (pad) shifting, you may need to size down. While snug, it uses high-stretch Italian fabrics to ensure you don't feel restricted during everyday training or racing.

Featuring a men’s-specific cut, they are a snug yet comfortable fit that moves with your body—delivering a streamlined feel on the bike without restriction.

2. What makes these bib shorts suitable for 7+ hour rides?
The Mens Elite Bib Shorts feature a specialised 15mm long-distance chamois with 20% higher density than standard pro pads. This extra density provides superior ischiatic support, ensuring the foam doesn't bottom out during extended days in the saddle.

3. What makes Italian fabrics better?
Italian performance fabrics are known for their superior compression, breathability and durability, helping riders maintain comfort during long rides.

4. How does the chamois prevent odor and bacteria build up?
Yes. The top layer of the chamois is integrated with carbon thread, a rapid-dry fabric that naturally enhances antibacterial properties and reduces odour buildup.

5. Should I wear underwear with these bibs?
No. Cycling bibs are strictly designed to be worn without underwear. The chamois is engineered to sit directly against your skin to wick moisture and prevent the chafing that occurs when underwear seams rub against your body during repetitive pedaling.

6. Why are bib shorts better than regular cycling shorts?
Bib shorts use shoulder straps to hold the shorts in place, preventing waistband pressure and reducing movement while riding.

7. Are these bibs suitable for racing and endurance rides?
Yes. The compressive fabric, long-distance chamois and ergonomic fit make them suitable for both training and racing.

What size should I choose?
Choosing the right size cycling bib shorts comes down to the fit you prefer and how you ride. Most performance cycling bib shorts are designed to fit close to the body to reduce fabric gathering & chaffing. This means they should feel snug when standing, but comfortable and natural once you’re in the riding position.

Designed to be a true-to-size fit based on Australian sizing standards, offering a comfortable, performance-oriented feel without being an overly tight European style fit.

If you prefer a tight, race-style fit, choose your usual size for a streamlined, aerodynamic feel. If you prefer a slightly more relaxed fit for casual riding or extra comfort, you may prefer to size up.

As a guide, the bib should sit close to the body without restricting movement, with the leg bands staying in place while you ride. A well-fitted cycling bib will feel supportive and comfortable—like a second skin—once you’re on the bike.

To find your Brooklyn Project size, refer to our size chart at the bottom of the page and match your chest, waist, and hip measurements. The waist & hip are the most important measures for the bibs. We also recommend sticking with your usual pants/shorts size (for example 32" = M, 34" = L, 36" XL etc).
