Hi all

 

Think: Bib shorts, with baggy pants over, but with bib top also to go over shoulder.

 

so you have the pockets and casual look of baggy shorts, but with bib top/bottom + padding.

Why not just wear shorts over your bib shorts...?

 

EXACTLY! All has already been addressed on this thread, but I'll say it again...

 

I see baggies with built in bibs/chamois like 2-in-1 shampoo and conditioner. It does the job, but not particularly well. If you want the best results use a good shampoo and good conditioner.

 

ie. Wear decent baggies over a decent bib. Buy them separately.

No,

 

you get MTB shorts, baggy shorts, that have a lycra normal cycling short inside with padding,

 

Now take that lycra short and rather make it the standard full bib bottom/top, but with a baggy short over the bottom.

I know, and I can.

 

But then the same answer is applicable why not just wear baggy short over lycra riding bottom's,

There is a market for this, where the bottom and baggy over is one unit, All i'm wondering is if someone has made it with a bib top also, going over the shoulders.

I guess there could be a "market" for it. But personally, I think if it was reasonably priced (let's say 1000 ZARs) one would end up with a mediocre bib and mediocre shorts.

 

Kinda like the boardshorts-over-bib look that gummi posted

 

 

If it was top comfort and quality (like TLD baggies and an Assos bib kinda combo) it would be close on R3000 for the combo... Generally baggie wearers are less "serious" so dropping that kinda cash on broeke may not go down too well.

 

I guess one could produce such a product and possibly make a success of it.

 

But for me... I'd rather just buy 2 separate items, exactly as I want them.
