We took the same fit and many of the features of our Signature Bib Short, to create the Foundation Bib Short, a short to medium distance bib short, perfect for the "lunch ride".

Lightweight and made with recycled fabric, the Foundation offers balanced compression. We used the same bib straps, leg gripper and trims as found on the Signature but incorporated a simpler high-density chamois for excellent support in a slightly thinner form - ideal for shorter stints in the saddle.  A premium bib short at a not-so-premium price, the Foundation offers a platform for a better riding experience.

FEATURES

• 78% Recycled nylon fabric with Extra Life Lycra: balanced compression & breathability, comfort and longevity
• High Gauge for excellent recovery and second skin fit
• 5-Panel design: anatomically cut, compressive and supportive to enhance performance
• Foundation chamois, modeled after our Signature chamois and developed with Elastic Interface, provides excellent mid-distance comfort & support

SPECS

Fabric: 78% Recycled Polyamide / 22% Elastane
Made in: Italy

CARE

Caring for your cycling gear properly will extend its life and maintain its performance, fit and quality. It’s important to consider these instructions carefully. While we stand behind the quality of our apparel, not adhering to these instructions will void our warranty against manufacturing & defects.

We strongly recommend washing your new gear before wearing it. You’ll find that your apparel will soften, and fit & comfort will improve after washing - especially with bibs & shorts.

Machine wash cool, 86°F (30°C) with like colors: Cooler temps maintain better longevity for your apparel. Like colors, especially lights, will remain more vibrant when washed with like colors.

Use mild detergent. Do not bleach or dry clean: Strong detergents & bleach can break down the fibers and elastane in the garment, dramatically reducing its life.

Close all fastenings: this goes also for other garments mixed in with your cycling apparel. Velcro closures or clasps can catch on stitching or trim and damage your garments.

Lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry: Do not put your cycling apparel in the dryer. Even on low heat. Don’t do it. Heat can damage fabric, elastic and heat transfer logos very easily. Lycra (Elastane) is used throughout our garments to provide compression and support and is susceptible to damage from heat and can irreparably damage your apparel.
