The ISPO Award-winning product is GOREWEAR’s highest-performing cycling bib short with a proprietary 3D-printed seat pad.
GOREWEAR, the leading innovator in high-performance running and cycling apparel, announces the newest addition to its cycling collection: the Ultimate Bib Shorts+. These Shorts are intended for the most demanding road and gravel rides and feature a custom-designed, multi-layer, 3D-printed seat pad for all-day comfort and support.
GOREWEAR collaborated with the world’s most advanced fabric and leading seat map manufacturers to design this top-of-the-line cycling bib short. The result is a bib short that delivers body-mapped compression, support, and breathability with reduced chafing and pressure points, culminating in a 2023 ISPO Award-winning package.
The Ultimate Bib Shorts+ key differentiator is the proprietary EXPERT N3X 3D-printed seat pad. The seat pad is engineered in collaboration with Elastic Interface engineers – leveraging new 3D printed technology – that utilizes a layer-by-layer construction for superior control over its technical characteristics compared to traditional foam pads. Moreover, the seat pad is made from an eco-friendly, bio-based hydrophobic material topped with a recycled face fabric that substantially diminishes the bib’s environmental impact.
The seat pad’s open grid structure offers faster drying times, minimal sweat absorption, and improved air permeability to optimize skin temperature management.
The comfort and performance benefits continue beyond the chamois. GOREWEAR engineered the woven functional zoning of the Ultimate Bib Shorts+ fabric, which blends compression and breathability across body-mapped zones. The added compression promotes blood flow in critical muscles for an extended time to fatigue and faster recovery.
This design reduces necessary seams for improved durability and increased next-to-skin comfort, which has become synonymous with GOREWEAR.
Engineered shoulder straps consist of broad, single-piece mesh material that hugs the rider with evenly distributed tension and maximum breathability.
Additional features include quick-drying fabric, flat seams, and reflective details for visibility.
The Ultimate Bib Shorts+ (MSRP $300) is available in a black colorway in a men’s silhouette (XS-XL).
