“I have attached two photos to demonstrate how bloody brilliant your shorts have been. After 18 month of near daily use either on the turbo (soaked in sweat), on the road either under tights or on their own these shorts have been remarkable. They have been washed daily, sometimes twice a day depending on the number of sessions. I have used them many times with chamois cream. They have done numerous multi day trips with minimal washing in between. Unlike previous FLAB shorts, there has been no separation of the pad. The only reason I have had to retire them is I have worn the lycra at the back at the top of the pad so that it is see through - way too much detail for anyone following me apparently.
You really are making top flight gear. Incidentally, I have not thrown a single top away yet, I have worn some so that they are somewhat faded and extremely thin, but they still hang on in there.
Well done to you both. You should be very proud of what you are making.”
“Just completed first ride in my bib-shorts. The fit, feel and quality did not dissappoint, which echos my experience with my other FLAB items. Size is spot on. I enjoy the fact that the quality is not compromised by the sense of humour and quirkiness. Keep it up.”
“I donäó»t like to give negative reviews especially as Iäó»ve not had any real issues with FLAB kit in the past. Iäó»m certainly not a skinny cyclist, far from it infact, but at 100kg and 6äó»2äó Iäó»d say Iäó»m well proportioned. I have a 43äó chest and a 36äó waist so ordered a size 44äó jersey. Looked great out of the packet, was slightly roomy round the chest but too baggy round the bottom half. The real issue however was round the neck, I couldnäó»t do the zip all the way up it was THAT tight, i have a 17.5äó neck. Donäó»t know if the jersey I received was a one off that had been made slightly wrong or the sizing is just that far out on these jerseys. Slightly disappointed though. Sorry guys.”
“Never worn bib shorts before, so I canäó»t compare. But trying them out last weekend they were comfortable and did the job. And of course they dry quick after washing. They donäó»t flatter, but with my figure thatäó»s a big ask! They fit, and thatäó»s what matters. I hadnäó»t thought what a faff theyäó»d be when you need the loo, but ingenuity finds a way. Hmm, thatäó»s not going to work with tights for the colder weatheräó_.”
