This bib tight is perfect for early-winter training where warmth is still important but less extreme temperatures allows for lighter and more flexible materials to be used.
The unique mix of materials allows sweat to naturally evaporate and dry rapidly which makes this tight very suitable for steady, long endurance rides but also for high Intensity efforts.
The anatomical cut gives you all the freedom of movement and ensure a perfect fit. The award-winning CyTech Endurance 2.5 HD chamois ensures optimum comfort, and silicone grippers keep the legs in place. The bib uppers feature a secure magnetic closure system which makes taking them on and off a total breeze, no more faffing behind bushes and peeling off layers in the depth of winters.. we can hear the sighs of relief from here!
About the CyTech Endurance 2.5 HD Seat Pad
Because the chamois is so important, Iris use only the very best. The Italian CyTech Endurance 2.5 HD women’s-specific Elastic Interface® chamois is one of the most advanced seat pads on the market today. It features a 100% antibacterial and hypoallergenic micropolyester and is designed according to women’s anatomy, with a 12mm thickness. The different densities and special channels facilitate the evacuation of humidity.
The 2.5 chamois offers a more anatomic fit and improved protection throughout the pelvic tract. Very high density foams are applied under the top layer to deliver maximum performance on long distance rides. As an ex pro Iris certainly knows what works on the bike.
And YES, this bib tight is NOT BLACK! But a sophisticated dark brown colour that matches really well with the other AW21 items in the collection.

Iris Size Guide
Iris clothing is - in Iris' own words - 'a true pro fit'. That means they are deliberately cut to be a close, athletic fit. HOWEVER, if you're not part of the elite professional peloton (most of us aren't!), don't panic. Iris garments are stretchy enough that the sizing in these charts should be a realistic representation of what you can expect.
And bear in mind that Iris herself is a tall, Dutch woman, so wanted to avoid the trap of making kit only for tiny people! The length is a little more generous than some brands, although not dramatically. If you are still unsure, feel free to contact us.
