Sportful BodyFit bib short review
Twin-density fabric has flex and compression
GBP £85.00 RRP Skip to view deals
Sportful’s shorts employ lightweight fabric and slim leg grippers. The BodyFit shape is close-fitting and the lower back and bib sections cling to the skin. Twin-density fabric on the shorts offers flex and compression on the outer and inner thighs respectively.
The pad is minimal but extremely comfortable, but the slim, inch-wide braces tend to roll over themselves, leading to mid-ride adjustments. We prefer the BodyFits on hotter days because the scant material can be too cool when the sun isn’t out.
