The top model "C 400 Compression Bib Short" from Skins is designed to improve blood circulation and prevent vibrations by compressing the muscles, resulting in better regeneration.
The elaborately tailored trousers with flat seams are very comfortable to wear; the cuffs are barely noticeable but hold the trouser legs in place well. The straps are high at the back, but could be a little more elasticated. The trousers are cut high at the front, which warms the tummy a little too much in hot weather. The padding is well structured and reduces pressure points. Despite its size, there is no nappy feeling as the fabric is not too thick and is soft and elastic. The effect of the compression could not be assessed during our test.
