Bib shorts that don't ride up
I have short legs (30.5" inseam), my thighs must be skinny because all my bib shorts ride up and I keep having to pull them down during a ride.
I have Q36.5 Dottore and Gregarius. The Dottore stay in place better but I cannot afford them unless they are on sale but they are the best bibs i have used. Neither of them have silicone grippers. I used to use La Passione and they were pretty good but the last pair disintegrated prematurely and it looks like they are going out of business. Any others to consider? Budget is up to $250. |

I'd suggest eliel in their short length inseam. They fit well and stay in place.

If the Q36.5 stuff works for you, try their Essential bibs. A bit more compression than the Gregarious with a similar pad and finish to the legs, just no dyneema panel under the seat. I wear the Gregarius most, and agree with you that the Dottores are my favorite bibs (bar the AssosCampionissimo s9), but the Essential are in the same league. Definitely the best “daily driver” bibs I’ve owned.

I found Dottore at Bikeinn for a really good price.
I never ordered from them before but might take a chance. Also Velocio Concepts are on sale in red, not sure how they compare. |

Velocio are pretty compressive and stay in place. Can also check out what they have under the renewed program to save some money if they have your size.

I almost exclusively use Velocio Concept. They definitely stay in place. They are quite compressive, so much so that they have a guide showing you how to put them on.

How durable are the Velocio Concepts?
How is the pad as far as thickness and density? I tend to like a denser pad. One thing that impresses me about the Q36.5 Dottore is even after more than a year of use they show no wear and have not stretched out at all. No other Bibshorts I have used have been this durable. |

Voler bibs are in that budget range and work very well for me. Their Peleton models are probably cut too generous for your needs but the other models should work. Good luck.
