Ocean and San believes there truly is one bib to do it all. As such the California-based brand doesn’t make a training version, no race version, no pro version. Instead, they focus on one bib, perfected. The Solution Bibs ($255) are made in California and are the result of 13 months of rigorous research, design, development, and field testing. They’re designed for versatility and performance regardless of your riding style and they’re finally back in stock. Check out more at Ocean and San.

All of the best features that earned these bibs numerous accolades have remained, including the dense endurance chamois, soft and stretchy straps, droptail back panel design allowing easy bathroom breaks without removing your jersey, and of course, the pockets (one on each leg).
While the fabric is new, it’s still Oeko-Tex certified and made from recycled content, ensuring safe and responsible production.
