Test: Finisseur Pro Climber bib shorts

The Finisseur Pro range continues to incorporate products that meet the needs of the most demanding cyclists. The Finisseur Pro Climber bib shorts are the perfect choice for riders looking for high performance on the hottest summer days. Specially designed for high temperatures, these bib shorts offer cutting-edge technical features to take comfort and performance to the very top.

Exceptional fabric technology and ventilation

Made with highly breathable Italian fabrics, the micro-perforated panels on the legs of the Finisseur Pro Climber bib shorts ensure maximum ventilation. This allows for greater evaporation of sweat and keeps the skin cool and dry during times of heavy perspiration. The elasticated leg loops are designed with an innovative technology that reduces the surface area in contact with the skin without compromising their compressive power. This creates increased ventilation and a cooler feeling in the legs, even in the hottest conditions. The lightweight mesh covering the central back and abdomen also contributes to better ventilation and comfort on demanding routes and in high temperatures. The fabrics have UV 50+ protection to complement the other properties that make it ideal for the sunniest times of the year.

Chamois for long-lasting comfort

The chamois pad on these Finisseur Pro Climber bib shorts is the Paris Men model, made in Italy by Elastic Interface. It is designed for medium distances on road and MTB and offers strategically distributed double padding in the ischial and perineal areas for long-lasting comfort during rides of up to 6 hours. In addition, the Paris Men chamois pad incorporates a central channel that reduces pressure on the prostate and improves blood circulation. The combination of the multidirectional curvature and the flat surface ensures a perfect fit and increased stability in the saddle thanks to the gradual transition zones. 

The chamois is perforated at the top, which complements the characteristics of the bib shorts, increasing air permeability, and reducing skin temperature and moisture. The fabric of the pad is EIT X-Tract, made of 80% polyamide and 20% elastane. It has a dual-channel structure: the first channel absorbs and directs sweat downwards while the second channel contributes to its evaporation. 

Maximum performance

On the move, the shorts feel very comfortable and despite the lightweight feel, the elasticated inner silicone leg straps prevent the shorts from moving during pedalling. In addition, the design reduces the surface area in contact with the skin, allowing for greater ventilation and preventing moisture build-up. This helps to keep the legs cool and dry, which is especially important in conditions of high perspiration during the summer.

The Finisseur Pro Climber bib shorts are designed with maximum comfort in mind. Made of soft, stretchy materials, they are wide for better pressure distribution and end at the top of the back and join the mesh panel at the back. When pedalling upright and testing the overall flexibility and stability of the garment, the garment always stays in place. 

Bib shorts for extreme conditions

In short, the Finisseur Pro Climber bib shorts are a cycling garment designed to perform at its best in conditions of intense perspiration, especially when climbing long mountain passes in the summer sun. It achieves this with technologies such as micro-perforated leg loops and the Elastic Interface Paris Men chamois, equipped with breathable fabrics, while its bib straps and leg elastics offer great comfort. The combination of breathable technical fabrics and antibacterial treatment make it an ideal choice for cyclists looking to tackle their summer challenges in comfort and style.
