About the Product
Engineered to keep you cool and focussed on long and hot summer roads. Experience elevated comfort and support as you pedal through the heat.
The Women's Hors Categorie Lightweight Bib Shorts are built for long summer rides where comfort is a priority. An lighterweight version of our bestselling Hors Categorie Bib Shorts, without compromising on durability or support. Crafted from our most luxurious technical fabrics, these bib shorts are designed to move effortlessly with your body, keeping you cool, dry, and confident on every mile.
The main fabric weight is 135gsm compared to the Hors Categorie Bib Shorts which feature a fabric weight of 160gsm, achieving a second-skin feel that’s breathable yet supportive. Ideal for hot, high-effort days on the bike, you’ll feel light and free, with materials that stretch and contour naturally with your movement.
Perforated, raw-cut straps offer featherlight support that stays in place, with a barely-there feel and plenty of stretch and recovery. A streamlined fit with minimal seams helps reduce friction, so you can focus on the ride – not your clothing.
A female-specific, multi-density chamois pad with a premium gel insert designed to cushion and support you through hours in the saddle, whether you’re tackling hills or cruising through valleys.
Tested, refined, and created for women who go the distance, the Hors Categorie Lightweight Bib Shorts are a celebration of form, function, and freedom on the bike.

Reviews
Comfortable and lightweight
These are my first pair of Le Col bib shorts. They are comfortable and lightweight, perfect for riding in a hot environment. Fit I would said is more aligned with US sizing than the European sizing I am used to (which tends to run a bit smaller than US sizing, IMO). I ordered a S and that will be fine, but I probably should have ordered the XS.
