The top 5 best women’s winter cycling bib tights

In this article I’m going to give you an overview of the best women’s winter cycling bib tights.

With the help of these thermal cycling bibs you’ll be able to withstand sub-zero temperatures should you decide to do so. That’s because these bibs are fully fleece insulated and have added protection to the front of the garment, where you’re most exposed to the effects of the wind.

Furthermore water-repellant characteristics are part of these cycling bibs. So you’ll be adequately protected from riding in the rain and road spray.

With all that out of the way, let’s take a look at the list of best women’s winter cycling bib tights.

Giordana Women's G-Shield Thermal Bib Tight

The Giordana Women’s G-Shield Thermal Bib Tight is a high-quality premium thermal bib tight that has everything going for it.

First off, the bib tight is almost seamless, drastically lowering the chance of water seeping through. Furthermore the thermal fleece-lined Blizzard™ fabric with Aqua Zero Eco™ is fully water-resistant and windproof, which makes this an all-season option for people who want to ride in cold conditions.

The fabric has an immensely great fit, with varying amounts of thickness to mold the garment around your body and be out of the way when pedaling.

Featuring the 4-layer 11 mm high-end Cirro S-W chamois, it’s a performance-oriented cycling short that’s actually thinner than their next-in-line 13 mm Cirro chamois, but still packs a pressure relief layer with a waffled texture. This is again pressed onto another thin layer with open cell padded elements for the ultimate pressure relief where it’s necessary.

Probably The best-of-the-best Giordana has to offer in the water-resistant bib tight department.

Giordana Women's FR-C Pro Thermal Bib Tight

The Giordana Women’s FR-C Pro Thermal Bib Tight is a premium cold-weather bib tight.

It has the Cirro S-W chamois used in their products that need to produce the best results for their riders. In this case, a 4 layer dual-density seat pad.

The tight is made from Super Roubaix fleece-lined fabric, which is a windproof, super-soft, synthetic compression fabric.

It’s the best windproof thermal tight in Giordana’s lineup, and probably one of the most comfortable in the market altogether.

Castelli Polare W Bibtight

If you’re looking for the best-insulated, warmest, most windproof thermal cycling bib in Castelli’s lineup, the Castelli Polare W Bibtight is one to consider.

The entire front is made from GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® X-Fast, ensuring wind-chill is virtually non-existent, while breathability remains at a maximum. Furthermore this fabric also has great water-resistant capabilities, which is further enhanced by the Nano Flex 3G material placed on the back and lower legs. Nano Flex 3G is Castelli’s proprietary way of making their thermal bibs water-resistant.

The KISS Air2 Donna pad sits just below their most expensive Progetto X2 Air one. This means that you get all the bells and whistles of that more premium one except for the silicone pads, which will prove to be more than adequate to keep you riding comfortably for many miles.

Camlock zippers at the hems, reflective elements, and stretch straps with a mesh back panel finish this high-quality design for people that like their winter riding in subzero temperatures.

Castelli Meno Wind W Bibtight

The Castelli Entrata Wind Bibtight is the first entry in their lineup that promises to be almost completely windproof.

This bib tight achieves windproofness with Thermoflex windproof fabric. The Thermoflex Core2 material ensures an increased ability to wick away perspiration.

What this means is that you get a winter-ready thermal tight which will keep you warm and that’s a bit more affordable than the most expensive tights out there.

A KISS Air2 Donna is the seat pad of choice for this tight, and if you don’t know already, it’s an anatomically shaped dual-density layer, which provides the right kind of support in areas where more pressure is applied.

Gore Ability Thermo Bib Tights+

The Gore Ability Thermo Bib Tights+ are well-designed thermal cycling bibs made from the company’s well-known fabric.

As is clear from its name, it’s entirely made from GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabric, which is the latest and greatest the company has to offer. It promises increased moisture-wicking characteristics, while still being fully windproof and highly water-resistant.

The ADVANCED Brand Core seat pad is perfectly comfortable, though I would have loved to see a more high-end chamois. It does have the Gore WINDSTOPPER® cup to prevent this delicate area from freezing.

The cycling bib is very easy to put on with zippers everywhere.

There’s no denying the quality of the Gore Windstopper fabric, which is proven by the fact that it’s used by dozens of other brands. So if you want to go all out with Gore Windstopper fabric in your cycling tights, there’s no other option in the market than this one.
