How do you buy bib shorts? After looking at the size charts, not sure which size to order. Waist is 33, which means order medium; but I'm tall (6'-3"😉 and inseam is 34, which means order X-large (which would fit like a sack).
Thanks...

you need to try on (with jocks PLEASE!) as each manufacturer has a specific feel and fit.
If Magnus Backstedt and Eros Poli can find shorts, I'm sure you have no issue....and like pretty much everyting else in this sport, buy the best you can afford.Good luck 🙂

ElPerro, I'm pretty close to your dimensions (6'2/34 waist) and have had good luck with Castelli's YPro3 bibshorts in XL. Castelli's sizes seem to run very small, so I order XXL for jersies.
