The Giordana FR-C Thermal Bib Knicker is built for riders who push the pace when the weather turns cool, delivering the perfect balance of warmth, flexibility, and performance for high-intensity efforts in milder climates. Constructed from premium 250g Blizzard fabric with Acqua Zero water-repellent treatment, it provides a compressive, aerodynamic fit while shielding against light moisture and road spray. A brushed thermal interior along the thighs, lower back, and front of the shins retains body heat and regulates temperature, while strategically placed breathable panels around the knees and calves optimize airflow to prevent overheating during hard efforts. The higher waistline enhances core support and comfort, and the moisture-wicking bib straps—featuring a mesh back panel—maximize breathability when layering. Reflective calf accents improve visibility in low light, and elastic cuffs at mid-calf ensure a smooth, secure fit without the need for zippers.
For long days in the saddle, the FR-C Thermal Bib Knicker integrates an updated saddle panel with a ceramic coating and Cordura® insert, offering superior abrasion resistance and durability. Inside, a soft brushed microfiber lining adds comfort and warmth, while Giordana’s Body Clone technology ensures a second-skin fit that moves seamlessly with the rider. The top-tier Omniform Cirro S chamois, infused with Aloe Vera and shaped with the Copa Mondiale contour, delivers unmatched cushioning, antimicrobial protection, and pressure relief for extended rides. Made in Italy from an 85% Nylon / 15% Elastane blend, the FR-C Thermal Bib Knicker is recommended for temperatures from the mid-60s°F down to the low-40s°F—perfect for riders seeking pro-level comfort and performance without the full-length coverage of a winter tight.
