White bib shorts

[arryb]

I know it's a strange request. I've just got a very nice red cycling top from my grandad for christmas and, for some strange reason, fancy getting some white bib shorts to go with it (I have a pair of black ones already), however, I can't seem to find any. I'm usually size medium and my budget is circa £50, but cheaper = better as long as quality doesn't suffer. Assos do some nice ones but they're mega expensive

Any tip-offs greatly appreciated. Thanks, Arry.

Have a look on Wiggle at their DHB range, perhaps the Finchdean which is marginally over budget but gets great reviews.

Castelli do white/red bib shorts. They are cheaper than Assos I think.

I'll try to find a link

This is all I can find - a couple of options in there...

Probikekit.com have a few special edition (e.g National champs) bib shorts which are predominantly white for around £40-50

As a general rule, and there are a few, you cannot wear white shorts unless you are Tour material. It's an unspoken rule. Please consider what i have said.

Is this why I can't find any anywhere? Why is this an unspoken rule and why have I not heard it before?

When wet, white cycling shorts are effectively transparent .........

Only 2 types of cyclists allowed to wear white shorts, ladies and professionals. Everyone else, it just should not be done! No point in debating it really.

I usually wear either padded boxers or two pairs of shorts anyway I get the point though, I'll have to go for a different colour

After close encounters with cars/horses/peds, the brown stain shows up well and is difficult to remove.
