Albion Men’s ABR1 Pocket Bib Shorts
The Albion Men’s ABR1 Pocket Bib Shorts are built specifically for ultra-endurance racing, long-distance touring, and demanding multi-day gravel adventures. Updated for 2025 using feedback from winners of the world’s most grueling endurance events, these shorts combine high-level compression, all-day pad support, and clever cargo storage to keep riders comfortable over extended miles in unpredictable UK weather and terrain.
Unique Three-Pocket Cargo System
Equipped with two accessible mesh pockets on the legs and a secure rear side-entry pocket, the shorts provide convenient storage for extra nutrition, spares, or a phone without requiring you to reach into jersey pockets while riding.
Higher Gauge Knit & Polypropylene Straps
The 2025 update features a higher gauge knit main fabric for enhanced muscular compression and reduced fatigue, paired with new polypropylene-knitted bib straps that rapidly pull moisture away from the skin for optimal temperature regulation.
Elastic Interface Ultra Pad & Rear Guard
An endurance-specific Elastic Interface chamois with a recycled face sheet cushions against road buzz and trail chatter, while Albion's Rear Guard, an invisible internal panel above the pad, drastically improves durability against saddle friction and gritty spray.
Fit & Performance
Designed with an anatomical, reduced-panel construction and 4-way stretch recycled fabric, the ABR1 shorts fit close to the body without restricting movement. The wide silicone leg grippers keep the hem anchored over long pedal strokes, flatlock seams eliminate chafing, and UPF 50+ UV protection makes them ideal for full-day UK spring and summer epics.
