Technical Details and Features

The core material is an advanced processed jersey fabric with very high coverage without transparency and reduced weight; the embossed texture is produced by a special manufacturing process. The bibs are constructed with a multi-piece cut that optimizes ergonomics and offers muscle support as well as abdominal control; the straps combine a soft back panel with laser-cut openings for ventilation and an elastic front/shoulder material with stable rebound. At the legs, internal, non-slip bands ensure an even fit. Additionally, the bibs feature UV protection, antibacterial and anti-odour properties as well as increased abrasion resistance; depending on market information there are also reflective details, a weight of approx. 165 g and the material blend 70% Nylon / 21% Spandex / 9% Polyester with UV protection factor 90 listed. The Pro seat pad uses Resistex Carbon filaments for bacteriostatic, antistatic and thermoregulating advantages.

Use Cases and Benefits

The Hard 2.3 Pro are made for long road rides, mountain passes and extended training in everyday Swiss life – from an after-work ride around Lake Zurich to alpine weekends. The muscle support helps keep form stable over hours, while the Carbon seat pad with bacteriostatic action supports hygiene on long distances. Thanks to the high breathability of the straps and the secure fit of the leg endings, the shorts stay reliably in place even during intervals or on the trainer. The pronounced UV protection is especially useful on higher passes, and the high material coverage prevents unwanted transparency during intense sessions.

Fit and Feel

The fit is race-oriented and close-fitting, designed for an ergonomic position on the saddle without promoting pressure or chafing points. The panel system distributes pull and support evenly, while the elastic straps with laser-cut openings on the back keep things fresh. The anti-slip leg endings hold the edges flat against the skin, reducing flutter and keeping the profile sleek. The color option Green Ivy provides a modern, unobtrusive accent that pairs well with jerseys in black, anthracite or natural tones.
