About

“Go faster for longer” that’s the thinking behind our Corsa Bib Shorts, which are specially engineered for those who spend hours in the saddle. We firmly believe that the Bib Short should be an extension of your bike more than just something you wear when you ride it. Each element and panel serves a unique purpose and is engineered to ensure that when they work together, the whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts. 

We’ve hand-selected the Racing Lycra made in Italy, which constitutes the core fabric in this performance garment. This fabric was chosen because of its unparalleled shape retention and flexibility.

Each hand stitched Lycra panel has been subjected to continuous testing until we could tailor them to respond dynamically to the movement of your body, ensuring comfort in any position. The leg panels feature our high performance Italian Lycra. Firmly kept in place on your leg by our Polyester Elastane Snapback Elastic which has been selected for its durability and elasticity retention properties. Our VitaGrip Silicon Leg Grippers are inset onto the surface of the elastic and are precision spaced to ensure your bib maintains its position even when you are pushing yourself to your limits.

A unique structure of the fabric stitching around the Chamois pad is designed to reduce saddle slide and give you more stability, while keeping the Chamois just where you need it. The Chamois features Ciovita’s distinctive 3 layer design with four way stretch fabric outer layer, which complements our Lycra weave to deliver better movement and comfort; a perforated foam inner layer ensures breathability and temperature control; and our third layer is made up of high density, but breathable Vita-Foam for maximum comfort. Along the back panels we have placed ultra-breathable Polygiene™ mesh featuring antibacterial and moisture control and hand stitched onto our Polyester Elastane Snapback Elastic Shoulder straps.

Writer's block

Ours is about 3 feet by 3 feet, and on our left is the account's block. The sales block is down the hall.

We're joking. Obviously.

Ours is at least 5 by 5, and on Wednesdays we're allowed to write in coffee shops to maintain the illusion that we're "successful" and "writerly".

Coming up with a write up for the simple sake of a write up does, however, become difficult when we're staring complete lack of creativity right in the face. But apparently asking management to cancel all the deals for the day isn't a viable fix.

As they so delicately put it, it'd be like a comedian having the option to suddenly cancel a show if they're not feeling up to it. Not on our watch, they said. You'll do a write up whether you like it or not, they said. And be funny, they said.

So here we are, doing a write up and being funny.
