The unique halterneck design of these Aeron tights allows toilet breaks without the need to remove the neck strap, jersey or jacket. This innovation is made possible through the exceptional stretch and recovery properties of the halterneck fabric, ensuring maximum elasticity and durability - this means the back of the tights can be easily lowered with the strap still in place. No more faffing around. Genius.
Flashlight Technology
dhb Flashlight Technology (FLT) is all about considered placement of high-quality reflectives in the areas you need them most. Using knowledge gained from producing the Flashlight commuter collection, dhb is now incorporating these industry-leading technologies into their performance road cycling collections. With a subtle but effective reflective insert on each thigh, along with lower leg reflective details, these tights ensure you’ll be seen out on the road.
Top quality chamois
The centre of any pair of performance bib tights is the seat pad. All dhb legwear uses pads from Italian experts Elastic Interface®, whose unparalleled knowledge and experience goes into making the best chamois in cycling.
The women's specific Tour Air chamois used here is precision engineered from two densities of high performance foam, positioned to give you the right amount of padding where you need it, but without any excess bulk. The result is a 21st century chamois suitable for road and XC use, designed to keep you comfortable even on rides approaching 6 hours in length.
Keep warm and perform
dhb have made sure you’re protected and warm in cold weather by using an Italian Roubaix fleece-backed fabric from leading fabric mill Miti®, which provides thermal insulation and feels great next to the skin. Offering the ideal combination of insulation and breathability, this fabric works to regulate your temperature during even the hardest efforts.
The fleece-lined bib straps keep everything in place without being restrictive, and a rear mesh panel provides more breathability without compromising warmth.
Finished with strategically positioned reflective logos and quality YKK ankle zippers, these tights are the perfect addition to your winter wardrobe.

I've used the usual bib strap design, with two straps over the shoulder, and in the winter I am not a fan. In the cold, taking a warm layer off for toilet breaks is not fun. The halterneck design is brilliant: no need to take your warm jersey off or remove the strap, the back of the tights can easily be lowered with the halterneck strap still around your neck. I have to admit I was doing it all wrong to start with, taking the strap over my head and unzipping the jersey. Then I realised there is no need to undress at all! Clever. This is possible because of the halterneck fabric. It offers high stretch and the ability to return to its shorter length. It works very well, definitely stretchy enough to leave in place while you pull the tights down. The one question I kept being asked was whether I could feel the strap around my neck. The answer was no, not really, and not at all when in the riding position. They're made from an Italian Roubaix fleece which provides warmth without being too thick, and is moderately breathable. Working up a hill I could feel I was getting warm, but once on the flat again temperature regulation was back to normal. I rode in temperatures of 3-10°C and was very happy with the warmth they gave. I would possibly want something a little thicker for temperatures below that, or if there was a really chilly wind. There's no waterproofing, so they are a choice for cold, dry conditions. The tights fitted very comfortable. I tested a size 12, which is my normal sizing for kit. The tights hugged the legs nicely, not too tightly, and I didn't feel like I had to pull them up all the time. The halterneck strap did its job well, keeping them in place, and I could wear them happily all day. The length was fine too, for my 5ft 6in height. As ever, the chamois/pad is of utmost importance. dhb uses the Cytech Elastic Interface Tour HP, specifically designed for long distances (up to five hours, it says) using ultra-high-density foam, offering temperature control and breathability. As pads go, it was comfortable, with no rubbing or chafing. It sat where it should and provided the comfort I required for rides of any distance. I used the tights with different saddles and bikes with no problems at all. Verdict Great winter tights with cosy fleece inner and a halterneck strap design that means no undressing for toilet stops
