Q36.5 Salopette Dottore L1 Lady Bib Shorts
Not just a women pad into a bib short. We studied, researched, and calibrated a modern bib short for women based on the study that we did for the brother Salopette Dottore: an ergogenic women bib short for the needs, function, activity, and anatomic/ergonomic women body.
Gradual Compression
The original ergogenic philosophy of the Salopette L1 (which produced its signature “snug fit” as well as – more subtly – the vectorial elasticity of its leg panels, guiding an economical pedaling action) has been further tweaked through the addition of the jacquard woven “Y-pattern” found across the surface of the leg panels of il dottore.
This “y-pattern” serves not only the aforementioned aerodynamic purpose but also one of graduated compression. A close observation will reveal that the pattern has been used in 4 shifting levels of density, which correspond to the 4 different levels of graduated compression, from greatest compression at the bottom of the shorts (where the fabric is now left unhemmed, with an integrated gripper, to further reduce weight) to least at the top, around the groin area, thus stimulating an enhanced so-called “pump-effect” of blood circulation (also known as venous return).
Vectorial Elasticity
An extension of the Ergogenic pattern concept Vectorial Elasticity particularly refers to the intelligent alignment of panels so that the ergogenic qualities of the fabric (modulus force, elastic return, and stretch) are orientated in function of the direction of the pedalling action conferring a: stabilization of fibers which may be disturbed by bumps and other irregularities in the road surface; superior circulation thanks to the pump effect of the pressure applied to musculature; improvement in proprioception thanks to the uniform sensation of ‘second skin’ given by the material. The elasticity of the fabric along the warp’s vector is instead orientated to operate with least resistance on the downward motion of the foot and with the greatest return during the upward motion of the foot, thus reducing fatigue and guiding an economical pedalling action.
Ergogenic Pattern
An Ergogenic Pattern garment has been designed in such a way as that all panels and fabrics are tuned to support specific musculature groups during sporting activity. Garments designed with Ergogenic Patterns will be distinguished by their extremely snug but not constrictive feel and increased stability during the pedaling motion, as the fabric, cut and panel alignment support a balanced position and accordingly reduce muscular fatigue on longer or more intense rides.
