At $50/pair very cheap, sent email to vendor who replied -
"We receive all Pinarello products from the official Pinarello distributor in Australia.
Please let us know if there's anything else we can help with.
Thank you,
Open Road"
Someone on here (BNA) would know them if any good, won't go there.

Just buy 2 pair.
It is not much money, can't go wrong if you dont mind the branding being on them.

3/4 Inch thick chamois nah OR they could be OK too, thats why I asked to give them
a second chance, got some newish nice LECOLS x 3, Bontrager x 2, don't really need any more.
But if any positive feedback here or anywhere I looked - I'd grab 'em.

For $49 a go I might give the Pinarello's a shot - even though I generally don't do bibs.

I’m most definitely ‘small’ so there were plenty of bigger sets left!
Feels wrong buying bike branded knicks but for that price I’ll take the fashion hit.

I'd feel more confident with these - "https://www.this link is broken/au/ ... prod154920" at same money.

The quality of the Pinarello bibshorts honestly doesn't look that great, though it's always hard to tell without extended usage. I'll report back when I've been for a ride in them. Slightly down on the finish standard of the Castelli I normally wear.
As a bonus they seem to have mistakenly shipped me two Castelli Potenza jerseys as well which they're selling for $129 each, so more than my total order individually. Yes, I am letting them know!

OpenRoad have been excellent to deal with as well - when I informed them of their error in shipping me an extra $300 odd in bonus jerseys, they thanked me for my honesty and have sent out a return paid package 'including a few small gifts as thanks'.
That's excellent customer service.

I wouldn't recommend them. Just not particularly comfortable.
