Pinebury introduce cargo bib shorts made in RWS Certified Nuyarn Merino wool

Maine-based Pinebury has launched the first bib shorts made with Nuyarn Merino wool – a material which the manufacturer claims is “8.8 times more durable than traditionally spun merino”.

Pinebury, a business which aims to “push boundaries in performance and material innovation – without compromising on purpose or integrity”, makes its garments in the USA, in small batches, “with a focus on quality, performance, and detail”.

One thing is certain: A Merino wool cargo bib short certainly grabs attention, and, potentially, raises a few eyebrows. And that’s intentional.

The new cargo bib shorts feature a proprietary fabric developed exclusively for Pinebury. Compared to traditional wool, Nuyarn offers greater durability, superior stretch and recovery, and dries up to five times faster – all without sacrificing the natural comfort and breathability that makes Merino ideal for endurance riding.

Designed for long days in the saddle, the bibs feature “a supportive, ride-tested fit and a multi-density, high-performance chamois pad designed for lasting comfort. Two side cargo pockets and a rear pocket offer secure storage for long days or minimalist setups. A 2-inch elastic ‘Power Grip’ is integrated into the inside hem of the leg openings to keep the shorts securely in place without restricting movement.
