Anyone with Campagnolo Bib experience?
I'm looking for anyone that can comment on how Campy bib sizes run. I'm looking at XXXL Heritage or Techmotion bibs for myself at 6'5", 117kg, 42" waist, 45" hips, 48" chest.

Campagnola stuff is Euro sized I believe... Runs much smaller. 3X Euro is closer to an American Large

Campy's size chart would suggest otherwise. Hence, the enquiry if anyone had first hand experience.

From personal experience, Campagnolo bib shorts run in between Assos/Castelli and Pearl Izumi sizing. At 5'10" and 160+lb with a longish torso and 31" waist (without sucking in), I wear a nicely snug medium in Assos and Castelli but a medium PI will be floppy. The Campagnolo bib shorts were a little looser than the Assos/Castelli but not too much, so it's actually closer to euro sizing than PI (American) sizing, although not at the "starved Italian" level.

Santini does carry sizes above 3xl - all the way up to 6xl..Of course you have to buy 2 sizes up because of the way they are cut.. It has been a long time since I have ridden Campy bibs.. I am close to your height and a little less on the waist size and find the TIR (3xl) size Assos bibs to be a great fit. I would also consider the 3xl Hincapie Bibs for taller riders.
