My back isn't the very best from my years of working in the coal mines and the bibs almost look like they could act as a back support with the compression and all.... thoughts?
I don't have any experience with Aero Tech Designs, but for bibs providing back support from compression, this hasn't happened in my experience. Bibs tend to have less compression around the waist than shorts, that is the main reason that many people like bibs.
