Just wondering if anyone has tried the 2015 version of Rapha's pro team or classic lightweight bibs

The older versions got poor reviews as apparently sometimes the leg grippers began to fail after a few washes. Rapha say they've improved this with a new design but can anyone verify this?

Thanks in advance

    I've got two pairs, they work really well. Rapha also swapped out my two old pairs (2 years old and with the issue) and replaced for free, very happy with the customer service. The design has been completely changed.

    Got white and pink ones recently in same size. Pink one is too tight on the thighs so having to go up a size. White was fine.
