Q36.5 Gregarius Essential Half Knickers - Womens Info
Q36.5 Gregarius Essential Half Knickers - Womens are bib knickers with a three-quarter length leg, made for riders who want more leg coverage than a standard women's bib short. Q36.5 describes them as having the same fit and feel as its Gregarius Essential half shorts for women, extended to a longer leg. They are made in Italy and weigh 175 grams in a size medium, according to Q36.5.
Chamois and Fit
The pad is Q36.5's proprietary Q-Lab Air Chamois, which the brand introduced with this model. Q36.5 does not publish chamois density or construction details on the product page, so how it feels over a long day is something to judge by wearing it. The cut follows the Gregarius women's line, and the longer leg offers more thigh coverage on cooler mornings and on rides where a short is not enough but full tights are too much.
Fabric
The fabric is 71 percent polyamide, 26 percent elastane and 3 percent silver. Polyamide and elastane are the standard pairing for stretch, shape retention and support in cycling shorts, and silver content is commonly used in technical garments for odor control. Q36.5 lists the garment's features as breathability, muscle support and a stability guarantee, though the brand does not detail how each is built into the fabric.
Sizing
The knickers come in black in sizes XS to XL. Q36.5's size chart covers chest, waist and hip measurements, so check your hip measurement against the chart before ordering. If you are between sizes, the stretch fabric and a bib design make sizing less sensitive than with a waistband short, but fit is still personal and the Q36.5 chart is the best guide.
The RA Perspective
These are the longer-leg version of the Gregarius Essential half shorts, and the main reason to pick them is leg coverage. Three-quarter length knickers sit between shorts and tights, which makes them useful in shoulder-season riding when a short leaves your knees cold and tights feel like too much.
Q36.5 says the pad is a new Q-Lab Air Chamois, and the brand has not published much about its construction. We have not worn these yet, so we cannot tell you how the pad feels past a couple of hours. If you already know how Q36.5's other chamois suit you, that is the best guide.
A few things to know. The garment is 71 percent polyamide, 26 percent elastane and 3 percent silver, and it weighs 175 grams in a medium. Sizes run XS to XL, so check your hip measurement against Q36.5's chart, and the listing on our site is black only.
We would point this at riders who want a bib knicker for spring and fall rides, or who simply prefer more leg coverage than a standard short.
