According to the product specialist

Pros
The Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna seat pad offers a soft contact surface against your skin and minimises chafing and irritation.
Silicone grippers at the leg ends prevent the shorts from moving up while cycling so you don't have to pull at them all the time.
The wide elastic waistband offers a firm grip on the hips without causing a tight feel that is uncomfortable while breathing.
As the women-specific fit takes the female anatomy into account, the shorts offer the right support where they need to.
This cycling short is both snug and comfortable on your body.
The Endurance Evolution fabric makes this short very suitable for cycling on hot summer days.
The GIRO3 grippers hold the short's legs in place.
The KISS Air2 seat pad guarantees lasting comfort during long rides.
The renewed seat pad enhances ventilation and comfort on longer rides.
The hipClick fit contributes to the short's stability during movement.
The lightweight design makes the short comfortable in warm weather and during high-intensity rides.
The Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna seat pad has a seamless top layer to minimise the chance of chafing while cycling long distances.
The raw-cut finish at the waist increases comfort and stretch, preventing the shorts from digging into your sides.
The soft waist finish allows for a pleasant fit in the belly area because there are no tight bands.
Forza2 fabric contains plenty of Lycra for effective yet comfortable compression that helps reduce muscle vibration while pedalling.
Cons
Due to the lack of bib straps, the shorts may shift slightly when you are in a very deep cycling position, but the wide waistband largely compensates for this.
The light compression may make the fabric feel rather tight at first but eventually improves blood flow in your muscles.
As this cycling short has no bib straps, it may eventually begin to slide down a bit around the waist.
The design without bib straps offers less support than a bib short but makes this half short lighter and simpler.
The high compression of the fabric may make the shorts feel tight when putting them on but provides the leg support you need while cycling.
The lack of bib straps makes the shorts more likely to sag a bit when you are in a deep cycling position, but the elastic waistband helps to keep everything well in place.
