At $56 dollars (price that I see now) IMHO these are extremely overpriced right now. I've never had classic DHB bibs but I have a regular ones which I got for $19.67 (https://www.wiggle.com/dhb-bib-shorts?sku=100330313) and Aeron for $52.77.
Aeron bibs are much better and I can easily recommend them to anyone who wants to save money - solid bibs, no issues. In fact, everything from Aeron line seem to be good. The regular DHB bibs are made from a different material, pretty good at first but then they start to stretch and sag at the butt relatively fast, so I'm not sure that they are a good choice even for the price I got them.

I'm seeing $76 now for the Aeron. But yeah, the Aeron should be nicer. FWIW though, last Fall I got some Aeron 3/4 and was disappointed in the fabric and the stitching. Still worth what I paid but not the step up from the Classic I was expecting. The Classic bibs are holding up well for me, no sagging or wear. I haven't tried anything fancy like Assos or Rapha.
