The Semifreddo Bib Tights gets their ‘Semifreddo’ name from an Italian dessert, one that’s chilled but not frozen. Just the kind of weather conditions they excel in. They’re the perfect tight for days too cold for shorts and leg warmers combo but too mild for full thermal winter tights. Over the thighs and around the hips Castelli have used their soft, flexible and fleecy Thermoflex fabric. As you generate body heat, the fleecy inner does a wonderful job of hugging that warmth close to the skin. The lower leg uses Castelli’s Nano Flex stretch woven fabric. Lighter in weight than the upper, it ensures you don’t overheat, and water-repellency ensures wet roads aren’t a problem either. Holding your tights comfortably but firmly in place are minimalist bib straps. Made from mesh they also allow for excellent breathability, regulating temperature as your effort levels rise and fall. Zipper-less ankles give a smooth fit and make for a better fit inside shoe covers. There are also reflective tabs to keep you visible during low-light conditions. Men’s Progetto X² Air Seamless Seat Pad The pro-level Progetto X² Air Seamless seat pad utilises ventilating perforations to keep you cooler and drier on endurance road rides. The design allows air and moisture to flow directly to the surface fabric for quick evaporation maintaining dryness. The seat pad is constructed in 3-layer components, each dedicated to a specific purpose to create the most comfortable seat pad available.

Even with an electric fan on full blast, the efforts of a tough training session on the turbo trainer will soon have you building a sweat. This is why the Insider 2 Bib Shorts have been designed to be as light as possible and to be as breathable as possible, with no superfluous details needed. Castelli makes use of lightweight 195 g/m² Lycra® for the body. This keeps bulk down, flexibility up and the excellent breathability needed to deal with your efforts. There are also mesh side panels, allowing for the cooling effect of extra airflow to come into play. Bib straps are kept minimalist, with an open-knit design aiding breathability. The raw-cut leg endings continue the minimalist theme, offering a smooth and comfortable fit without excess bulk. Inside the shorts, the Progetto X² Air Skin seat pad is ideally suited to indoor training, with excellent moisture control and a super-soft next to skin layer.

The majority of the tights are composed of Castelli’s 3rd generation Nano Flex material. Nano Flex 3G is brushed-backed to offer luxurious warmth and with excellent stretch, it won’t restrict a fluid pedal stroke either. Not only that, but it’s also highly breathable to prevent cold sweat build-up and does a good job of blocking much of the wind. Lastly, it also features a nano-technology water-repellent finish, brushing off damp and drizzly weather conditions. To the lower part of the legs, you’ll find lighter Nano Flex stretch woven fabric. This is lightly brushed on the inside, trapping body heat. But excellent breathability prevents you from overheating. And it’s great at shrugging off spray from the road thanks to its nanotechnology water-repellent finish. Simplicity and functionality are key features of the rest of the tights. Minimalist bib straps will soon disappear from your mind while raw-cut ankle ends removes the need for zippers while still keeping a firm fit and working well with overshoes.

The Endurance 3 Cycling Bib Shorts elevates traditional cycling shorts to a whole new level of long-ride comfort. Starting with the fabric, this is Castelli’s Endurance Evolution material. Incredibly soft against the skin, it’s also excellent at dealing quickly with moisture while also providing your hard-working muscles with compressive support. At the end of the legs, the renowned GIRO³ leg grippers hold the shorts beautifully in place. When it comes to the fit, Castelli always excels. The Endurance 3s are no different. Seams are carefully placed around the hips to create the perfect fit on the bike. And the careful tailoring ensures you’ll enjoy excellent freedom of movement as you pedal. Mesh bib straps to the upper body hold the shorts in place and allow for improved airflow and breathability. Progetto X2 Air Seat Pad Inside the shorts, you’ll find Castelli’s premier Progetto X2 Air seat pad. This exceptional seat pad has an incredibly soft and seamless upper face material, delivering superb comfort. The next layer, Castelli’s infinitely variable thickness padding, imparts just the right level of support where you need it, thicker under the sit bones and thinner on the sides and under the perineum. The results are intense comfort with reduced bulk.
It's the Nano Flex 3G fabric used that makes the Women's Tutto Nano Bib tight such a capable performer in all types of weather and riding conditions. When the clouds burst and rain begins to fall then, and here comes the tech, the nanotechnology microfilament mechanical water repellent finish combined with a short-chain chemical DWR finish prevents water from seeping in, maintaining your comfort for longer. Reduced seams also enhance protection and the thermal performance keeps cold out and warmth in. Elsewhere, the mesh bib straps keep airflow to the body optimised, helping regulate temperature and prevent clamminess as you build up body warmth. With the cold and wet conditions dealt with the focus turns to on-the-saddle support, and here Castelli have used their renowned Kiss Air2 Donna women's specific seat pad. It incorporates as many of the features and comfort as the top-of-the-line Progetto x2 seat pad but at a more affordable price. A seamless and super soft, brushed microfibre top maximizes comfort and fit. It's flexible to move with you and a bacteriostatic treatment helps stop saddle sores and infection. Dual-density and infinitely variable thickness foam give you the perfect cushioning for every part of the pad -maximum thickness and density in the ischial zone, tapering to moderate thickness in the perineum, and minimum thickness at the perimeter. Rain showers, sunshine, cold, cloud, whatever the weather the Women's Tutto Nano Bib tight is Castelli's answer to that winter conundrum of what to wear for a day of riding that sees almost every season make an appearance.
