They'll Think You Bought It Just To Look GoodThis is the jersey that brings Castelli's fabric and construction engineering together in one of the most refined jerseys we've ever made. The goal with this jersey was to make it as light as possible without sacrificing transparency, sun protection and convenient features like a zippered key pocket. We've brought in a new fabric that we call Oltre, which roughly translates to beyond, and it really goes beyond what you normally find in a jersey, with the horizontal stripes giving great breathability and stretch while providing good support for the pockets.The jersey will do double duty in your wardrobe: It's the jersey to reach for on hot days or big climbing days in the mountains. But it's also the jersey you'll pull out when you just want to look good, thanks to the no-sew construction around the sleeves and hem and the close attention to detail in every stitch, seam and component. It's designed with a fit that is close to body but slightly more relaxed than our race jerseys.Key Features: The deluxe, impossibly lightweight performance jersey, Oltre 70g stripe mesh base fabric, Stretch woven pocket reinforcement, No-sew welded sleeve and waist trim, Floating pocket construction with 3 main pockets and zippered key pocket, YKK® zipper, Sublimated overprint Superleggera logo on back, 22°-40°C / 70°-104°F, Weight:111 g.

The Castelli Pro Seamless Leg Warmer was developed in collaboration with the INEOS Grenadiers with the aim to create a better seamless warmer for those in-between weather days.Damp kit is often uncomfortable and can hinder your performance. Many seamless warmers use a nylon/Lycra blend that tends to hold moisture, but Castelli resolved this issue by introducing polyester into the unique fabric used for the Pro Seamless Leg Warmer.Due to their breathability, and being extremely warm for their weight, the leg warmers have proven a pro rider favourite. When the warmers are on their high stretch means you hardly feel them, and when you take them off, they occupy a fraction of the space that normal warmers would take up in your pockets. Key Features: Mid weight seamless warmer developed with the INEOS Grenadiers,Warm without causing overheating,Unique polyester, nylon, Lycra blend (78%, 15%, 7%),Folds up extra small,Temperature comfort range of 10° – 20°C,Weight 74g (Pair).
Light, Cool And Straight Out Of The FutureWe've been pushing the envelope on lightweight shorts since 2011 but have butted up against the limits of compromising durability for ever lighter weight. We needed to step back and find a better way.We examined what the short really needs to do: it needs to hold the seat pad securely in place while otherwise adding as little weight or fabric as absolutely necessary (without being transparent, obviously), and it needs to last a season of hard use. So we engineered a brand-new fabric using a woven rather than a knit that shaves 30% in weight for the same level of support and non-transparency. Then we worked with the world's leading mill to construct a gradient fabric that becomes increasingly lighter the farther down the leg it extends, with the last part weighing a mere 90 g/m2 compared to normal short fabric, which weighs around 220 g/m2.This fabric, while being insanely light, maintains a decent durability along with excellent abrasion resistance, at least against the saddle. We don't guarantee it against unplanned slides across the asphalt, so please keep the rubber side down!Note that while the short saves a mere 48 grams while dry, this means it also absorbs around 30% less moisture when you're sweating. So when you're sweating your way up the Alpe d'Huez you're actually saving closer to 150 grams.This short doesn't compromise on comfort. We use our top Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad, the spectacular striped mesh bibs from the Free Aero Race 4 Bibshort and a flat stretch woven leg gripper to keep everything in place.Key Features: The premium lightweight hot weather short, Gradient stretch woven fabric for minimal weight with optimum support, Ultralight fabric to reduce weight by up to 50% while improving durability, Minimalist stripe mesh bib to minimize weight and keep you cool, Integrated gripper elastic with exposed Lycra® to hold leg in place, Embossed logos and stretch silicone scorpion heat transfers, Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad, 20°-40°C / 68°-104°F, Weight:141 g.
"We can officially only rate these warmers at UPF 50+, but in our laboratory tests they actually blocked 99.8 percent of damaging UV rays. We used a polyester base that is not only more effective than nylon at blocking UV rays but is also much better at keeping you dry, which means these skins are better in both cooler and warmer conditions. We’ve kept the construction very clean to eliminate seams that can rub, and we used our double-sided silicone elastic to make sure they stay in place. They fold up extremely small, so they’re great to stick in your pockets for your next big mountain day."
