Extreme Heat. High Altitude. No Problem. The design of the Climber's 3.0 SL Cycling Jersey was a direct result of the needs of pro riders needing a jersey for racing in the high mountains and extreme heat of summer races. While few of us regularly experience the rigours of racing those soaring peaks and hot mountain passes, the products created off the back of them benefit us all. The first thing to note is the weight or rather lack of it. A size large comes in at a featherweight 106 grams and the open fabrics ensure as much cooling airflow as possible, at both low and high speeds. Quick-drying fabrics prevent discomfort from sweat build-up and has the advantage of preventing you from feeling the chill from cold sweat windchill when plunging down the descents. Even on damp days, it doesn’t soak up moisture, so much so the pros often use this jersey even when it’s wet. Ready to Race The fit is also very much race-focused. In fact, the patterning is taken from the super-smooth Aero Race Jersey, delivering aerodynamically efficient performance alongside its lack of weight. Elbow-length sleeves, with raw-cut edges, and airflow shoulders both reduce drag too. And for bright sunny days on the bike, the back blocks more than 90% of UV rays. Even if you’re not racing or tackling the searing heat and steep slopes of the Alps this summer, you’ll still love and benefit from how cool, streamlined and light this jersey is. Light. Dry. Fast. Bring on summer cycling.
It's the material that Castelli uses for their Unlimited Trail Baggy Shorts that makes them so suited to your off-road cycling adventures. Pull them on and you'll notice how light and flexible the fabric is. At just 165 grams per square meter, and including the stretch of elastane, the fabric gives you baggy cycling shorts that deliver unrivalled pedalling comfort and the easy movement needed for hitting trails. They may be light, but they're also tough thanks to Cordura® yarns used in the fabric. A DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish means light rain and muddy puddles won't soak in and the shorts are quick-drying too - ideal or changeable riding conditions. If the sun is out and you're feeling hot, zippered ventilation openings that run the full length of the legs allow cool air to flow. Castelli cut the shorts with a loose fit, again to aid in easy movement, yet the adjustable webbing waist belt ensures there's no annoying slippage when riding.
As dropped bar bikes become more versatile, with wider tyres, more relaxed geometries and riders heading off the beaten track for adventures, the Unlimited Allroad Cycling Jersey matches this more laid-back, relaxed style of riding. That’s not to say it’s lacking in performance, far from it. Castelli knows a thing or two about keeping you comfortable, and here they use a high-performance fabric to keep you feeling dry and fresh, wherever you’re exploring. The fit of the jersey is more generous than Castelli’s usual ‘race fit’, the focus on easy mobility and comfort, rather than aerodynamic performance. The relaxed style also extends to the no-sew sleeve ends while a waist gripper keeps the jersey in place. At the back, 3 large pockets and a zipped pocket offer up space for essentials you want close to hand and don’t want to stash in your handlebar or frame bag.
Rain or Shine. Road and Off-Road. Part of the versatile Rain or Shine (ROS) and Unlimited families, the Women's Unlimited Perfetto ROS 2 Jacket covers a wide range of riding conditions when you’re heading off the beaten track. Excellent breathability ensures comfort in drier milder conditions while wet conditions are combatted with the Castelli-exclusive GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® fabrics. Women’s Perfetto. Part 2. The ‘2’ in the title signifies several key improvements compared to its predecessor. You now have the convenience of a two-way YKK® Vislon® zipper to the front, making it easy to ventilate from the bottom while keeping your chest covered. Reflective details have also been made more visible. Seams at the top of the shoulder have been repositioned to the back out of the way of the weather. Pockets have also been made larger to hold more gear. While the fit remained focused on smooth performance, there’s now a bit more space across the chest, shoulders and biceps. Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® Lightly fleeced water-resistant INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® faces the worst of the weather across the front, blocking wind and rain. A lighter and stretchy version covers the back for greater breathability. And because there’s no membrane needed it’s far more breathable than most winter jackets. And because your drier you need fewer layers underneath. Pop on a thinner base layer for milder weather or an insulating layer when it’s freezing cold. You decide. If you do find yourself feeling a touch too warm, zipped chest vents allow you to dump heat and introduce some extra airflow.
If you love mixing up your cycling, even when it’s chilly, dashing along smooth roads before darting off onto tracks and trails, the Unlimited Thermal Jersey keeps you comfortably warm wherever you go. The Warmer fabric to the body deals remarkably well with the changing intensities of such riding. When it’s a steady pace it offers you cosy warmth. But come the extra effort of tough off-road climbs and gravel trails, it lets through enough air to ensure excellent breathability, preventing overheating and sweat build-up. Sides are made from Warmer X-Stretch, giving the Jersey a great fit too. Details are kept simple and fuss-free. A YKK® Vislon® zipper allows easy control of ventilation. 3 rear pockets allow you to keep essentials close to hand. And an elastic waist gripper keeps the fit snug and secure over shorts or tights.

Just because the Women's Unlimited DT Liner Bib Shorts are hidden under your baggies doesn’t mean that Castelli have taken any short-cuts on delivering you all-day cycling comfort. At their heart sits the premium Women’s specific Progetto X² Air Donna seamless seat pad. With a super-soft and stretchy Skin Care Layer, it gives instant comfort. Meanwhile, a Cushioning Layer, featuring both dual-density foam and gel padding, offers progressive support and vibration damping. Comfort is also enhanced by the use of compressive Force fabric around the hips. This not only offers excellent flexibility, and is superbly breathable, but it also ensures the seat pad holds the ideal position. A light and airy leg construction prevents overheating, and the gauze-like Giro Air elastic grippers are unobtrusive and comfortable. They also make it easy to adjust the leg length to your preference. Last, but by no means least, Castelli’s drop-tail bib design lets you take a natural break without removing the straps. They’re free-floating too, so you can choose to cross them in front or back.
Castelli Special Collection With the promise of warmer weather, longer days and more opportunity to get out and ride, we're very happy to bring you a fabulous range of Special Collection cycling kit and accessories. They're the ideal choice to keep you comfortable and stylish on your bike. Sock Perfection You may not give much thought to your socks when you're cycling, but you'll soon notice a bad pair. Not so the Gara Socks from Castelli, these are so comfortable you'll barely notice they're there. Made from Meryl Skinlife® yarns, they're quick to pull moisture away from the skin for superb comfort. And in combination with the antibacterial silver ions, your feet will never have felt so fresh, even after a long day of pushing the pedals. A compression cuff keeps them perfectly in place - no saggy sports socks here, just sock perfection.
While the Unlimited Ultimate Liner Bib Shorts may be hidden under baggy shorts, Castelli have still applied the exact same level of performance and detail as for their race shorts. At the heart of the shorts is their renowned Progetto X² Air seamless seat pad. With dual-density foam and gel pads providing support and damping, it's as good for rough trails as it is for smooth roads. Thanks to a carefully designed hip area, using compressive Force fabric, as you move, manoeuvre and pedal, the pad remains firmly in place, preventing chafing. Seeing as these bibs are to be used under baggies, the legs are kept light and airy to maintain comfort. Perforated fabrics and the gauze-like GIRO Air elastic grippers allow for cooling airflow and for your skin to breathe. Meanwhile the upper is also minimalist in design. Open-knit bib straps let the air flow about the body easily while the back is kept narrow to reduce coverage. A back yoke keeps the straps in the right place and prevents bunching. The final flourish is the inclusion of 3 storage pockets. These can be found to the back, sitting just above the waist height of your baggy shorts. An ideal place to stash essentials when you're wearing a loose-fitting t-shirt/cycling jersey.

As with any Castelli bib short, the Free Unlimited Cycling Bib Shorts are all about comfort and flexibility. And it doesn't get more comfortable than the Progetto X² Air seamless seat pad inside. With a super-soft stretchy top layer, copious ventilation and supportive padding, it excels over longer distances. Engineered for Adventure Flexibility comes by the way of the Forza 2 fabric. 32% Lycra® content offers just the right degree of compression and muscle support while allowing smooth and powerful pedalling. At the bottom of the legs, a raw-cut edge and the compressive Forza ensures a perfect fit without the need of a gripper. Less weight and more comfort. With abrasion-resistant Dyneema® side protection, you can lean into loose gravel turns with more confidence too – it could be the difference between a hole in shorts and road rash or dusting yourself down and carrying on riding. To the upper body, minimalist bib-straps see material stripped away, saving weight and boosting ventilation. Across the lower back, 2 mesh pockets provide storage space, while the legs also get pockets, made in light and fast-wicking materials so you don't notice they're there. This lets you forgo a traditional pocketed cycling jersey and go ride in a performance cycling tee. Progetto X² Air Seat Pad The pro-level Progetto X2 Air seat pad utilises ventilating perforations to keep you cooler and drier on endurance 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.
