The Premio Bibshort has been engineered to provide the ultimate in long-distance comfort and to be your favourite bibshort ever. That’s a big claim, but there’s a lot of development in this short to back it up. We’ve carried the less-is-more theme into the design, with minimalist laser-etched logos and subtle finishing. It looks as premium as it feels. The first thing you might notice is what’s missing: the seams and multiple panels. We engineered a new fabric that changes depending on the needs over various parts of the body. The lower leg has a raw-cut leg ending and rubberized yarns to guarantee a flat grip to keep the leg in place. The fabric becomes lighter in the thigh, while the four-way stretch provides just the right amount of muscle support. With this magical fabric, we don’t need to stitch separate panels together, which ensures more comfort and a better fit, as well as a sleek, sophisticated look. The premium fabrics extend the bib straps. The perforated back keeps you cool and the edge is bonded so you don’t feel the thickness of a stitched edge. The elastic straps have just enough modulus (return) to hold your shorts securely in place without cutting into your shoulders. The seat pad is our top-of-the-line Progetto X² Air Seamless pad. It’s actually two separate components: a soft, stretchy Skin Care Layer next to your skin, which has the sole purpose of preventing any rubbing on your skin, and, under that, the Cushioning Layer, which features two separate densities of foam along with breathable perforated gel inserts under the ischiatic bones and perineum. In the pelvis area, the compression and support increase to keep the seat pad and everything else in place, and the fabric gets thicker to avoid any embarrassing transparency issues. Features: The premium all-conditions short Gradient stretch woven fabric for the right support in the right place Woven fabric weighs 30% less than comparable knit fabric Perforated back bib panel with lie flat bib straps that don’t bind at shoulders Integrated gripper elastic at leg ending holds short in place without need for extra silicone grippers Laser-etched logos with RossoCorsa at center back and black scorpion shadow logos at lower legs Progetto X² Air Seamless seat pad

If you love nothing more than discovering new roads and trails to ride, and the sense of adventure as new vistas open up, the Unlimited Cargo Bib Shorts are for you. It matters not whether you’re out for a few hours, all day or even multiple day trips, the extra pockets are super-useful to have. You have a total of four pockets to load up with extra kit. Cargo pockets on each thigh and mesh pockets across the back. The thigh pockets expand to hold lots of gear but compress to prevent bouncing around. Pocket flaps also prevent your stuff from flying out when you hit the rough stuff. Castelli’s tried, and trusted GIRO⁴ leg grippers keep the shorts in place as you whizz across roads and trails. A raw edge and vertical silicone stripes offer a firm hold without excess compression too. And then there’s the premium Kiss Air 2 Seat Pad, offering perfect comfort for anything from fast XC mountain bike rides to multi-day gravel bike adventures. Kiss Air 2 Seat Pad The Kiss Air 2 Seat Pad aims to incorporate as many of the features and comfort as the top-of-the-line Progetto x2 seat pad but at a more affordable price. 1. Seamless skin care layer: A super-soft, brushed microfibre top that maximizes comfort and fit. Seamlessly engineered to eliminate chafing and abrasion. Flexible to move with you. Bacteriostatic treatment to avoid saddle sores and infection. 2. Continuously variable thickness: Dual density and infinitely variable thickness 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. 3. Anatomic shape: Comfort is further enhanced by creating a perfect interface to your body during every pedal stroke.
The Free Aero RC Pro Bibshort is our top race short, which also means that it's insanely comfortable even if you never pin on a number. It's fair to say that we've been working on this short for the past 15 years. That's how long it's been since the original Free Aero Race Bibshort was first introduced, initially as our top-of-the-line race short. Since then it has won three Tours de France, three Giri d'Italia, San Remo, Roubaix, Liège, and Lombardia, but it also became the best-selling product in the history of Castelli because, simply put, this is the short that does everything well. The concept is quite simple: start with the best pad we know how to make, surround it with a supportive short with good muscle compression, and then remove everything else that's not absolutely necessary. You feel Free thanks to the reduced number of panels and the reduced number of seams. In fact, the short portion has just 5 panels compared to 10 in the previous generation. You feel Free because of further refinements to the Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad. The two densities of foam plus the gel pads provide progressive damping, while the separate Skin Care Layer is soft and stretchy to move with your skin. You feel Free thanks to the most minimal bibs you've ever seen in a short, including open-weave straps for maximum airflow. But we reinforced the yoke so the straps stay in place and made the mesh back narrow for coverage that is minimal yet just enough to hold the shorts in place. And the bib elegantly frames a convenient pocket at the center back. You feel Free because this is the first high-end short that doesn't need any sort of gripper or elastic at the end of the leg to keep the leg in place. Getting this right meant 28 prototypes and our most extensive test program ever, and it results in the most comfortable leg ending we've ever made. The Forza 2 fabric has 32% Lycra® with a high modulus for exceptional muscle support and just the right amount of compression. There's reflective piping on the back. And all logos are sublimation printed so they will never peel, crack, or fade. What It Is The perfect mix of comfort and speed. Engineered for top-level racing, which also makes it supremely comfortable for every ride and rider. Product Features High-compression 215 g Forza 2 fabric with 32% Lycra® content provides exceptional muscle support and compression Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad is soft against the skin but well padded for long-distance comfort Minimalist bib straps allow maximum airflow, while a reinforced yoke keeps the straps flat over the shoulders Rear mesh pocket 5-panel construction for reduced seams and less chafing Sublimation-printed graphic and logos that will never peel, crack, or fade Reflective piping on back of legs Soft waistband with raw-cut edge panels for extra stretch and comfort Raw-cut leg ending engineered to stay put without silicone grippers 15°-35°C / 59°-95°F Weight:183g
