Made from Castelli's Thermoflex fabric, the Velocissimo 4 Bib tights have a luxuriously thick and warm brushed fleece inside, keeping you cosy while at the same time ensuring perspiration escapes to leave you dry and perfectly comfortable. Not only that but the combination of Thermoflex and fine Castelli tailoring allows you the total freedom of movement needed for smooth and powerful pedalling. Mesh bib straps ensure moisture has an easy escape route as you work up a sweat and ankle zips make getting the tights on and off easier. All the details are there for comfort and performance. Inside the Velocissimo is the outstanding KISS Air2 seat pad, taking as many 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. Great winter cycling kit doesn't have to be wildly expensive, Castelli have got all the details right while still offering incredible value, making the Velocissimo 4 Bib tights a winter winner in our books.
Renowned for product innovation, including the first consumer-available Lycra® cycling shorts to anatomical seat pads, Castelli know how to make great cycling products. And that constant push for innovation and excellence has been distilled into the Entrata 2 Bib Knickers. They’re entry-level cycling tights with high-end performance. Just right from the moment you pull them on, you'll soon be riding further and faster and more comfortably than ever before. The Pro Dry matte Lycra® provides the ideal level of compression, remains perfectly flexible for smooth pedalling and deals efficiently with sweat. Mesh bib straps ensure your upper body remains cool and fresh and the smooth Giro3 leg grippers give a smooth but firm grip of the legs. And as with every Castelli short, the fit is sublime, the 8-panel design hugging and flexing in all the right places for outstanding comfort. They're made to last too, with the logos and reflective details stitched in so no peeling even after many seasons of use. Perfect. KISS Air2 Seat Pad When you're on the bike you'll also enjoy on-the-saddle comfort from Castelli's KISS Air2 seat pad. Next to the skin, you'll enjoy the luxury of Castelli's softest-ever surface fabric, delivering immediate comfort. Seamless construction and stretch fit all but eliminate chafing as you push the watts. Next comes the dual-density, variable-thickness padding. This sees maximum density and thickness across the ischial zone, reduced thickness around the perineum and then minimum thickness at the edges. This is all wrapped up in an anatomically shaped pad for optimal comfort for any distance.
Designed for cool riding conditions the LW Bib Tights have an upper very similar to the Omloop bib shorts, but with extra thermal protection over the front of the knees and Nano Light fabric lowers for water repellency against road spray. This construction makes for incredible comfort and the lack of resistance around the knee makes them feel almost like shorts when pedalling. The mesh upper allows for excellent breathability and allows you to tailor warmth levels with your base layer. For long-ride comfort, you have the Progetto X2 Air Seatpad utilising ventilating perforations to keep you cooler and dryer 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. For milder weather, and high-intensity cold-weather training the LW Bib Tights strike a perfect balance of protection, warmth and freedom of movement. Whether you're on a mild-temperature long winter base ride or hitting some early season intervals these are the perfect option.
When it's time to build your aerobic base and slowly increase your winter miles despite the colder temperatures and frequent rain showers, you’ll want the superb warmth and comfort of the Women's Free Aero RC DT Bib Tights to keep you company. 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. Drop-Tail (DT). Nature Stops Made Easy. Simplicity and functionality are key features of the rest of the tights. The Drop Tail (DT) bib strap design means there's no fussing when it comes to nature breaks. No need to remove layers and remove straps when you want to stop and go. At the ankles, raw-cut ends remove the need for zippers while still keeping a firm fit and work well with overshoes too.

To combat the bite of colder temperatures, Castelli have engineered the Entrata Tights in their cosy and warm Thermoflex fabric. With a soft and luxurious feel against the skin, the fleece-backed fabric does a brilliant job of trapping air to create a warm barrier of insulation against the cold. It’s breathable too, preventing excess sweat build up when you’re powering into headwinds or attacking steep roads. A flexible waistband provides a secure fit, but with enough stretch to allow for unrestricted deep breathing. Ankle zippers make it easy to pull your tights on and off while reflective details catch the eye of fellow road users as day turns to night.

With a focus on performance and style, these pieces give you warmth and comfort alongside exclusive designs that stand out amongst the rest.

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.
