Short-distance race suit for speed and comfort Endurance Evolution fabric is lightweight but supportive Close-cut top with longer legs Reduced seaming for faster swims Rear envelope pocket stays closed in the water but makes it easy to carry a gel Fleece seat liner smooths out the bike ride but disappears on the run Weight:170g
The Women's Core Spry-Oly Suit is a triathlon suit designed for shorter triathlon distances such as Olympic and Sprint. Made from Castelli’s Endurance Evolution fabric the tri suit provides optimum muscle support and is quick drying, which is ideal for triathlon as this reduces the chance of chaffing when transitioning from the swim to the cycle. A fleece seat liner replaces a normal tri pad. The fleece provides comfort on the bike but is virtually unnoticeable on the run. Reduced seaming further improves comfort on the run and the swim. An envelope rear pocket provides storage for a gel – likely all that’s needed for such short distances.
Castelli Special Collection With the promise of longer days and more opportunity to get out and ride, we're very happy to bring you a fabulous range of Special Collection Castelli cycling kit and accessories. They're the ideal choice to keep you comfortable and stylish on your bike. The Best Just Got Better When it comes to racing and training in the cold and wet the Women's Gabba jersey has always been a favourite, excelling thanks to the balance of breathability and weather-protection but Castelli, as always have improved the performance even further. The Gabba becomes Gabba ROS - Rain or Shine. Working with Gore they developed two unique GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ fabrics; fleece-backed windproof INFINIUM™ 205 is used to the front and gives a significant boost to rain protection while doing a brilliant job of keeping out cold winds and keeping in body heat. To the back, GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ 203 Stretch is lighter, more breathable but still remarkably water-repellent, a real improvement on the previous Gabba, ensuring you don't feel the dreaded clamminess of sweat build-up. Taped shoulder seams also boost performance in the rain. The Gabba ROS, Rain or Shine, is now more waterproof, more breathable and better fitting than ever, letting you laugh in the face of foul weather. It's the Details that Count Details also count when you're cycling through the cold and wet. The YKK® Vislon® zipper is covered to keep out the elements, a dropped tail, with a large reflective panel, keeps wheel spray off and boosts visibility as daylight fades and the two larger rear pockets make accessing essentials easier, even with gloves on - no more fumbling for all important gels. It's difficult to improve upon a classic but that never stops Castelli from trying. With their Limited Edition Gabba Rain or Shine, they have pushed cycling performance to new heights yet again, letting you enjoy the ride no matter what mother nature has in store
Castelli's Unlimited range is all about new adventures, exploration and fun. You're still riding fast, still challenging yourself but with modern bikes and wider tyres nowhere is now off-limits. And for this, the Unlimited Baggy Shorts are the perfect riding partner. Made from a stretch woven fabric, they offer excellent flexibility and easy manoeuvrability, letting you pedal easily and move quickly as the terrain and grip changes beneath your chunky tyres. They're tough too, resisting snags and abrasions from trailside overgrowth or in case you slide out on a fast gravel corner. And with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish you can splash through streams and puddles without fear of a soaking. These are shorts you will love to wear as you explore new horizons.
Performance Perfected After 12 years of evolution and huge kilometres of on the road testing, where exactly have the Castelli design team squeezed out even greater comfort and performance from the already exemplary Women's Free Aero Race Bibshort? Well, the heart of any great shorts is the seat pad and for this year the women's specific Progetto X2 Air Donna is more flexible than ever with a new seamless top layer giving you a pad that is virtually unnoticeable and it's possibly the softest pad you'll ever use. New GIRO4 leg grippers get enhanced stretch and yet are grippier than previous versions so the pressure is spread wider but without any loss of traction on the thighs. Lastly, the Stripe Mesh straps are lighter in weight, more breathable and yet offer enhanced support, in all honesty, you'll barely notice they're there, but that's the whole point. While these improvements are subtle, they all add up to a major step up in comfort, providing support on both the longest and shortest rides. Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna Women's Seat Pad Let's look at the Progetto X2 Air Seamless Donna in more detail and see just why it's so incredibly comfortable. The first contact point against the skin, the upper skin-care material, is now seamless and even softer than previous versions letting you enjoy smooth and chafe-free pedalling. 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 result is intense comfort with reduced bulk. Lastly, to really push home superior comfort levels, perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, offering luxurious support when you're on the saddle for hours on end. Pro Performance The Women's Free Aero Race 4 bib shorts are designed with a focus on race performance which has naturally led to a short that is minimalist in its construction, boasts slippery aerodynamics and yet is incredibly comfortable for both long races and tough training sessions. Updated seams improve the fit and they now sit on the body even better giving you unrivalled freedom of movement. When it comes to comfort on race day and your longest of training days we think you'll soon discover why these shorts are loved by the Pros.
The front of the Aria Vest Gilet is completely windproof, preventing any loss of warmth via windchill. Meanwhile, the Striped mesh back fabric provides outstanding breathability so you don't get too hot and sweaty. And both materials are super-light, creating a vest coming in at 75g, meaning you'll barely feel the vest once it's on. However, it's not just the core windproof protection you'll love. The fit is brilliant too. Gone is a flappy, loose garment and in its place is a streamlined and stretchy fit that won't slow you down when cycling. Thanks to the stretch you still enjoy full mobility too. And when you're ready to take it off, it folds into its own pack pocket, taking up minimal space in your jersey pocket.
The Women's Aria Shell Jacket is all about bringing the classic windproof jacket right up to date. This high-performance windproof outer layer now matches the rest of your highly functional cycling kit. Gone are the oversize fit and flappy, poor breathing fabrics. In their place are an ultralight windproof woven microfiber front and mesh side panels. These work in harmony to keep out cold winds but offer extremely good breathability too. No cold air can slip inside and yet any sweat you build-up can escape, the result being a perfect temperature when riding. The fit is a revelation compared to jackets of old too. The stretch panels to the sides and back of the sleeves give it a second-skin fit more akin to a race jersey. Less fabric to catch the wind. Less drag. More efficient cycling. A win all-round. In cool to mild conditions, you can keep it on all ride, but if the day warms up it's easily folded up to stuff in your jersey pocket. This is definitely not your old-style wind jacket.

Let's start in reverse order: Run: At this point in the race, fatigue sets in. You'll love the comfort of this suit. The front Samremo opening construction doesn't pull you forward, and you can open it up when you feel too hot. The fabrics are quick drying, light and cool. The seat pad that felt so good on the bike is small enough you hardly feel it. The two rear pockets compress your gels so they don't bounce around. The long legs with Giro4 leg gripper elastic don't ride up and don't bind. Maybe you'll even notice that you don't have as many burning spots where you've been chafed raw. Somehow, you're thinking that comfort gives you an extra push, some extra speed. Bike: You relish these couple of hours to put some distance into the other women. This suit benefits from the aero research of Castelli's Pro PR suit but is tuned for speeds ranging from medium to high. The legs and sleeves provide excellent coverage while the back gives decent sun protection and the two pockets hold plenty of nutrition. And you appreciate the Castelli know-how in seat pad construction. Put your head down and pass a few more riders. Swim: The reduced seaming and long arms and legs help you cut through the water while the pockets lie flat and don't catch water. The fit is snug and the lightweight fabrics don't hold as much water. The shoulder area is extra stretchy for freedom of movement even under a wetsuit or swimskin.
Winter is when you'll be outside, getting the hours done, the miles ticked off and building a solid base of fitness for spring and summer. And with the Women's Sorpasso ROS (Rain or Shine) Bib Tights you can go out in most conditions and get your training done in comfort. Nano Flex Technology For the majority of the tight, Castelli uses their brilliant Nano Flex 3G fabric. It offers both incredible warmth and excellent water-repellency via third-generation nanotechnology fabric treatment. And it has a superb level of flexibility too, so the tights never feel restrictive. But not just that, the fabric is also highly breathable so you don't feel clammy when you're working hard. In areas most exposed to the weather and in need of extra protection, namely the upper front panels, thighs and across the back, you'll find Nano Flex Xtra Dry deployed. This adds both extra warmth and windproof protection while also boosting water-repellency. Sleek Fit While the fabrics may take centre stage, the fit of the Sorpasso tights is also worth admiring. Anatomic patterning gives a perfect fit at the hips and knees, delivering smooth pedalling flexibility in and out of the saddle. At the upper body, the lie-flat bib straps hold tight but soon disappear from your mind. And then there's the fabulously comfortable women's Progetto X² Air seamless seat pad to make even the longest rides comfortable. Women's Donna Progetto X² Air Seat Pad The pro-level Donna Progetto X2 Air Seatpad 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. There are no better tights to pull on in winter to keep you motivated to rack up those base-building miles. Come rain or shine you'll be ready to roll in comfort.
The Nano Nanoflex Pro 2 Race Bib Shorts are a continuation and evolution of the race-ready and pioneering Omloop thermal shorts. First created for racing and inspired by Pro riders who improvised longer shorts at the early season Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, these latest shorts keep the extra 10 centimetres length to provide more warmth over the knees. The major leap forward to performance comes by the way of the Nano Flex fabric. Soft, stretchy, breathable and as warm as their Thermoflex fabric, it’s superb in cold dry weather but this material provides extra protection on wet days. The soft fleecy inner is luxuriously warm too. For early season races and training where the weather can turn quickly from good to bad and back again, there’s nothing better. As you’d expect, Castelli gets the details just right too. Fewer seams prevent water ingress while also reducing areas that could chafe. And a mesh bib section improves moisture control and lets you easily tailor your base-layer to suit your specific riding conditions. Then there’s the superb Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad inside. Utilising ventilating perforations, it keeps you more comfortable 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 with three-layer components, each dedicated to a specific purpose to create the most comfortable seat pad available. Created as a pro-rider tool for spring Classics racing, the Nanoflex Pro 2 Race Bib Shorts offers you outstanding comfort and performance for your very own spring racing and training endeavours.
The Entrata Bib Tights would have been considered a top-end tight a few seasons ago such are their excellent function, comfort and performance. Using Thermoflex, the benchmark thermal material for warmth and flexibility, these tights will lock in warmth during all but the coldest of riding days. The upper body and bib straps use mesh to guarantee optimal breathability - and it makes it easy to tailor warmth via your choice of base layer. A reduction in seams throughout boosts comfort too. With their drive to deliver you functional cycling kit, Castelli doesn't overlook the details that can make a huge difference to comfort and performance. Ankle zippers make them easy to get on and off, a particularly welcome feature at the end of a long ride. Reflective details provide visibility when you're doing your training after dark. And then there's the Kiss Air2 seat pad - so good even some Castelli pro riders cite it as a favourite. Kiss Air2 seat pad The Kiss Air2 seat pad 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.
First thing you'll notice when you pull the Tutto Nano on is the snug stretch fit. This is thanks to the highly flexible Nano Flex 3G fabric, as found in Castelli's superb Sorpasso tights. This close fit not only saves precious energy but less flapping boosts warmth too. Speaking of warmth, the fleece inner is great at trapping body heat and the tighter knit of the fabric lets less air through than traditional thermal jersey fabrics, enhancing warmth still further. Next comes Castelli’s proprietary nanotechnology water-repellent finish. When you're cycling in the dry you'll not notice it. However, on a damp and drizzly autumn day, it comes into its own, fending off light rain and wet roads, keeping you comfortable for longer. Spring and autumn days are shorter and so you'll also be pleased to find 360° reflectivity, keeping you visible as the night draws in. An easy-sliding KK® Vislon® zipper with rubberized pull and the silicone gripper elastic finish the jersey in style. If you're looking to upgrade your cool-weather cycling kit, the Tutto Nano ROS Jersey is a great place to start. Compared to a traditional thermal jersey it's a definite step up in performance.
Come autumn, winter and spring you can face a wide range of conditions when you head out on your bike. And your efforts can range from slow and steady miles to high-intensity interval training. Here, getting your kit just right can be tricky. But this is where the Alpha ROS 2 Light Jacket excels. The Perfect Balance Achieving the perfect harmony between warmth, breathability and weather-protection is made possible via the unique double-layer construction. Inside, a Prosecco Strada inner liner, with 2nd front zip, works to move sweat off the skin and prevent you from getting wet and chilly when working hard. Meanwhile, the front of the Alpha Light uses Gore-Tex INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® 150, highly breathable and windproof material with excellent water-repellency, fending off mist, drizzle and road spray. An outer zip lets you open the outer for extra ventilation while the inner can remain zipped up to keep your core protected. Meanwhile, the back uses Nano Flex Xtra Dry, with nanotechnology water-repellent finish, providing a boost to breathability and air-exchange. When the pace increases and effort levels rise you'll be happy to find you don't end up drenched in sweat. Fit and Features The advanced patterning makes for an excellent close-to-body fit, the extra stretch at the waist keeping the fit sleek while a raw-edge waist lies flat and moves with you. Finished with a Castelli silicone text gripper at the waist, it keeps that jersey/jacket from riding up. Three rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes plus a front zippered pocket take care of all your storage needs. It may be called a jacket but it's so much more. For your more intense rides in wetter and changeable weather or for cool days of steady miles then the warmth, breathability and wet weather protection strike just the right balance to keep you dry and comfy all ride.
Now into its third generation, the Women's Alpha ROS 2 Jacket gets a few tweaks here and there, for example, re-engineered double layer cuffs to sit snugly both inside and outside your winter gloves. Enhanced fabrics offer increased breathability but with improved waterproofness too. Clever design details, such as seam-sealed shoulders and seams, moved out of direct water flow, shut water out yet provide ample breathability and ventilation too. Of course, it also retains all the best features that you love too, including the innovative two-layer construction. Rain Out. Warmth in. The Women's Alpha RoS 2 Jacket, just like its predecessors, makes it far easier to dress for a wide range of conditions. With the RoS (Rain or Shine) design you'll enjoy a best-in-class garment for dry, cold weather but it also offers protection should it rain. In light, but incessant rain, or a sharp rain shower there's no need to immediately have to reach for another waterproof jacket layer. The Rain or Shine system utilises Gore® INFINIUM™ Windstopper® 150 fabric for wind protection and the high breathability and effective protection required to ride in the rain. Castelli also incorporates its Alpha construction. This separates the wind/water protection layer from the insulating layer. The result is you have better control of ventilation, letting you open the outer layer while protecting your core and better moisture evaporation overall. The RoS jacket is unlike any other that allows you to ride from low-temperature conditions right through to wet and mild conditions. Performance Fit and Features Stretch fabrics with advanced patterning make for an excellent close-to-body fit that still accommodates a wide range of body types. A raw-edge waist that lies flat and moves with you plus the Castelli silicone text gripper at your waist keeps the jacket from riding up. 3 rear pockets with reflective laser-cut drain holes plus an extra pocket with waterproof zip make for a very practical jacket with plenty of storage space. For those of you seeking the ultimate in versatile all-weather, multi-season cycling protection you really need not look any further. Think of this as taking all your winter kit options and distilling it into one incredible do-it-all garment. We think you'll find it's worth every penny.

Once you’ve got cold and wet feet it’s hard to concentrate and enjoy your ride. The Castelli Diluvio UL Overshoes work to ensure it never gets to that stage. The premium 3mm neoprene construction makes for a brilliant insulator against the cold and it keeps rain out too. At the upper cuff, the ‘skin-out’ seal slows down water seepage while fully taped seams also prevent water from creeping inside. The high stretch of the neoprene also gives the overshoes a sleek and streamlined fit over your cycling shoes. A hook and loop closure underneath make these compatible with almost any road, gravel of MTB shoe too.
Created to provide reliable protection in most conditions, apart from the very heaviest of rain, the ROS 2 Overshoes use a Polartec® Power Stretch® fleece lined front to keep cold winds out. To the sides, 3-layer fleece-backed waterproof panels resist drizzle and spray from damp roads. A YKK® water-resistant zipper makes them easy to pull on and off while not compromising the protection levels. And for low-light cycling, the reflective heel tab gives greater visibility to other road users.
Most warmers available are made from a nylon/elastane material and they tend to hold onto moisture, meaning they may be warm to start but they'll soon have you feeling chilly and damp when you get going. However, the Pro Seamless Knee Warmers use a polyester yarn, far better for dealing with sweat build-up while still maintaining excellent warmth. Just what you need for cool weather, hard training and intense racing. Thanks to the low weight, high stretch and seamless construction you'll barely notice them either. If the day warms up they'll fold up small and easy fit in a cycling jersey pocket.
