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.
The Nano Flex Pro Race Bibshort is the latest iteration of Castelli’s Omloop thermal short.Taking inspiration from pro riders cutting down knee warmers at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad so they ran to just above the knee, the Omloop was cut longer than normal bibshorts with an extra 10cm of fabric adding a lot of warmth, while also doing away with the need for restrictive gripper elastic. This new bibshort take the same idea but with an updated design for even greater versatility.The Nano Flex Pro Race Bibshort is made from Castelli’s Nano Flex 3G fabric. This offers the same warmth, softness, and breathability as the fabric used in the original Omloop but it is also water repellent. So now this short ideal for cool and dry days, but it is also superb for wet weather.Reduced seaming eliminates points where water can enter the short and minimises abrasion. The mesh bibs don’t add warmth so you can dress your upper body for the conditions without worrying about moisture build up.The bibshort uses Castelli’s Progetto X2 seat pad. This pad features two isolated layers that work in tandem with your body and saddle to eliminate friction while still offering substantial cushioning where it’s needed most.It’s still a pro tool: this short is identical to the mode supplied to Team Ineos. Key Features: Nano Flex 3G fabric is water repellent, stretchy and warm thanks to luxuriously soft brushed inside,Reduced seams for comfort and to prevent water from entering shorts during wet rides,Knee-length cut for extra warmth that doesn’t require gripper elastic,Highly ventilated mesh bib straps,Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad for long hours in the saddle,12° – 20°C / 54° – 68°F,Weight: 205g (Large).

Ride Hard. Ride Fast. You’ve worked hard all through winter, building your base, topping up your FTP and boosting your anaerobic engine. And with the Velocity HD2 Bib Shorts, you have a performance garment that maximises those gains. It begins with use of Ale’s wind-tunnel tested ‘Aero 3D’ fabric. The engineered jacquard structure works to deliver a significant reduction in drag, keeping you slippery through the air as your speed rises. But not just that, Aero 3D’s elasticity and recovery boost muscle compression, encouraging improved blood flow and venous return. Lightweight Comfort Complementing the aero fabric is lightweight ‘Speedy’ fabric. Thanks to its low weight it feels barely there while its excellent breathability keeps you feeling cooler and fresher when the pace increases. An orthogonal woven structure enhances durability and at the same time gives the ideal degree of muscle support and compression. Y-Air Bib System With their Y-Air Bib System, Ale has increased rider comfort by lessening the contact area between straps and skin. With more skin open to the air, both breathability and ventilation are improved, but thanks to the Y-shaped back, the short’s stability and position are maintained perfectly. Soft microfibre straps also promote a feeling of lightweight and freshness. Men's 8H+ EVO seat pad Using dual-density padding, the Men's 8H+ EVO seat pad gives superb comfort and support for rides up to and exceeding 8 hours in length. A true endurance product, maximum support is reserved for areas that feel the greatest pressure when you’re on the saddle. Elsewhere, lower-density foam keeps mobility high. Perforations maintain excellent breathability and airflow while flexible wings allow for easy freedom of movement as you pedal and for when you’re jumping in and out of the saddle for sprints and hill climbs.

The designers at Castelli have placed the seams precisely to give a perfect fit around the hips and waist.
