Castelli created this short to incorporate as much of the technology as possible from the top professional level racing shorts at a more affordable price. And while it's definitely capable of racing on the weekend, it's also a superbly comfortable pair of shorts for top performance, even if you never pin a number on it for the next race. The Vortex-textured base fabric and GIRO4 silicone leg band are straight from Castelli's flagship Free Aero Race 4 Bibshort, while the KISS Air2 seat pad offers almost the same comfort as top-of-the-line seat pads, but comes at an unbeatable price.
What you don't see in the specs, but you'll appreciate more than they do, is Castelli's ability to get their garments to fit perfectly, thanks to the innovative engineering of the fabrics by the Castelli team. This is the short that brings Castelli's leading expertise in making comfortable performance shorts into an affordable product in your cycling wardrobe.
