With the addition of a contrast colour wordmark to the left leg, this limited edition design lends some pop to the clean, classic Premio Black Bib Shorts, which Castelli conceived to be the last word in long distance comfort.
With the addition of a contrast colour wordmark to the left leg, this limited edition design lends some pop to the clean, classic Premio Black Bib Shorts, which Castelli conceived to be the last word in long distance comfort.
These top-of-the-range bibs use the latest fabric technology to create a short that delivers on comfort, support, speed and durability. The first thing that is notable is what is missing: excessive seams and panels. This is because Castelli has created a new fabric that is woven to match the needs of various parts of the body, offering unrivalled wearability. Three panels, then, are all that are required to provide a great fit.
The lower leg has a raw-cut ending with silicone backed yarn to keep the shorts in place, while the four-way stretch fabric in the thigh provides just the right amount of muscle support.
The back is perforated for ventilation, while around the pelvis the fabric is slightly thicker, to offer compression, keeping Castelli's soft, double layered Progetto X² Air Seamless seat pad in place and avoiding transparency issues.
