Castelli Superleggera Mens Cycling Bibshorts

LIGHT, COOL AND STRAIGHT OUT OF THE FUTURE

We’ve been pushing the envelope on lightweight shorts since 2011 but have butted up against the limits of compromising durability forever 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.
