Castelli size chart

Castelli figures are the maximum body measurement for that size. Read down to the first number you are under. Jackets built to layer over a jersey (Perfetto, Gabba, Alpha) run closer to true than the rest of the range.

How to measure

  • Chest: under your arms, around the fullest part, arms relaxed at your sides
  • Waist: around your natural waistline, tape held loose
  • Hips: around the widest part
  • Inseam: from crotch to floor, no shoes

Measure over the underwear you would ride in and keep the tape horizontal. All measurements refer to your body, not the garment.

Two rules that work across every brand. Buying a jacket to wear over a jersey? Take your normal size or size up. Buying a thermal jersey to wear under a jacket? Size down if you are between sizes and want it close.

Compare every brand side by side in our full size guide, or visit the Adelaide showroom to try before you buy.

DESCRIPTION

This is Castelli's midrange performance short, great for a long ride or a quick hour workout indoors or out. Their Endurance Evolution fabric is a high-modulus, very matte Lycra® fabric that feels extremely dry while providing just the right amount of compression. At the leg ending they use a raw-cut edge with vertical silicone strips to keep the leg in place without the pressure that creates the dreaded sausage effect. The bib straps are stretchy enough that you can pull the short down for a pee break without removing your jersey and bibs, while the floating construction allows you to cross the straps on the front or the back, whichever works better for you. A great short needs a great seat pad, and the womens-specific KISS Air2 Donna pad will keep you comfortable without being too bulky.

WHAT IT IS

Premium fabrics, a flattering cut, drop-tail bib straps, and our everyday-comfort KISS Air2 Donna seat pad make this short right for everything but the longest rides.
