Castelli Women’s Premio Black Bib Shorts

Castelli Women’s Premio Black Cycling Bib Shorts

Giving a beautifully sleek and streamlined fit thanks to the innovative gradient-fabric construction, the Castelli Women’s Premio Black Cycling Bib Shorts are the ultimate for long-distance cycling comfort. 

Seamless ‘Less is More’ Performance

The Women’s Premio Black Cycling Bib Shorts are unlikely to be like any cycling shorts you’ve ever worn before. Castelli have put into action a ‘less is more’ approach to the design, with fewer seams and panels used in their construction. This design approach has been made possible thanks to an innovative fabric that seamlessly changes in characteristic to suit each part of the body. With less need to stitch panels together you’ll find the fit and feel is superbly comfortable and offers a sleek and sophisticated look.

Gradient Stretch

Support and compression levels are highest around the pelvic area, holding the seat pad precisely in place and providing muscle support. The fabric is also thicker to avoid any transparency issues. As the fabric moves down the thighs it becomes progressively lighter in weight. This enhances moisture-management and gives outstanding flexibility when pedalling. Four-way stretch provides just the right amount of muscle support too. Raw cut endings and rubberised yarns keep the legs in place.

Premium fabrics are also deployed for the bib straps. These are high-stretch bibs that keep your shorts secure but don’t cut into your shoulders. Bonded edges give a smooth and comfortable fit and a perforated back ensure sweat can escape easily. 

Women’s Progetto X2 Air Seamless Seat Pad

The first contact point against the skin is the super-soft upper skin-care material. It’s now seamless and even softer than previous generation pads. The next layer, Castelli’s infinitely variable thickness padding, imparts just the right level of support where you need it – thicker under the sit bones and thinner on the sides and under the perineum. The results are outstanding comfort with reduced bulk.

Lastly, to really push home superior comfort levels, perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, offering luxurious support when you’re on the saddle for hours on end.

Laser-etched logos and a subtle finish ensure the Women’s Premio’s looks are as premium as their comfort. With an obsessive attention to detail, these are Castelli’s most refined cycling shorts yet.
