Castelli Men's Competizione Bibshort

Castelli's KISS Air2 seat pad is designed to provide all-day comfort for cyclists. The fabric used is the softest ever, ensuring immediate and long-lasting comfort against the skin. The pad is seamlessly engineered to reduce chafing and abrasion, allowing you to move freely without discomfort.

The key feature of the KISS Air2 is its dual-density, infinitely variable thickness, which provides the perfect cushioning in every part of the pad. The ischial zone, where the majority of the pressure is applied, has maximum thickness and density, tapering to moderate thickness under the perineum and minimum thickness at the perimeter.

The interior of the leg uses Affinity Pro Lycra fabric, offering outstanding stretch and rebound for a comfortable, unrestricted fit. Meanwhile, the exterior of the legs features Vortex BLC textured fabric, which enhances aerodynamics.

The Giro4 leg gripper, with its raw edge and silicone stripes, ensures a secure and comfortable fit around the thighs. Additionally, the mesh straps contribute to the overall breathability and comfort of the shorts.

For added visibility and safety, the shorts feature reflective detailing on the back.

Castelli has designed these shorts to incorporate as much of their top-of-the-line, pro-level technology as possible, while keeping the price more accessible. The main Vortex textured fabric and the Giro4 leg gripper are directly taken from their premier Free Aero Race 4 Bibshort, ensuring a high-performance fit and feel.

The KISS Air2 seat pad offers most of the comfort of Castelli's top-end seat pads, but at a more affordable price point. This represents maximum value for cyclists seeking the best balance of performance and cost.

The perfect fit of these shorts is a testament to Castelli's pattern engineering team, who have meticulously designed the garment to provide a comfortable and supportive fit, whether you're racing or simply enjoying a leisurely ride.

In summary, Castelli's KISS Air2 shorts bring the best of their technical expertise and comfort-focused design into an accessible product that can enhance the cycling experience for riders of all levels. The attention to detail and the incorporation of pro-level features ensure that these shorts deliver exceptional performance and value.
