Description Accessible, Dependable Castelli Performance
Castelli designed the Competizione Bibshort to incorporate as much technology as possible for their top of the line pro-level race shorts at an accessible pricepoint.

The Castelli Competizione Bibshort brings the best of Castelli's know-how in building comfort performance shorts into an accessible and dependable product.
Features:
KISS Air2 seat pad for all-day comfort
Affinity Pro Lycra fabric on inside of leg for outstanding stretch and rebound
Vortex BLC textured fabric on legs for comfort
Silicone stripes for grip
Flat-lock stitching for added comfort
Reflective detailing provides added visibility
Mesh straps for comfort

Comfortable and cool to wear.

I wanted to try a new brand of bib and I was not disappointed. The fit is tight, but it is a race bib. I based my size off of other brands I wear and I might have gotten the next size up. That said, the bib doesn't bind, give solid compression, and is cool for the Florida summer

Loved these. Recommended by a friend. Road 545 miles in 10-days during an event and they held up great! Hand washed every night (in clothing bags, and hang dried) and they feel brand new.

Love the Kiss Air 2 pad, overall great shorts

I am 5' 8" and a pretty fit 175 lbs or so (not a super lean bicyclists build but not fat either), I bought an XL and it fits great. My absolute favorite thing about these bibshorts is the Kiss Air2 pad, it is so comfy, I wish I would've purchased these years ago. Much comfier than the Pearl Izumi bottoms I've been riding for the last 10 or so year. I've been riding these shorts in HOT weather and find they are pretty breezy without showing everyone else your stuff. I also read where another reviewer had a painful experience due to the location of the straps. I fortunately have not experience this, but the review did cause me to notice the placement of the straps on these shorts is more inboard than the Velocissimo bibtights that I also really like. I'll be buying more Castelli bottoms because of the comfort factor.

First, the elephant in the room... sizing. Conventional wisdom is that Castelli runs small and that you should size up, but let me offer an alternative--read the size chart! I purchased the size indicated according to the measurements in the size chart and these fit perfectly. As to the bibs themselves, the chamois is super comfortable and I really like the compression and lightweight fabric. Longest ride in these so far is 100km, and they could have gone further. Really the only problem is that now I want to upgrade my old entry-level bibs because these are so much better!

I have learned that buying something of the quality of Castelli is the way to go if you ride a lot. I love these shorts the fit is perfect for me. I am 160 pounds and 5'8" a medium is a good snug fit.

Definitely like the craftsmanship, a bit snug but hey it's a skinny person sport. If you don't mind super snug stay with your size otherwise go a size up.
Cheers!
