A bibshort that combines warmth, stretch, and comfort.

You could call this a “convergence” product. A few years back, we pioneered the first Omloop Thermal Bibshort, inspired by pro riders who would cut off their knee warmers right at the bend of the knee during a brisk, sunny Omloop Het Nieuwsblad. Castelli set out to make a bibshort cut exactly to that point, discovering along the way that it could be made without a gripper elastic — and that the extra 10 centimeters of fabric actually added significant warmth. Those first Omloop shorts were designed for cool, dry conditions, just like the race that inspired them.

Fast-forward to 2026: Castelli is taking that same thinking and applying it to the Espresso Thermal Bibshort. Using the warm and soft Thermoflex fabric from the Espresso 2 Thermal Bibtight, this new bibshort combines warmth, stretch, and comfort in a performance-driven design.

It’s the ultimate transition product — everything you loved about the Omloop Thermal Bibshort, but evolved for modern riders and longer rides.

Progetto X2 Air Chamois

The PROGETTO X2 AIR seat pad is used with its ventilated skin-care layer to keep you cool. Its two-layer design and multi-density padding ensures excellent comfort no matter how long your epic ride is.

A four-way stretch, microdenier, seamless, bacteriostatic layer design for care of your skin, made to adapt to the shape of your body and saddle without any folds in the fabric. Air flows right into the surface fabric to aid evaporation

Multi-density foam with infinitely variable thickness, engineered to place the padding where you need it most for maximum comfort.

Perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineal pressure areas.

Thermoflex Insulating Fabric

With outstanding stretch, luxuriously soft and warm Thermoflex is ideal for cold weather apparel. Fleecy inside traps a layer of warm air next to your skin. High stretch allows for an aerodynamic fit.
