Innovative evolution
The Free Aero RC Bibshort is our top race short, which also means that it's insanely comfortable even if you never pin on a number.
It's fair to say that we've been working on this short for the past 15 years. That's how long it's been since the original free aero race bibshort was first introduced, initially as our top-of-the-line race short. Since then it has won three Tours de France, three Gri d'Italia, one Vuelta, and San Remo, but it also became the best-selling product in the history of Castelli because, simply put, this is the short that does everything well.
The concept is quite simple: start with the best pad we know how to make, surround it with a supportive short with good muscle compression, and then remove everything else that's not absolutely necessary.
You feel free thanks to the reduced number of panels and the reduced number of seams. In fact, the short portion has just 5 panels compared to 10 in the previous generation.
You feel free because of further refinements to the Progetto X2 air seamless seat pad. The two densities of foam plus the gel pads provide progressive damping, while the separate skincare layer is soft and stretchy to move with your skin.
You feel free thanks to the most minimal bibs you've ever seen in a short, including open-weave straps for maximum airflow. But we reinforced the yoke so the straps stay in place and made the mesh back narrow for coverage that is minimal yet just enough to hold the shorts in place. And the bib elegantly frames a convenient pocket at the center back.
You feel free because this is the first high-end short that doesn't need any sort of gripper or elastic at the end of the leg to keep the leg in place. Getting this right meant 28 prototypes and our most extensive test program ever, and it results in the most comfortable leg ending we've ever made.
The Forza 2 fabric has 32% lycra with a high modulus for exceptional muscle support and just the right amount of compression. There's reflective piping on the back. And all logos are either stitched or embossed for durability.
- High-compression 215g Forza 2 fabric with 32% lycra content provides exceptional muscle support and compression
- Progetto X2 air seamless seat pad is soft against the skin but well padded for long-distance comfort
- Minimalist bib straps allow maximum airflow, while a reinforced yoke keeps the straps flat over the shoulders
- Rear mesh pocket
- 5-panel construction for reduced seams and less chafing
- Sublimation-printed graphic and logos that will never peel, crack, or fade
- Reflective piping on back of legs
- Soft waistband with raw-cut edge panels for extra stretch and comfort
- Raw-cut leg ending engineered to stay put without silicone grippers

It Just Works Right
Castelli has innovation in our DNA, and we've brought you most innovations in cycling shorts over the years: the first Lycra shorts on the market, the first synthetic seat pads, the first anatomical seat pads, the first minimalist and flat bib straps, and the first flat leg grippers. All these have become industry standards, and we keep pushing and innovating in our high-end shorts.
The Entrata short is where we bring all that knowledge and experience into a short that just plain works. The fabric is just the right weight with just the right stretch and with a matte finish that looks just right. The KISS Air2 seat pad is just right, as is the GIRO3 leg gripper. And the short fits just right because we obsess over the fit of every short we make.
We wanted this short to be just right for many years to come, so we stitch on the logos and stitch in the reflective panels on the back. There are no logos to peel off, and everything is stitched down securely.
This short gives you every reason to step up to Castelli.
- KISS Air2 seat pad for all-day comfort
- Pro Dry matte Lycra for good compression and moisture management
- 8-panel construction for perfect fit
- Rear reflective panels on lower leg
- GIRO3 engineered flat leg band
- Mesh bib straps for comfort and breathability

A Better Short
Shorts are an obsession at Castelli. They're the most vital piece of clothing and one of the hardest to get right.
Even though the Prima is our entry-level short, it shows that we won't compromise anything for comfort and performance. It starts with the women's-specific KISS Air2 seat pad. Just the name gives an idea of the process of constant improvement, which started with a soft KISS pad that was improved by making it more breathable (Air) and then improved again in the latest update to use the softest-ever top fabric (2). It's ready for your next big ride indoors or out.
We've updated the fabric to the new Pro Dry Soft, which has a smooth matte finish that feels cool on the skin while being very supportive and quick to dry.
We wanted this short to be just right for many years to come, so little details like the reflective patches are stitched in instead of being glued on, and the GIRO3 elastic has the grip woven right into the fabric.
This attention to detail — go ahead and call it an obsession — is why Castelli's entry-level short is just a better short.
- KISS Air2 seat pad for all-day comfort
- Pro Dry Soft matte Lycra is sleek looking and ultra-breathable
- Anatomic construction for perfect fit
- Rear reflective panels
- GIRO3 engineered flat leg band
- 15°-35°C / 59°-95°F
- Weight: 160g

The baggy-short look without the feel, thanks to the slimmer fit and stretch woven fabric. It's ready for long-distance endurance rides, but it's also a great-looking casual short off the bike.
- Stretch woven fabric with DWR finish
- Extremely light so you won't even feel it on
- 2 front pockets and 1 zippered rear pocket
- Stretch waistband with zippered front opening
- Scorpion button logo
There are those days when a baggy short just seems like the right look. But you always debate whether you're willing to compromise comfort for that look, and you end up wearing Lycra®. So we set out to make a better baggy. We reached for a stretch woven fabric that gives great stretch but in an unbelievably lightweight yet durable fabric. We gave it a DWR finish so mud and water roll-off. We gave the short two top-opening pockets like jeans so that whatever you put in there won't fall out. We made the cut fairly close to the body so you look good off the bike but the short doesn't balloon out when you're on the bike. It all just kinda disappears. The short doesn't have its own seat pad, so wear this over your favorite Castelli short. The Superleggera is a good choice for warmer weather, or the Unlimited if you want the extra pockets.
