According to the product specialist

Pros
-
The three integrated pockets offer a surprising amount of storage space, which is especially useful on rides where you don't want to use an extra bag.
The breathable mesh back panel and the lightly compressing fabric provide good ventilation and support, even in hot weather and during high-intensity cycling.
The ideal cycling shorts for warm conditions during indoor training.
The 195 g/m² Lycra material is even thinner and airier, but not transparent.
The Mesh sides and minimalist braces create the most breathable Castelli bib short.
The Skin Care layer of the Progetto X² Air chamois provides frictionless and cool comfort on the bike.
The regularFit offers an ideal balance between performance and comfort for long days on your bike.
The Type.429 fabric brings durability and breathability together, perfect for hot weather.
The X-frame construction stabilises the short on the rider's back and keeps the seat pad perfectly in place.
The chamois offers exceptional cushioning and support, which is ideal for long rides or high-intensity cycling.
Cons
-
With a single-density construction, the seat pad has a relatively simple design, which means it offers less support for some cyclists on very long or very intense rides. For most rides, however, the comfort level is more than adequate.
By not using the full Progetto X² Air chamois, the Castelli Insider 2 is less comfortable than other Castelli bib shorts.
With its focus on long rides and comfort, this bib short is slightly less suitable for short high-intensity rides, which is where Assos' Equipe collection excels.
