The Castelli Espresso W DT bib short excels in its unique composition. The Espresso Doppio fabric is specially designed for comfort and a perfect fit, contributing to an optimal cycling experience. The raw-cut leg ends have silicone grippers to prevent the short's legs moving, and the stretchy mesh bib straps provide extra ventilation and comfort. The Progetto X2 Air seamless padding offers all-day comfort, ideal for longer rides. The Espresso bib short is suitable for temperatures from 5 to 35°C and ensures excellent breathability without feeling tight or restrictive.
Extra features
In addition to the features described above, the Castelli Espresso W DT bib short offers a number of extras that make it an absolute top choice. A back pocket offers handy storage space for small items. The reflective tabs increase visibility and, therefore, your safety while riding in different light conditions. Attention to detail is clear from the finishing touches, such as the crossed bib straps that are extra flexible; for example, these straps make going to the toilet easier because you don't have to take off the whole short. In addition, the bib short dries quickly after washing or sweating. Factors like these make Espresso W DT bib short an extremely practical choice for every bike ride!

Fine chamois
Chamois is very fine, also compatible with longer trips. Do buy a size bigger with Castelli than you are used to. I am normally a size xs-s, but really need an M here.

Fine trousers
I have tried different cycling shorts in the meantime, but long rides I prefer cycling with the X2 Chamois (100-250km).
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Good cycling shorts for spring and summer with a chic look.
The trousers have a very chic look, thanks to the deep black colour. The material feels soft and comfortable. The braces do not pinch and the trousers sit high enough in terms of waist. In terms of chamois, I like to compare it to my other Assos trousers; the chamois is also very pleasant. It is slightly thicker, but narrower compared to Assos. I enjoy these cycling trousers a lot, although it is a slightly thinner fabric (it doesn't shine through), but I use these trousers especially when it is warmer. Spring/summer period. I myself am 1.72 and fluctuate between 65-70kg and wear size medium.

Pricey but very comfortable cycling shorts
Soft fabric that fits nicely to the skin. Most important for me a wonderfully comfortable supple chamois. Information from seller is correct. Highly recommended.
