Reviews over the

Castelli Competizione

Had this one in a closet before, thought it fit well. So bought another one

Pros & Cons

I like the trousers with a good chamois, you can spend a long day in the saddle with them Sitting. Sizing!?!!? I always struggle with getting my bib on properly. Legs too tight and then around my waist too loose... pull up higher but then everything at the bottom pinches again. Now size M, am 182cm myself.

Pros & Cons

Quality Castelli cycling shorts, the site has practically the entire range.

Had doubts about the size xxxl, still too small. Normally I have xxl. But xxxl fits well for me. So ordered one size bigger. Fits nicely with this size.

Pros & Cons

Good cycling shorts to have several of in your closet. Nothing special, but fully meets expectations. Keep in mind that castelli has small sizes!

Pros & Cons

Nice fitting trousers but would have expected slightly stronger supportive material. Took xxl while I normally wear l

Pros & Cons

Falls very small, I needed XXL with normal build and 1.86m height. Good chamois and fits very well everywhere. Nice materials and aero bottom with rubber on the inside makes sure leg pieces stay in place.

Pros & Cons

Nice quality materials, good color as on internet. Disadvantage, Italian size, width goes well, length does not. Extended in length by local dressmaker.

Pros & Cons

Very nice pants.Good chamois.Because of the anti-slip strips on the inside, it is a little harder to get on.Also sits a little tighter around the thighs than other pants,but I don't find it annoying.

Pros & Cons

You do need to buy 1 or 2 sizes larger if you don't like tight.

Pros & Cons

Take two sizes larger than indicated. Otherwise as description of article agree.

Pros & Cons

A long ride is no problem for these pants, very comfortable and also quickly dry when you hit a shower along the way I know from experience

Pros & Cons

Just did a three-day and did not experience any discomfort. Very comfortable pants!

Pros & Cons

Nice pants of high quality and appearance, with my 175cm/87kilo even XXL is still a bit tight in the crotch, otherwise it fits tightly and well.

Pros & Cons

Despite the sizing from the jeans size, the pants fell fairly small. I had doubts if I shouldn't take a bigger one. Especially if your thighs are a bit bigger this is pretty tight. The chamois takes quite a long time to dry. Just wash it and put it on the next day. It is a great pants for longer rides, I find that it fits better than other brands.

Pros & Cons

As expected, very good product.

Pros & Cons

After a 90 km ride still the fine seat feeling from the start !!!

Pros & Cons

Nice pants but falls small

Pros & Cons

Fine cycling pants, indeed buy size larger than normal.....

Pros & Cons

The pad is top, narrow and sufficiently thick , so rather thin, in this respect my best of four pants I have. Really good. Legs actually sit quite tight and have a wide band. Did not find it so disturbing yet, does not slip. Have ordered s, 173cm, for ass / chest ratios would be there m or l better, but had no desire to a zusammen geknüddeltes pad more. Note: so far only used on Smarttrainer for max ride each 2.5h at a time

Pros & Cons

Do order the cycling pants one size bigger, because they fall small. I had to exchange it, nicely arranged though.

Pros & Cons

Very good value for money, as to be expected with Castelli. Definitely worth the extra cost to be right the first time.

The pants are quite tight because Castelli M is really size S, In terms of workmanship and materials, this entry-level model from Castelli is not distinctive enough compared to short cycling pants from other brands (AGU, Decathlon) in the same price range.

Pros & Cons

With my height (195) and stature (slim), I had almost accepted that cycling pants will never fit perfectly. Until I received these pants. The L fits perfectly: tight and yet the straps don't cut into the shoulders.

Pros & Cons

Good quality and nice fit. Did buy one size larger than regular size.

Pros & Cons

Despite not having the top chamois, it is a very fine pair of pants with an excellent chamois. Also to hours on the bike no problem at all. Very fine fabric and fit
