Castelli Endurance 2 Short

The Castelli Endurance 2 Short heightens your comfort level as you take on the long miles of those ultra-endurance bike rides. Through a combination of fabrics and Castelli’s best seat pad, a rider is guaranteed to have the support he needs to feel good as he pedals mile-after-mile on country and city roads, flat and mountain roads as well as in wet and dry weather. In the Endurance shorts you will be comfortable in nearly all types of weather and on all roads. These cycling shorts provide a cyclist with these comforts by staying dry and having enough compression to ensure no flapping material interferes with a steady paced bike ride. Castelli’s Endurance Evolution fabric compresses enough to support muscles and create a flat surface for airflow. These are not race shorts so the fabric isn’t race tight. It is designed to support and provide a comfortable fit. Another feature of this resilient fabric is it makes bib-shorts that keep you dry under many conditions. Whether you are sweating in warm weather or riding in light rain, water will bounce off the dense weave fabric that also pulls away sweat. On the side, textured compression panels create a smooth surface for airflow and enough compression to help recovery. The bib-straps have been improved by adding in extra breathable mesh so the straps stay dry against the body even in warm riding conditions. On the legs Giro3 leg grippers keep the bib-shorts in place without pinching skin. Castelli’s Progetto X² Air Seamless seat pad is renowned for protection on those long rides. The Progetto is soft with just the right amount of padding without being excessive, but in the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, perforated viscous padding has been added to ensure a rider won’t get saddle sores as he takes on 100+ mile rides. The seat pad is also ventilated to keep a rider dry at all times and in most riding conditions.
