Why We Like The Castelli Espresso Short
A part of Castelli's new Espresso line that boasts comfort and performance on every ride, the Castelli Espresso Short provides a comfortable fit from the second it is thrown on. The form-fitting cut and Espresso Doppio fabric give us a performance cycling fit that moves with us to maintain comfort on the bike all day. The Progetto X2 Air Seamless pad cushions our rear to reduce fatigue on longer rides, and a silicone leg gripper on the inside of the cuff keeps the shorts in place.

They are really comfy
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Size Bought:
- M
I have several Castelli tights and my goto for day to day riding are the Competzion. When I compare the Espresso are a bit longer and softer on the skin. They feel just a bit warmer on a warm day but not by much. They are going to turn into may day to day riding goto

Very comfortable
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- XL
I've worn these shorts on a few rides and they are very comfortable. As comfortable as my bibs shorts. I'm 6'2" 165 lbs. I bought the size XL and they fit comfortably. Snug, but not tight.
