The Castelli Espresso W Short is designed to be the go-to piece you instinctively reach for after every wash—no matter the ride ahead. Built for all-day comfort and everyday versatility, it starts with Castelli’s ultra-soft Espresso Doppio fabric, which provides a smooth, stretchy feel that molds to your body without being restrictive. The tailored fit stays perfectly in place through every pedal stroke, while raw-cut leg endings with silicone grippers ensure the short remains secure and your tan lines stay crisp. A stretch mesh rear pocket adds a touch of extra functionality for stashing small essentials on the go.

Comfort is elevated with Castelli’s top-tier Progetto X2 Air Donna seat pad, delivering dual-layer cushioning and next-to-skin softness that holds up on your longest rides. Stretch mesh bib straps enhance ventilation and stay comfortably in place without binding. Reflective tabs on the back increase visibility in low-light conditions, rounding out the thoughtful details. Weighing just 156g and ideal for temperatures ranging from 15°C to 35°C (59°F to 95°F), the Espresso W Short blends performance, comfort, and everyday practicality—making it a reliable choice for everything from training rides to weekend adventures.
