Progetto X2 Air Seamless: a premium chamois

At the heart of the Castelli Premio Evo is the Progetto X2 Air Seamless chamois, one of the Italian brand's highest-performing inserts.

Its design combines a soft top surface, designed to reduce friction, with anatomical padding intended to support the pressure points on the saddle.

This construction helps distribute pressure more evenly during pedaling and maintains high comfort over many miles.

It is particularly beneficial for multi-hour rides, when the quality of the insert becomes essential.

Innovative woven fabric for targeted support

The Premio Evo stands out from traditional shorts through the use of stretch woven fabric with graduated elasticity.

This design allows the support to be adapted to different areas of the body.

Some areas offer more support, while others prioritize flexibility and freedom of movement.

Castelli also states that this woven fabric is 30% lighter than comparable knitted fabric.

This is a characteristic of the material, not a 30% reduction in the total weight of the shorts.

The result is a technical garment that combines precise support, lightness, and comfort.

A Tailored fit designed for demanding cyclists

The Castelli Premio Evo features a Tailored fit, designed to follow the contours of the body without excess fabric.

This fit provides an even sense of support while maintaining the flexibility needed for pedaling.

It is particularly suitable for cyclists who appreciate fitted, stable shorts without seeking excessive compression.

The construction also helps maintain a sleek, athletic silhouette.

Ergonomic straps for superior comfort

Castelli has developed soft, stretch ergonomic straps, whose construction follows the natural shape of the shoulders.

They distribute the support of the shorts without creating unnecessary tension.

This attention to the straps is particularly important over long distances, when even the slightest pressure point can become uncomfortable.

Their flexibility contributes to a sense of freedom during position changes on the bike.

A perforated back panel for better breathability

The rear of the Premio Evo features a perforated panel designed to improve breathability.

This construction promotes airflow and helps limit heat buildup on the back.

It is particularly appreciated during long climbs, summer workouts, and high-intensity rides.

The Premio Evo thus remains suitable for warm conditions, with a recommended operating range of 16 to 35°C.

Thigh support without an additional silicone band

The leg hems use an elastic support band directly integrated into the fabric construction.

Unlike many traditional shorts, the Premio Evo does not need an additional silicone band to stay properly positioned.

This design allows for a sleeker finish and comfortable support around the thighs.

It also helps limit bulk and sensations of localized compression.

Shorts designed for long hours in the saddle

The Premio Evo was developed with a precise goal: to offer very high-level comfort as the miles add up.

The combination of stretch woven fabric with targeted support, ergonomic straps, and the Progetto X2 Air Seamless chamois meets the needs of endurance cyclists.

It is particularly suitable for long rides, gran fondos, and intensive cycling camps.

For triathletes, it is also an excellent choice for specific long-distance training.

A balance of lightness, performance, and durability

Premium shorts must retain their qualities over many rides.

Castelli designed the Premio Evo to combine a lightweight construction with durable technical materials.

The woven fabric, integrated support, and ergonomic finishes contribute to the product's durability and comfort.

This approach makes the Premio Evo an attractive investment for cyclists who regularly use their equipment.
