Castelli are renowned for making garments that stand the test of time. But one item they produce has been more than just a game changer. It’s caused rival manufactures to sit up and try to keep up, it’s changed what many riders now expect from cycle clothing, it’s caused a tremor in the cycle clothing world that will surely be felt for a long time to come. You probably guessed what said item is, the now renowned Gabba. You know you’ve produced something special when it has an impact on the culture it was intended for, this may be the mainstream culture, a sub culture or in this case cycling culture.

High-tech clothing – Every single watt counts

At Castelli it’s all about speed and comfort. That’s why our primary objective is to development the fastest possible clothing on the market. Just like in racing, being fastest doesn’t just happen. It’s the result of dedication and methodical hard work. It comes from working with the best technical minds in the sport. It comes from leaving no stone unturned in seeking out incremental gains. Each year we spend hours and hours in the wind tunnel to improve our clothing. In this GCN-video Castelli’s brand manager Steve Smith gives an insight into that topic and our efforts. Good news is, that our findings aren’t reserved to the pros of Cannondale-Garmin and MTN-Qhubeka. Our high-end race garments are also available through the Castelli inline collection or the Servizio Corse custom team program.
