RCS Sport and Castelli have unveiled the Dubai Tour 2014 leader’s jersey. The four race jerseys, designed by the Italian fashion brand Versace and produced by Castelli, will be worn by the leaders of each race classification.

Ahead of the kickoff of world cycling’s 2014 season, Castelli and Slipstream Sports today unveiled the 2014 Garmin-Sharp team kit along with a new collaboration with global conservation organization WWF and the team’s official off-bike athletic footwear and clothing sponsor New Balance.

Creating clothing for athletes at the highest level of the sport is the most demanding proving ground for Castelli. Ryder Hesledal will not only be reaping the benefits of his lightweight Cervélo R5ca bike on the epic Giro mountain stages, the super light weight and quick drying Castelli Inferno shorts and Climbers jersey gave him an extra advantage in the big mountains. CLIMBERS JERSEY – its almost impossible to see the difference between the Garmin Aero Race jersey and the Climbers jersey on television. Made from our super light weight Strada Light 3D mesh, and an aero Velocity fabric, it’s cut to hug the torso and to eliminate any excess fabric flapping when battling into the wind.

Sharp eyes will notice how many pro riders from other teams use the original Gabba with the logos blacked out. Some other brands have tried to copy it, but pros know they’re at a disadvantage if they don’t have a real Gabba. Products like the Gabba WS Jersey define Castelli. Based on pro rider needs, created to offer a tangible competitive advantage, and developed in a no-compromise pursuit of performance.

The weather for Stage 3 of Volta a Catalunya (2012) was shocking with rain, sleet, snow and cold temperatures. Perfect condition for wearing the Gabba. Luca Paolini (Team Katusha) well protected from the elements with the tight-fitting non-branded aero Gabba jersey. Supplying the Italian National Cycling Team, Castelli not only supply the race jersey and short, but the full aero-wardrobe, including Sanremo SpeedSuit, Body Paint SpeedSuit, Gabba WS Jersey, Aero Shoe-cover’s etc. Right image: Tour ...
