Product Description

You could call this a “convergence” product. A few years back, Castelli pioneered the first Omloop Thermal Bibshort, inspired by pro riders who would cut off their knee warmers right at the bend of the knee during a brisk, sunny Omloop Het Nieuwsblad. Castelli set out to make a bibshort cut exactly to that point, discovering along the way that it could be made without a gripper elastic — and that the extra 10 centimeters of fabric actually add significant warmth. Those first Omloop shorts were designed for cool, dry conditions, just like the race that inspired them. Fast-forward to 2026: Castelli are taking that same thinking and applying it to the Espresso Thermal Bibshort. Using the warm and soft Thermoflex fabric from the Espresso 2 Thermal Bibtight, this new bibshort combines warmth, stretch, and comfort in a performance-driven design. It’s the ultimate transition product — everything you loved about the Omloop Thermal Bibshort, but evolved for modern riders and longer rides. Features Extreme comfort in a thermal short, offering just the right level of warmth for fall and spring rides. Thermoflex fabric for warmth, stretch, and comfort. Sculpted raw-cut leg endings finish just above knee. Stretch-mesh bib straps for ventilation and comfort. Progetto X2 Air seamless seat pad for long-distance comfort. | Merlin Cycles are one of the longest running online bike stores in the UK.
