Castelli has been a fixture of top tier racing ever since the 1950s when Fausto Coppi went to the Milan tailor for his silk racewear. Now based in the foothills of the Dolomites, Castelli's kit has been worn for the last five years by Ineos Grenadiers. Although that relationship is finishing this year, it's rumoured that Castelli will be furnishing Deceuninck – Quick-Step with its clothing from next season.
Castelli has developed a reputation for quality and innovation, with its Gabba the original and much-imitated race-fit poor weather jersey and its Nanoflex DWR coating helping to keep the rain out of a wide range of racewear including tights, shorts and warmers. It's also majored in aerodynamics, with many of its pro-level pieces wind tunnel tested and using fabrics engineered to give a competitive edge.
Castelli is one of a handful of brands to use a full range of cutting-edge technical fabrics in its kit too, with materials like Gore Shakedry and Polartec Alpha featuring.
It's a popular choice among amateurs too, and you'll find its scorpion logo scattered across many riders' kit. With Castelli stocked by a wide range of retailers, there are often good deals to be had, particularly if you're not too worried about colours or are looking for larger or smaller sizes.
Castelli sizing used to be on the small size; I've worn XL Castelli kit comfortably, despite usually being a medium. More recently, it's come more into line with other brands, although you might want to go up one size on the more technical clothing if you're not looking for a skin-tight race fit.
Where to find Castelli deals
As touched on above, Castelli is available via a host of online retailers, and they're rarely shy about cutting the price to remain competitive. The positive for us cyclists is the usually premium price of Castelli's top-tier kit is often available at cut prices, and as Black Friday begins to sneak up on us, the deals are only growing in abundance.
Here we've rounded our pick of the stores that we find offer the best Castelli deals, and below we've selected a huge collection of the best deals available now.
