Description The Evoluzione 2 shorts may be the starting point for Castelli’s line of performance shorts, but these short are designed with pro-level performance in mind. The ProDry Soft 2-layer fabric used through the front and rear panels knits a polyester inner layer with a nylon outer layer, providing added moisture wicking and durability. Featuring the KISS Air chamois, the choice of many pro athletes performing, even seeing saddle time at the Tour de France.
Features:
Claimed weight: 177 grams.
ProDry Soft 2-layer fabric provides exceptional moisture wicking and durability.
KISS Air chamois.
Note: Castelli tops and bottoms are designed with a performance cut that often runs smaller than that of other manufacturers. Consider sizing-up one size to ensure a comfortable fit — e.g., if you normally wear a Medium, select a Large in Castelli. Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.

Good value in well-fitting shorts
I've had mine for about 6 months, probably usedwashed for about 50 rides. These are the favorites, always being the first out of the drawer. They fit very well with no wrinkles and I have no issues with comfort on even the longest rides. With Castelli, I go for one size larger than I use with Pearl. We wash them with cool water, but always line dry. So far the elasticity has held up like new.

A Disappointment for Castelli Shorts
I have bought Castelli bike shorts for a number of years and they have always been comfortable and capable of being worn on very long rides. These shorts are, however, a huge disappointment. I have finally figured out what is wrong with them. When the chamois was sewn into the fabric, the stitching starts and stops in a particularly bad spot for me. For about an inch on the front left side of the chamois, the seam is double-stitched (overlapped) and this makes it thicker. It is where, I assume, they were concerned about the stitching staying stitched so it wouldn't unravel. This lump is right where the left side of my pubic area contacts the saddle. It has been bothering me from day one. I thought with a few washings, perhaps it would get better, but it has not improved a bit. I will have to use these shorts for short rides around town or something. They certainly will not be any good for long rides (40-50 miles or more).

Great Value
Castelli designs great cycling clothes period. Of course as a long time supplier to the professional peloton their high end stuff is pricey. But even their lower price clothes is better than most other brands. The Evolutione 2 short is a great example of quality ata good price, even better on sale. You could spend more for lesser quality tha these shorts.

Great Short
I am a Castelli fan for it's always great design and quality. These cycling shorts are in the same quality mold as Castelli's other cycling clothing. Castelli can be pricey so when their stuff is on sale I get it. And I always go up a size on their clothes.
