Description
"The Do-Everything Bibtight"
The Castelli Men's Unlimited Trail Bibtight is a do-everything bibtight with added storage, for all your adventures. Nano Flex 3G fabric to keep you warm and comfortable and protect you from light rain and wet roads. Two large cargo-style pockets. Designed for gravel riding but ready for adventure or endurance rides, or if you just want extra pockets.
Even though the temperatures start to drop in the fall, that doesn't mean you should stop heading out on gravel adventures. The Unlimited Trail Bibtight offers exceptional rain and wind protection with tons of extra storage. To make sure you can be comfortable even on the longest gravel rides, Castelli use their Nano Flex 3G fabric: warm, stretchy, luxuriously soft, and highly breathable, and on top of that it features their proprietary third-generation nanotechnology water-repellent finish.
The Progetto X2 Air Seamless seat pad will also make sure you stay comfortable over long distances or rough roads. Two cargo-style pockets allow for plenty of extra storage, with security flaps to make sure you don't lose anything, especially on rocky roads. To keep you from overheating, the bib straps are a stretchy mesh that not only helps regulate temperature but also ensures a great fit. The tight is completed with reflective details for added visibility.

Reviews
I'll give them five stars now after logging many miles in windy, dry, 30-35 degree F. temps. Quite warm, comfortable & much better at blocking wind than expected while maintaining good breathability.
The product info still says they have ankle zip's which they don't but not really an issue as the ankle fabric mix is flexible enough to go over shoe covers if desired.
About time to put on my studded tires...
Cheers!
I generally love Castelli bibs, with the Endurance 3 being my go-to. Of course, Castelli's sizing runs very small, so you always have to adjust accordingly, going 1-2 sizes larger than most other brands, and I did the same when ordering the Unlimited Trail bibtight. For whatever reason, it turns out the fit of these is a bit closer to normal, so I didn't need to go up as much. At 6'1" and 195-ish lbs, I wear L or XL in most brands, but in the Castelli Endurance 3, which has a very snug compression fit, I always get XXL. In the Unlimited bibtight, XL would have been plenty. As a result, the body and leg fit is fine, but the length would be better for someone 1-3" taller, leaving a little extra material at the ankles that I usually roll up a bit.
The material is good and has kept me warm on 40-degree F mornings, and I suspect they'd be OK a bit cooler as well as in wet conditions - I just haven't tried that yet. The overall material and stitching seems on par with Castelli's usual top of the line standards, and the chamois is also very good on long (4-hour+) rides. I particularly like that Castelli seems to go for chamois that are on the thin side, but dense, so you don't get that "full diaper" feel that you find in some bibs with thick but soft padding. And the side pockets are really useful, though I'll deduct slightly for their unusual design, with the bottom 1" of the pocket being a pouch that extends out from the leg. It seems unnecessary compared to others I have where the bottom of the pocket connects flush to the leg.
Overall, after about 10-12 hours of riding with them, I am very happy with these bibtights. With a couple very slight differences, they would be a solid 5-star item
After many years of using Castelli products I was firmly in the XL size camp but after reading the previous review I opted to try these in size Large. I'm NOT Pro slender but an athletic 5'11 & 165lbs & the Large fits perfect. BTW, these bibs are described as having ankle zippers which they DON'T but rather have reflective strips that may look somewhat like zippers...
Four stars for now as I likely won't be using them until Fall rolls in...
Cheers!
