Full disclosure- ordered in August
"Full disclosure- ordered in August for winter cycling. Warm weather cyclist looking to mentally prepare for the winter - if that is you then buy these. The fabric is ‘smooth-silky’ with a fuzzy inside but not heavy, padding you would expect from Castelli and plenty of length if you are long legged. I’m 5’8” 145 and carry all my weight in my abdomen so ordered an XL. Fit is good, not binding or snug. Only hesitation is I’m wondering if I should have looked for bibs. These so go a wee lower in the low back, Terry brand shorts give me a higher rise in the waist and I do like that."
