Castelli

Castelli has been developing cycling clothing for over 100 years, combining innovation, tradition, passion for cycling and tradition with high-quality materials and first-class design. The roots of the renowned clothing manufacturer with the well-known scorpion in the logo go back to 1876 when the talented tailor Vittore Gianni began to produce sportswear in the heart of Milan. In 1910, the fashion label produced cycling clothing for the first time - specially developed for five-time winner of the Giro d'Italia Alfredo Binda and later for the legendary Fausto Coppi.

Since then, Castelli has revolutionized the professional peloton, developing the most significant cycling innovations - including the first Lycra cycling shorts made of highly elastic synthetic fibers, the first colored cycling shorts, the first jersey with sublimation printing, the first winter clothing made of synthetic material, the first anatomical seat pad, the first collection for women and the lightest, most aerodynamic jersey, and much more. In search of maximum performance, Castelli produces the most innovative clothing for cycling and is the supplier of the Pro Cycling Team INEOS Grenadiers.
