Castelli had some seriously interesting stuff to show us at their stand..

They’ve got a new selection of Bellissima kit that includes racey red sports bras that look a bit ‘Victoria’s Secret’, tank tops, nautical stripes and more. At first we weren’t too sure, then it dawned on us that there’s really no reason fashion and function have to be separated – and all the kit boasts great technical fabrics.

The brand are also demonstrating a real drive to provide women with race focused, technical kit – with a new aero jersey and seamless bibs. On top of all that, they’ve given us good kit for bad weather  – with Out Dry (super waterproof) gloves and a new packable with tons of reflective features and drawstrings to prevent windy weather flapping.
