Castelli Body Paint 2.0 Speed Suit - 2012

Castelli work with the Garmin-Cervélo team to outfit them with the fastest clothing in the world. The Body Paint 2.0 Speed suit confirms that ethos with real world results. Here you get the same product you see in the magazines and on TV on some of the fastest TT guys in the world. Body Paint technology and years of perfecting the fit are some of the key ingredients in making this speedsuit cut through the wind better than almost any other suit ever created, and certainly faster than anything you can buy.

Body Paint 2.0
Body paint is Castelli's fastest and most comfortable technology. The range is designed to feel as if you're not wearing anything at all, this impressive technical feat is achieved in the details; Integrated grippers with no seams to chafe the skin and no elastic band to compress and cut off your circulation.

The Minimal flatlock stitching used through-out is specially engineered to feel like there is nothing against the skin. Body Paint 2.0 adds new technologies to further improve performance and enhance comfort:

• Aero Dimples: it’s impossible to maintain laminar airflow over your moving leg, so Castelli engineered dimples right into the fabric to induce flow separation and reduce aerodynamic drag. The structure is knit right into the fabric, so there’s nothing to chafe or wear out.
• Giro³ Leg Grippers: instead of stitching silicone elastic to the short, Castelli knit the grip material directly into the short in a 5cm-wide band that gently compresses while securely holding the short in place. It lies completely flat for improved aerodynamics.

• 1. Skin care layer: A four-way stratch, microdenier, seamless, bacteriostatic layer made to adapt to the shape of your body and saddle without any folds in the fabric.
• 2. Seamless integrated technology cushioning layer: Multi-density foam with infinitely variable thickness. The thickness of the pad is engineered to place the padding where you need it most for maximum comfort.
• 3. Viscous comfort inserts: Perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ishial and perineum pressure areas.
