I saw this super bargain price Castelli shirt and shorts posted over on the road buying advice section, now both a jersey & shorts for £33 + del seems to good to be true, must be fake right?

I'll pass, it's blatantly fake, just because some Castelli Twitter account says it's real doesn't make any difference; I've never come across a Castelli "Coolmax Pad" before; kiss3 or progetto yes, but not coolmax!

Took a punt on a jersey. I was looking for some new commute jerseys so even if it's a bad fake nothing really is lost (so long as it arrives).

Wonder if they are bibs.

What sizing do you tend to go for please ITB?

Edit: Just noticed they are using the same sizing chart for castelli as for scott.
