    It's like the shorts are saying: "Ok guys, here's the target.....but you have to get past all the DEADLY SCORPIONS first!!!"

    I suppose it could be worse.....Castelli could use crabs as their logo.

    Shouldn't we also assume that the 'free shorts' are also free?

    We should all demand our free pair.

    This is the funniest thread! Those shorts are not my cup of tea, I am not sure I would wear them if they were really free. Of course fair skinned women in white shorts never looks good to me.

    The free shorts are black.



    It's the Cuore's that are white and red.



    They are NOT one of the jewels in your wardrobe however.

    And then there is the Free Bib Short...

    ... which has the front section trimed away for a nearly naked feel.



    Thank you, but I prefer to feel clothed on my bike.

    PS Not my misspelling of trimmed.
