Santini Viper Bengal Skinsuit - Black

Jersey Fit Guide
While everyone wants their bib-shorts to fit close to the body to perform at their best, how a jersey should fit is a very personal matter. When we develop our collection’s tops we do it working on three different fits that define every line within the collection; SLEEK, SLIM, CLASSIC. Have a look at our jersey fit guide below to understand how the different fits work! Remember to check the FIT type on the product page and choose your size according to how you want it to fit on your body!

Sleek "Aero" Fit
Skintight fit, shorter on the front and elongated in the back. Developed with riding position in mind to maximize aerodynamic properties. This is the fit that our pro athletes use for racing. If you like a jersey of our Aero Light range but you prefer a less tight fit, we suggest choosing one size larger.

Slim Fit
Form fitting jersey. Remains close to the body minimizing wind resistance in the saddle. This is the fit that defines Santini. Incredibly versatile as it gives you a sleek profile while maintaining incredible comfort throughout your ride.

Classic Fit
Regular fitting jersey. Soft on the body for those who look for a more classic fit. If you like a jersey of our Everyday-comfort range but you prefer a tighter fit, we suggest choosing one size smaller.

CHAMOIS TECHNOLOGY

Our technologies are crucial to the performance of our garments, and we have developed proprietary chamois brands to highlight the quality and feature levels of differently specced shorts. All the different Santini paddings are designed by us and are handmade in Italy using our specialist manufacturing techniques. We stitch the special curves and depressions on the internal part of the chamois from the inside, so that there are no seams in contact with the skin.

C3

C3 is an endurance high performance chamois, ideal for long hours in the saddle. The C3 chamois is constructed by using an innovative process called Carving. This special technique allows the pad maximum shock protection, incredible lightness, breathability, and perfect fit because it adheres better to the body allowing freedom of movement. The Rooted Gel located in the ischium (sit bones) area allows for neutralization of vibration when the pad is under stress.

GITevo

The technological evolution of the original bestseller GIT chamois with Twist Gel core, the silicone gel that absorbs shocksteadily and gradually. GITevo is even more performing because it is constructed with a Carving process that is able to create thicknesses without seams and sticking, reducing the weight and increasing the softness of the padding. The top layer with antibacterial microfiber and depressions on the surface, offers excellent fit and freedom of movement by protecting from chafing and irritation.

NAT

NAT is a chamois dedicated for those seeking maximum protection, but with a reduced thickness. NAT is one of our most popular paddings and has been completely updated for even better performance. NAT is made by assembling layers of multi density foam enclose the refreshing NEXT gel core that offers incredible shock protection. The materials are perforated for maximum breathability during even the hottest days.

EMAX

eMAX is the everyday chamois perfect for medium distances and indoor activities. eMAX is the evolution of our long running Coolmax padding but better, thanks to the improved ergonomic construction. The anatomical shape and the perforated foam layer with varying densities make this pad ideal for all types of indoor activities and for medium distances. Minimal and essential design.
