Be it a chilly morning start or a long mountain descent, the Squadra Stretch Cycling Jacket is easily pulled on to keep you protected from the effects of cool breezes. Coated ripstop nylon provides wind protection to the front and to the back it'll fend off the tyre spray from damp roads too. Tightly knitted side panels give the jacket some stretch, keeping the fit as flap free as possible while also being great for a wide range of body shapes. A high-cut collar lessens the chances of cold winds getting in and a longer back adds coverage over your shorts or winter tights. Reflective details to the chest and tail make you easier to spot as the light fades. Simple, effective and offering great value, the Squadra stretch is also easily packed away when conditions improve.
Rather than get too complicated, Castelli have focused on just the essentials you need in a lightweight rain jacket. Made from Deluge Light 2.5-layer waterproof fabric, the Emergency Rain Jacket achieves a 10,000mm waterproof rating. A waterproof front zipper and sealed seams also keep water ingress and seepage at bay. An extended tail prevents a soaking from rear wheel spray and the long sleeves provide a smooth fit and one that works well with gloves. The only real compromise is it's not quite as breathable as more expensive jackets in the Castelli line. To prevent you from wasting energy and to stop excess flapping material when cycling, Castelli have tailored the jacket with a snug fit. But with some slight stretch in the fabric, you’ll still be able to move easily and it will fit over a winter thermal jersey or jacket too. If and when the rain passes then it folds up into an integrated stuff pocket, making it easy to pop in a jersey pocket.
Fitting comfortably over your normal everyday clothing, the Women’s Commuter Reflex Jacket at first glance looks like a subtle and stylish rain jacket that is great with office attire or casual wear. However, it’s also designed to perform brilliantly on the bike, with the reflex fabric being the standout feature. At night reflective elements across the whole jacket come alive when caught in headlamps and the glow of streetlights. By day, those same elements are barely discernible. . No odd-looking reflective strips and panels here However, it's not just visibility where this jacket shines. The functional fabric also offers outstanding waterproof performance, rated with a 20,000 mm water column to keep the rain out and taped seams to stop any water ingress. Just as important for cycling is its excellent breathability. A 20,000 MVTR breathability rating means less sweat build-up and a fresher feeling when you arrive at your destination. Ventilation comes by the way of a gaiter at the waist, allowing you to seal in warmth or open for extra airflow. The gaiter also allows for a more natural fit with everyday clothing and gives a refined fit both on and off the bike.
Balancing both warmth and breathability, the Fondo 2 Cycling Jersey is made from 100% polyester with a super-comfy and cosy brushed inner face. This traps your body heat on a cooler day and when paired with a vest creates a warm barrier against falling temperatures. However, put some pressure on the pedals and increase your pace, its breathability and quick-wicking characteristics ensures you’re not suffering from the chill of sweat build-up inside. The fit is kept neutral, not too tight and yet not too loose either. It’s easy to add layers underneath and offers easy mobility when you’re on the bike too. An easy-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper keeps you in control of ventilation and 3 rear pockets keep essentials within easy reach. And lastly, the bands on the sleeves and the vertical stripe on the pocket are reflective for low-light visibility.
Two-wheeled escapades, be it one day or multi-days on the bike, can see you tackling the plunging temperatures of night riding and higher elevations, through to the warmth of valley roads and cosy campsite fires. If you love nothing more than grabbing your bike and heading off to discover some new roads and trails, with rides stretching from sunrise and sunset, the Women’s Unlimited Puffy Cycling Jacket is for you. Warm when you need it. And easily packable when you don’t. The first line of weather protection is a windproof outer. This technical outer, most often seen on premium jackets from outdoor brand, prevents the sapping cold of windchill from biting. Heat loss is also prevented via the Polartec® Alpha® Direct insulation. This synthetic insulation offers outstanding warmth to weight while also being easily packable. And because it doesn’t need an inner layer, breathability is excellent – vital for when you’re putting in more effort on the bike. The fit is tailored for on the bike, with stretch panels used around the body to give superb flexibility. It's just as great to wear off the bike too, offering comfort at camp or when getting some food at a convenience store stop. For your next adventure, grab this jacket and you're ready for whatever comes your way.
The Women's Transition Ltd Jacket may be light in weight but it’s no lightweight when it comes to cool weather protection. Both the front and sleeves of the jacket are constructed using windproof GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ X-Mid, used to prevent heat loss from windchill. Meanwhile, a warm fleece fabric at the back works to regulate your temperature, allowing excess moisture and heat escape. The fit of the Castelli Transition Jacket allows for an additional, insulating base layer underneath, providing you with extra warmth if the temperatures drop. For essentials and valuables, the 3 rear pockets provide ample room and easy access, while the full-length, asymmetrical YKK® Vislon® zipper, lets you regulate your ventilation quickly and easily. Whether it's taking on spring intervals or enjoying an autumnal endurance ride, the super-light Women's Transition Jacket provides the ideal balance of warmth and breathability across a wide range of conditions.
A mix of Merino Wool and synthetic fibres is the perfect choice of material for the Wool 18 Socks. The wool component brings with it a natural level of insulation as well as being excellent at dealing with sweat, wicking it off the skin quickly. It's also naturally odour resistant for post-ride freshness. Meanwhile, the synthetic fibres give a boost to durability and provide stretch to give a smooth and snug fit that fits easily inside your cycling shoes. Castelli Special Collection With the weather getting less predictable and temperatures cooler we're delighted to bring you a fabulous range of Special Collection cycling kit and accessories to take off the chill. They're the ideal choice to keep you comfortable and stylish on your bike

Streamlined Cycling The stretch fit and anatomical form-cut of the Graffiti jacket ensure a smooth fit when you're cycling. This saves your precious energy for those last few miles of a winter base-building ride (and hopefully lets you avoid the dreaded bonk). Talking of energy, the three rear pockets let you load up with nutrition for your training hours on the saddle as well as making space for your rain jacket should storm clouds burst.

Winter Winners Winter is where you’ll build your fitness towards the highs of summer form and for those of you who race, hopefully, the summer race wins. And if you’ve got some long base miles on your training plan, the Women’s Polare 3 Bib Tights ensure you can get outdoors and tick off the session in comfort, despite plunging winter temperatures. This is made possibly firstly via the GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® front panels. This totally windproof material faces into the cold, preventing the heat sapping effects of windchill, locking in all the heat you generate when riding. Meanwhile, all-weather protection is also boosted thanks to the Nano Flex 3G on the bum and the back of the lower legs. This water-repellent fabric provides splash and spray protection when roads are wet. Castelli also uses their Thermoflex across the back of thighs. This fleece-backed stretch material insulates you against the cold while also providing the renowned Castelli fit. With its excellent stretch, it allows you to enjoy a smooth unrestricted pedal stroke too. Bib straps are kept minimal, offering excellent moisture management and letting you choose suitable base layers to suit conditions and your own preference/natural warmth. And for those of you training at night, large reflective inserts to the front and back of the legs grab attention when pedalling. KISS Air² Donna Seat Pad The KISS Air² seat pad has been designed specifically for female riders, providing high-performance comfort across all conditions. Next to the skin, a super-soft stretch microfibre offers brilliant comfort. And with seamless construction, chafing and abrasion are all but eliminated. Next, infinitely variable thickness padding offers outstanding support. Maximum thickness and density in the ischial zone, tapering to moderate thickness in the perineum, and minimum thickness at the perimeter.
The Go Cycling Jacket makes use of the same GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® three-layer stretch fabric as their iconic Alpha ROS 2 jacket. However, it forgoes the Alpha’s integrated insulating layer, allowing you to tailor your base layer weight and insulation levels precisely, bringing you comfort across a wide variety of temperatures. With the INFINIUM™ WINDSTOPPER® preventing cold winds from robbing body heat, you’ll soon feel, and hold onto, the warmth you generate through riding. It’s highly breathable too, so a sudden injection of pace or a stiff climb won’t result in you being soaked in sweat. Lastly, water resistance also keeps off light rain and road spray. With weather protection taken care of, next comes the Castelli fit. The tailoring ensures a close, streamlined fit, but one with some space for layering and to be suitable for all shapes and sizes. A no-sew hem gives the jacket a smooth elegantly technical finish while hidden internal cuffs at the wrist boost comfort by eliminating drafts. Three rear pockets give plenty of space to load up for your longest of rides and a large reflective strip across the bottom ensures you’re visible when training finishes after dark. Similar in warmth to a Perfetto ROS Long Sleeve, the Go Cycling Jacket gets a slightly more relaxed fit and a more tailored look for those of you not in race mode. Stretchy, comfortable, breathable, windproof, water-resistant, elegant, and lightweight, this jacket has it all. Get out and Go.
In order to keep hands warm, the Entrata Gloves use a multi-layer approach. To the outside, they have a windproof layer, stopping freezing winds from getting inside. This covers a PrimaLoft® insulation layer, ensuring warmth is trapped inside and preventing heat loss. Lastly, against the skin, the lightly brushed finish offers outstanding comfort. A synthetic suede palm, with a silicone grip, provides a secure grip of the handlebars in all weathers. And control of your touchscreen devices is easy thanks to the touchscreen-compatible index finger and thumb.

Winning Winter Warmth The body of the Hollywood Long Sleeve Cycling Jersey benefits from the use of Castelli's super-cosy Warmer fabric. The soft fleecy interior is incredibly comfortable and retains body heat for all-ride warmth. It's also got great moisture control, preventing clamminess as you dig deep and put in some harder efforts. And if you do find yourself overheating, a smooth-sliding YKK® Vislon® zipper keeps you in control of ventilation. The sleeves and sides meanwhile use Warmer X-Stretch. This is also cosily warm but also gives a smooth and streamlined fit to the jersey. Whatsmore, the stretch lets you move easily too, perfect as you jump in and out of the saddle. As you'd expect of a Castelli, all the details are perfectly in place too. To the back of the jersey, the 3 dropped pockets offer ample space for all your cool-weather cycling essentials, from multi-tool to spare tube to an emergency rain jacket or gilet. Reflective trim keeps you visible as daylight fades and gripper elastic at the waist keeps the fit smooth. For cycling in cooler weather, this is a jersey you can trust, offering dependable warmth and comfort all day long.

Seamless ‘Less is More’ Performance As soon as you pull the Women’s Premio Black Shorts on you’ll immediately notice these are unlike other shorts you’ll have worn. They take a ‘less is more’ approach to design, with fewer seams and fewer panels than is usual for cycling shorts. This is made possible by an engineered fabric that seamlessly changes in characteristic to suit each part of the body. With no need to stitch panels together, comfort is enhanced and gives the shorts a sleek, sophisticated look. Gradient Stretch At the pelvis, both compression and support are high, holding the seat pad firmly in place. The fabric is also thicker to avoid any transparency issues. Meanwhile, the fabric becomes lighter as it moves down the thighs. This gives a significant boost to mobility and moisture management, ideal as you inject some pace and intensity during your ride. And the four-way stretch provides just the right amount of muscle support. Raw cut endings and rubberised yarns keep the legs securely and smoothly in place too. Meanwhile, at the waist, a deep and stretchy waistband holds the shorts firmly in place while spreading pressure for greater comfort. Women’s Progetto X2 Air Seamless Seat Pad The first contact point against the skin is the super-soft upper skin-care material. It's now seamless and even softer than previous generation pads. The next layer, Castelli’s infinitely variable thickness padding, imparts just the right level of support where you need it - thicker under the sit bones and thinner on the sides and under the perineum. The results are outstanding comfort with reduced bulk. Lastly, to really push home superior comfort levels, perforated viscous padding is added under the highly sensitive ischial and perineum pressure areas, offering luxurious support when you're on the saddle for hours on end. Laser-etched logos and a subtle finish ensure the Women's Premio's looks are as premium as their comfort. With obsessive attention to detail, these are Castelli’s most refined cycling shorts yet.
For cooler days off the bike, the cotton/polyester blend fleeced back fabric of the Milano Track Jacket is going to keep you wonderfully warm. It's not just about warmth though, the stylish design gets rib-knit cuffs, collar and waistband with an inner stripe detail finishing the jacket off nicely. Two zipped side pockets add some useful storage space, ideal for keys and a smartphone.

We then move to the upper body and the bib straps. Once again premium fabrics feature, offering just the right level of hold to secure the shorts without cutting into your shoulders. A perforated back regulates body temperature while bonded edges make sure you don’t notice the thickness of a stitched edge.

For a casual bike ride in summer or for those times off the bike when you want to relax, these are the ideal choice.
