First thing you'll notice when you pull the Women's Tutto Nano on is the snug stretch fit. This is thanks to the highly flexible Nano Flex 3G fabric, as found in Castelli's superb Sorpasso tights. This close fit not only saves precious energy but less flapping boosts warmth too. Speaking of warmth, the fleece inner is great at trapping body heat and the tighter knit of the fabric lets less air through than traditional thermal jersey fabrics, enhancing warmth still further. Next comes Castelli’s proprietary nanotechnology water-repellent finish. When you're cycling in the dry you'll not notice it. However, on a damp and drizzly autumn day, it comes into its own, fending off light rain and wet roads, keeping you comfortable for longer. Spring and autumn days are shorter and so you'll also be pleased to find 360° reflectivity, keeping you visible as the night draws in. An easy-sliding KK® Vislon® zipper with rubberized pull and the silicone gripper elastic finish the jersey in style. If you're looking to upgrade your cool-weather cycling kit, the Women's Tutto Nano ROS Jersey is a great place to start. Compared to a traditional thermal jersey it's a definite step up in performance.
Thanks to windproof GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ X-Fast fabric, the Estremo Winter Cycling Gloves offer complete protection from the iciest of winter winds. To the inside, a fleece liner feels brilliantly cosy and in combination with the windproof outer offers excellent insulation to prevent heat loss. The outer surface is treated with a DWR water-repellent finish to shed rain and spray before it's absorbed. Across the palm, the silicone print provides grip in all weathers while the pre-curved construction allows a more natural feel for your handlebars. The extended cuff provides a secure seal against the elements and the Velcro® closure provides an easy to adjust and firm fit.
Taking their exemplary Alpha ROS 2 jacket and adding Polartec® Alpha® active insulation, the Alpha Ultimate Insulated Jacket sets a new benchmark for winter cycling jackets. If you’re serious about your winter training, it’s essential. Polartec® Alpha® Warmth without weight is made possible thanks to the Polartec® Alpha® active insulation. Created specifically for highly aerobic activities, Alpha® gives you incredible warmth while maintaining superb moisture control. As your efforts rise and fall in synchrony with the terrain, it keeps you brilliantly comfortable. Two-Layer Construction The outer layer is made from waterproof Polartec® NeoShell®. With its four-way stretch, it gives a snug but flexible fit for efficient pedalling while preventing rain from getting inside. Critical seams are taped externally to prevent water from seeping in. It’s breathable too, preventing excess sweat build-up. Separate to the outer is the insulated Alpha layer mentioned above. This features its own zipper separate from the zipper of the outer layer. This lets you choose how you want to ventilate and regulate temperature. During a climb or hard efforts open up the outer to boost airflow. This keeps you drier and sweat-free for when you zip back up for the fast downhill or you back off the pace. Performance Features All the details needed for a comfortable winter ride have been honed. A no-sew bonded waist hem gives a snug and flat fit. Anatomic cuffs work with winter gloves to fully seal out the elements. And reflective Reflex details keep you more visible in low light.
When seeking to create a base layer for freezing cold days, Castelli’s design team turned to the insulating power of Polartec® Alpha®. What they found is that on its own it tended to feel a bit too damp and clammy for use as a stand-alone base layer. However, paired up with a quick-wicking base it offered superb warmth and comfort. The result is the Cold Days 2nd Layer Jersey. Thanks to Polartec® Alpha®, this cycling top is incredibly lightweight, soft and yet offers superb insulation against the cold. It certainly won't weigh you down or get in the way but still retains incredible levels of warmth. It’s the perfect mid-layer to complement your favourite winter base layer. Details have also been carefully designed for mid-layer comfort. A half-zip allows you to vent but lessens bulk over the torso. It's also slightly off-centre, ensuring it doesn't interfere with the zips on your outer jacket or jersey. The high neck offers a warm seal against the cold while the close fit lets you tuck it into your tights or leave it outside.
Made from custom-engineered fabrics, the Women's Giro 104 Competizione Jersey (Ciclamino) offers superb levels of comfort and moisture management. With an eco-aware construction, using 100% recycled fabrics, it's also kinder for the environment. Velo Light fabric, made by performance-fabric experts Sitip, is deployed to the front and the back of the jersey. This material is quick to deal with sweat, keeping you comfortably dry as you apply ever more power to the pedals. The sleeves, meanwhile, use a 3D mesh fabric, giving a sleek finish and ensuring excellent breathability. If you do get too warm, the full-length front zipper makes it easy to boost airflow and regulate body temperature. While pro riders squeeze into ever tighter jerseys, the Women's Giro 104 Competizione Jersey has a tailored fit more suited towards us amateurs who perhaps like a bit more space (particularly after a cafe/cake stop). While the fit is still streamlined, it's a more generous cut than Castelli's pro jerseys and the stretch fabrics also help in this regard, making it easy to move. At the waist, the silicone gripper prevents the jersey from riding up and three rear pockets offer space for all your cycling essentials.
The Graffiti Cycling Armwarmers are a cycling accessory that prove their worth year-round. Thanks to the use of insulating Thermoflex fabric, they're ideally suited to wear on an early summer morning start or to take off the bite of cooler spring and autumn temperatures. The anatomic cut ensures they fit comfortably when you're in a riding position. And with silicone grippers, they hold tight under your jersey sleeves.
Designed for cool riding conditions the LW Bib Tights have an upper very similar to the Omloop bib shorts, but with extra thermal protection over the front of the knees and Nano Light fabric lowers for water repellency against road spray. This construction makes for incredible comfort and the lack of resistance around the knee makes them feel almost like shorts when pedalling. The mesh upper allows for excellent breathability and allows you to tailor warmth levels with your base layer. For long-ride comfort, you have the Progetto X2 Air Seatpad utilising ventilating perforations to keep you cooler and dryer on endurance road rides. The design allows air and moisture to flow directly to the surface fabric for quick evaporation maintaining dryness. The seat pad is constructed in 3 layer components, each dedicated to a specific purpose to create the most comfortable seat pad available. For milder weather, and high-intensity cold-weather training the LW Bib Tights strike a perfect balance of protection, warmth and freedom of movement. Whether you're on a mild-temperature long winter base ride or hitting some early season intervals these are the perfect option.
The Icon Race Gloves are minimalist in design, with just the features you need for comfort and protection with no fuss or loss of dexterity. The snug fit, lightweight fabric and fewer seams give an impressive barely-there feel. The 2-layer palm, with silicone grip, provides both crash-protection and a confident hold of the bars. The Castelli Damping System can also be found on the palm, reducing numbness and at the same time boosting long-ride comfort thanks to absorbing vibrations from the road. Castelli Damping System As cyclists, we can occasionally suffer numbness and discomfort in the hands, simply from prolonged periods of gripping the bars. The Castelli Damping System seeks to address this issue by carefully positioning a combination of cushioning foams and protection in key zones across the palm, providing damping from road vibration and increasing control and comfort.
When temperatures rise during the height of summer the Castelli Summer headband helps keep sweat away from the eyes and preventing that familiar sting as you ride.
Thanks to the use of 3D closed mesh fabric, the Pro Mesh BL Short Sleeve Base Layer is quick to remove excess sweat from your skin, ensuring your body is kept dry and at a stable temperature. At the same time, this also means you don't get cold, clammy and uncomfortable from excess sweat build-up, even when the pace slows, or you pull over for a well-earned coffee. Even in cold conditions, it can be deployed below a winter-weight base layer to boost sweat-wicking to avoid the dreaded chill from too much moisture build-up. Pro by name and pro by nature, it's an essential addition to any dedicated cyclist's wardrobe.
Made from lightweight Meryl® Skinlife yarns and featuring mesh zones over the top of the foot and ankle, the Women’s Superleggera 12 Cycling Socks excel in the heat of summer. A mid-foot support band enhances comfort while antimicrobial silver ions prevent the build-up of odours when the going gets sweaty.
As dropped bar bikes become more versatile, with wider tyres, more relaxed geometries and riders heading off the beaten track for adventures, the Unlimited Allroad Cycling Jersey matches this more laid-back, relaxed style of riding. That’s not to say it’s lacking in performance, far from it. Castelli knows a thing or two about keeping you comfortable, and here they use a high-performance fabric to keep you feeling dry and fresh, wherever you’re exploring. The fit of the jersey is more generous than Castelli’s usual ‘race fit’, the focus on easy mobility and comfort, rather than aerodynamic performance. The relaxed style also extends to the no-sew sleeve ends while a waist gripper keeps the jersey in place. At the back, 3 large pockets and a zipped pocket offer up space for essentials you want close to hand and don’t want to stash in your handlebar or frame bag.
